Partners James Sherer and Shareef Farag, along with Associates Ariana Dindiyal, Brittany Yantis and Fulton Wald, have authored an article about the benefits – and risks – associated with using artificial intelligence in employment-related tasks.
For example, AI can make reviewing job applications much more efficient – particularly when hundreds of applications are submitted for a single job – but employers need to take care with how they use AI, the authors explain. They must continue meeting previously established obligations to avoid discrimination, while facing new challenges in narrowing their candidate pools without running afoul of emerging law and regulation focused on privacy.
The article appears in the November-December 2023 issue of The Journal of Robotics, Artificial Intelligence & Law.
