As we turn to AI to streamline the hiring process, businesses must confront a critical ethical issue: the risk of reinforcing existing biases. AI models are only as good as the data they're trained on, which means that if the input data reflects existing biases, the output could perpetuate them. Take the gender pay gap in STEM, which still hovers around 30% (with women representing less than 25% of AI specialists!)... These numbers highlight the deep-rooted gender biases in the industry—biases that AI could unknowingly replicate in hiring decisions. So... How can we ensure that the tools we use to build the future don't also carry forward the inequities of the past? 🤔 Learn more in our recent article - all about where, why and how businesses are using AI in the recruitment process, as well as our best practices when it comes to using AI ethically: https://bit.ly/3X8ViE1 #AIethics #DiversityInTech #FutureOfWork
