XAVIER ST-DENIS –聽Assistant Professor, Institut national de la recherche scientifique (INRS)
Title: The use of AI in hiring: Understanding algorithmic bias, fairness, and other challenges
Artificial Intelligence is increasingly used by firms for human resources functions, such as hiring,聽employee retention policies, and performance assessment. Many use cases are seen as problematic because of聽the black box nature of many AI algorithms. One source of concern is the use of data based on past decisions聽and assessments made by humans to train algorithms. This is seen as a possible source of bias in AI. In the聽context of COVID-19, the use of AI in the workplace is faced by an additional challenge: algorithms are trained聽on pas data to formulate predictions. However, the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in important disruptions in all聽aspects of professional life. Will this compromise the ability of AI to formulate accurate predictions in the short聽term? This presentation will be a brief introduction to the use of AI in the workplace, with discussions of聽implications of the COVID-19 pandemic.
