You know what, i’m actually like recruiters to continue using these now.
Usually I’m against it, because HR gets to not do their job at all, and potential employees get fucked out of work, but this sounds great. Let them use it, and then catch a handful of harassment/discrimination suits

Except that they are now protected by the “We arent racist, they algorithm did it” defence, so realistically, only us plebs will lose.

The courts have already established that the user is still responsible for the tool, even if the tool is very sophisticated.

Have they? There is the air canada thing, but that was kinda a different situation, the chat bot was explicitly acting for the company, and made direct claims for the company?
IANAL, but proving discrimination was already hard, and now they can just point at the black box and blame it, so its gonna get harder?

Especially if it gets rolled into other checks, like a police check, or a “personality fit”, which makes it less ambiguous.

That’s incredibly depressing

Yeah, it really is. On the upside, if you get rejected from a company that doesnt even have the time to manually review your CV, that might be a blessing in disguise.

Can’t put their apologies on toast, sadly
