    not really surprised, as certain jobs industry will hire certain demographics over others like, any receptionist jobs , they will screen out any male names. Also besides that so many people have reported on other forums that AI effectively locked them out of the field altogether after graduation, hence why you see reviews of certain universities how terrible the education/job finding was.

    So their source that 73% of global businesses use AI, at some point in the hiring process, is a site called CPA Practice Advisor who source their claim from MyPerfectResume™ which honestly it sounds kind of bogus to me.

    Can that many people really be this stupid?

      Yes, and even more can be lazy with annoying processes where they dont see the direct consequences oft their actions when they trust the system

      Just imagine stupidity on a gauss curve. The average Joe is stupid as f. And then realize HALF of people are dumber than Joe.

      If it’s the cheapest modus operandi the bean counters can find to accomplish the task, you bet they can.

          They’re outsourcing the logic to the AI provider, so they can pass the buck and proclaim innocence - in some cases it’s even likely true.

            In California, one such lawsuit was allowed to continhe by a judge. Proclaming innocence doesn’t work when we have all known about AI racial bias and hallucinations for many years, we can reasonably show that they in all likelihood did know the same way a musician can prove the thief heard their song in a copyright case.

              Glad to see that, but a single example does not a reliable precedent make — particularly under the current grip of the judicial system by conservatives.

                AI being new means you won’t have precedent going back 20 years, mate. As I mentioned there is already precedent for proving the defendant was aware of the problematic behavior or risks due to such information being publicly available and commonly discussed.

                Even if what you say is true and a bunch of conservative trump appointee hacks are fucking the judicial process up: you can’t win them all and there are going to be metric assloads of these cases.

                  …we have all known about AI racial bias and hallucinations for many years…

                  vs

                  AI being new…

                  Which is it?

                  What I said is demonstrably true, and - unless Thomas & Alito are dumb enough to stick things out past the current administration’s ability to replace them - we are going to be suffering the effects of the stacked Supreme Court having the final word for quite some time.
