Inside the Black Box: BIAS at the EASST-4S 2024
Artificial Intelligence is increasingly used in hiring and recruitment for screening, ranking and evaluating job candidates. How fair is the decision generated by AI compared with a human’s decision? If you’re around the EASST-4S 2024 conference, pay us a visit at our workshop session, “Inside the Black Box: BIAS at the EASST-4S 2024.” on June 17th, from 10:30–18:00 CEST. This interactive event, designed to challenge and ignite curiosity, will take place as part of the STS Making & Doing program sessions, running from July 16th to 19th in Amsterdam.
Event Highlights:
- Explore AI in HR: Understand how Artificial Intelligence is being used in human resource management for selecting, ranking, and evaluating workers.
- Fairness in Recruitment: Delve into questions of fairness in the recruitment process and discover how AI can mitigate human bias or exacerbate discrimination.
Interactive Experience:
- You’ll read a job description and choose the ranking criteria you consider most important, such as experience, education, or language skills.
- You will let the AI assess candidates based on your input.
- You can step inside the “black box” to make your own selections and rankings, based on the 4 profiles of different candidates.
- You will exit the black box and compare your choices with the AI’s decisions to see where they align and where they differ.
Feedback and Collaboration:
- Your thoughts and feedback on the activity will be invaluable. By sharing your insights, you will help the STS community and our project, BIAS, rethink AI-enhanced hiring processes.
Don’t miss this unique opportunity to delve into the future of fair hiring practices. Step inside the black box with us and explore how we can create a more equitable recruitment process together.
