Mitigating Age Biases in Resume Screening AI Models
"…trained an #AI model & applied #bias correction techniques …to correct for biases based on race, gender, & age. We analyzed the effectiveness of these tools in mitigating different types of bias in job #hiring algorithms, explored why age may be more challenging to eliminate than other forms of bias"

Does Artificial Intelligence Help or Hurt Gender Diversity? http://d.repec.org/n?u=RePEc:mos:moswps:2023-09&r=exp
the use of #AI in recruitment changes the gender distribution of potential hires, in some cases more than doubling the fraction of top applicants that are women. This change is generated by better outcomes for women in both supply and demand.

Aversion to hiring algorithms: Transparency, gender profiling, & self-confidence http://d.repec.org/n?u=RePEc:zbw:wzbmbh:spii2022202&r=&r=exp
"Providing details on how the algorithm works does not increase the preference for the algorithm, neither for workers nor for managers. Providing feedback to managers about their performance in hiring the best workers increases their preference for the algorithm, as managers are…overconfident."
