HR Tech Talk | Ethics of AI in People Analytics: Separating the Bullsh*t from Reality (Room Expo - HR Tech Talks Theater 5234)

29 Sep 21
2:30 PM - 2:50 PM

Speaker(s): Nicholas Garbis, VP, People Analytics Strategy, One Model

The AI hype is sweeping through HR tech. Your organization can no longer point to vendors saying “it’s their model, not ours” that created bias in your talent processes. You are legally liable for every “black box” model in your HR tech stack. In People Analytics, AI/ML models such as those that predict attrition risk can be used to direct resources toward specific groups/individuals to boost retention. But are generic AI/ML models meeting basic ethical standards? How to separate hype from reality and to ensure you’re on sound ethical footing with your AI/ML?
 
Learning Objectives:

• What to ask of all AI/ML models embedded in your HR tech stack 
• How “black box” models can generate bias & legal risk
• How AI/ML can be built and used ethically in People Analytics
