Re:Amazon scraps secret AI recruiting tool that showed bias ... by gambler on Wednesday October 10, 2018 @03:31PM (#18188120)
I didn't write anything about promotions. I mentioned tenure and performance reviews.

If you had a way to accurately predict that some company would systematically donwrate you and eventually fire you or force you to quit, would you want to interview there? If you were a recruiter in that company and could accurately predict the same, would it be ethical for you to hire the candidate anyway?

This is not to say that I approve of blindly trusting AI to filter candidates, but the overall issue isn't nearly as simple as many comments here make it out to be.
