'I lost my job after AI interview': Surge in tech tools used to recruit staff

A make-up artist says she lost her job at a leading brand after an AI recruitment tool using facial recognition technology marked her down for her body language.
Companies are increasingly using AI to scan CVs and score candidates as well as to analyse body language and facial expressions in video interviews.
New figures show the UK ranks second among countries using artificial intelligence in recruiting and human resources.
Her former employer said the visual recognition accounted for less than 1% of her assessment.”

HR staff is sweating right now lol

[@QH96]

Probably a good thing. Unlike HR, Ai will be unbiased.

[@Jiwa-Money-Sdn-Bhd]

@@QH96 true true

[@19Allan91]

​@@QH96AI can be biased. It depends on what information was used to train the AI.

[@arirose4747]

​@@QH96Exactly!

[@TomNook.]

Our HR is one person, outsourced.

[@rg31404]

what the hell kind of reporting is this? why was she 'furloughed' as she claims? this report includes no information on how AI was used in this situation.

[@TheEmperor000]

So, let me get this straight: She applied for a job, and then got fired from the current one. Reason is AI. Just, how, why, what? They forgot to add the story and just bashed AI 😂

[@asmith9140]

If ai is selecting then use ai to write your cv

[@georgechristou7982]

as if there's only one ai

[@AnP865]

The AI wasn't reading her CV. It was reading her body language. It's a lot more scary.

[@365_Pussycat]

​@@AnP865use an AI webcam software.

[@Ida-Adriana]

I think AI has been doing a lot of stuff, nothing works anymore

[@thehumancanary131]

According to an AI spokesperson when asked to comment on the video - "we don't need yumans 'cos our branes be bigger."

[@annalisavajda252]

So her job involves working with human beings but the non human didn't like her body language so they fired her? Her job performance should be based on customer satisfaction imo. Just like self checkouts now though I guess people don't value cashiers and human interaction anyway some facial recognition machine will soon just make cosmetic suggestions based on complexion type etc. SMH.

[@mrwinston_thepug]

it was a job interview. people dont get fired during an interview.

[@rolandnelson6722]

Nothing could possibly be worse than human recruiters.

[@dondraper2488]

Her credit score was the final nail in the coffin….

[@bobdidit55]

Has no one learnt from the post office situation. Computers are bad

[@Trav-eller]

This AI stuff is becoming way too deep. Its gonna be AI vs AI soon.

[@HOLLASOUNDS]

Thats alright I got made redundant because a robot took My job.

[@danbee415]

so we need to develop an AI tool for the employees perspective thatll measure their application to job description score. Thrreby, throwing that guys idea into the bin

[@berserkirclaws107]

AI wasn't wrong it look like from this video I'm sorry to say.

[@toram6210]

lol U can’t blame AI Then u should think how to use AI to turn around

[@ryads2451]

I thought its was Adele from the thumbnail

[@steelytemplar]

Using AI in any capacity whatsoever involving hiring, firing, performance evaluation, or anything else related to HR should be illegal.

[@marcusp905]

I am going to put AI by my dishwasher

[@RocketRenton]

There's AI in Dishwashers and now Washing Machines now lol.

[@dr0bert]

useless reporting, sureley AI won't take over make-up artists' jobs. also, the solution to everything is more regulation, got it, let's spend a couple of bn paying that guy, make sure we don't let AI takeover.

[@Sagatta32]

It's sad but it's todays reality. AI chatbots take over customer support.

[@h-e-acc]

So, um… how was this the fault of AI? That was not indicated in this “news”, just another AI bash fest

[@elliottgotaheadache1217]

humans are so smart and incredible WOW definately going to last for a very long time this incredible human species.

[@Lanternsinthesky-studios]

Pretzel logic. AI is as intuitive as a box of hair (no offense to hair).

[@mrwinston_thepug]

Sad she only finds beauty in all that makeup

[@muckraker7942]

Replacing HR with computers would be a massive improvement as computers are not complete douches.

[@andrewgreen5892]

Actually they are

[@TooSlowTube]

They'll be programmed to be.

[@RocketRenton]

Problem is the AI is being programmed by woke, Antifa, leftist agenda cretins from Commyfornia just like Video Games, Movies etc are now so AI can be wrong in a big sense as those who create it with the language models used then have it decide via their chosen political agenda. It's already been a problem in the U.S with these types of recruitment tools with conservatives being in the same boat that this lady was in the video, so much so that a lot of Conservative States e.g Texas, Alabama etc are trying to ban it or nerf it's presence in certain industries like HR, even Microsoft are saying that AI is being rolled out at scale. BT will be laying off 50,000 by 2030 once the FTTP network is complete and even the DWP will be using it for sanctions and benefits in the coming years, it's already happening and there is nothing that can be done to stop it, anything to save money for the 1%.

[@coreyjblakey]

Ai has the bias of its creators. If its an HR ai it will have all the same issues (if not more)

[@oliveryt7168]

Well.. not everyone can get the job.

[@FINEVIEWPRODUCTION]

Soph🙂

[@SKalapishev]

Why would she want to work for a company if she dislikes their recruitment process?

[@TomNook.]

compensation

[@DoFeedThePigeons]

I stand with the AI

[@cubanox]

She needs primer 😂
