Abstract of the lecture
The use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) entails enormous ethical challenges. Especially, we do not fully understand how ethical perceptions about AI influence both job applicants and the organizations that use AI for hiring purposes. In this session, we will discuss important aspects of using AI in hiring processes. First, we will discuss that AI is not created equally in terms of ethical perceptions. Indeed, people view the use of AI differently depending on what aspects of the hiring process it is used for (e.g., analyzing CV vs. analyzing one’s social media). Then, we will discuss the influence of ethical perceptions of AI in hiring on the trust individuals put in organizations that use AI in hiring.
We will focus on the importance individuals lend to AI performing its expected role, and how this expectation influences their ethical perceptions of AI, and in turn the trust they put on organizations using AI in hiring. Finally, we will further discuss whether and how ethical perceptions of using AI in hiring are related to individuals’ attraction to organizations that use AI in hiring. Circling back to the beginning of the session, we will discuss that the influence of ethical perceptions of using AI in hiring are not consistent across hiring methods. For example, only individuals who consider it ethical for organizations to use AI in intrusive ways, such as analyzing social media information for traits and characteristics, viewed such organizations as more attractive.
