Can AI Revolutionize the Hiring Process?

Replacing People Isn't Revolutionary, or Is It? While the thought of some AI program doing the work of a real person isn't new or revolutionary, there are definitely some interesting benefits from removing humans from the employment screening process. For example, an AI isn't likely to make an assumption about an individual based on the perceived race or gender a person might deduce from an applicant's name. Unconscious, implicit bias is real. And while the obvious benefit comes from a reduction in labor costs associated with hiring as a result of replacing a person with an AI, another potential positive result could be an improved quality of candidates.
