US Regulation and AI in HR
➤ Background:
👉When thinking of AI regulation, the mind naturally goes to AI-specific laws, such as the EU AI Act.
👉But we must remember that AI companies are subject to the entirety of the legal system, which includes many general laws that apply to AI.
👉We’re already seeing lawsuits and enforcement activities based on such laws (such as the Mobley vs Workday case which I wrote about yesterday), and I predict that we will see increasingly more of them.
➤ Non-discrimination laws are front and center because so many AI systems are biased.
➤ Lena Kempe brings it out beautifully in the context of AI use in employment
👉The article’s name is: “Navigating the AI Employment Bias Maze: Legal Compliance Guidelines and Strategies”
👉It includes a list of non-discrimination laws and guidelines related to employment.
➤ The attached pdf is a summary of Kempe’s list.
