I just heard a story on the radio this morning about how some companies are replacing sit down interviews with computer algorithm analyses of a video you record on a mobile device. Pretty soon, HR is just gonna be literal robots interpreting the cold word of management instead of an actual person

There's definitely some appeal to it though because these systems are so easily biased. You can say it's the algorithm at work and you're not responsible when it filters out

Spatial posted:Odds are this is bought PR for some lovely machine learning startup that will be out of business in a year and has a few companies running trials. It's marketing 101 to lie about everyone using your product already. The researcher pitching the idea was saying that computers are better because they don't have biases towards things like "charisma" or "good fit for my team" so they'll only measure objective skill sets that meet job qualifications. Hilariously, earlier this week, BBC ran a story in the same fuckin timeslot about how US prisons using machine learning algorithms to determine if an inmate is likely to be a repeat offender. And it turned out the computers were no better at doing this than random people sent surveys and asked to make a decision based on the inmates' records.

Pirate Radar posted:Of course they loving weren’t though because it’s not like they have some secret robot knowledge unlocked, somebody had to program them with how to make the decision That's not really how machine learning works. But yeah, the myth is that AI isn't extremely sensitive to human error or can't develop biases. And it can't find any magical correlations if they don't exist. Asking it to look at inmates' records and find some input correlation that predicts repeat offenses might be a workable idea, or then you might as well asked it to predict stock crashes from star movements. Worst case scenario your entire training data is tainted and the AI finds a correlation that only exists in there and not the real world. The example results you would feed to the inmate-AI is inherently flawed; You aren't actually training against the likelihood of a repeat offense, but the likelihood they will be caught. How do you counterweight the fact certain ethnic and socioeconomic groups are that much more likely to get arrested in the first place? Not by factoring in the severity of the crime since the sentence is also tainted by the same bias.

Just want to chime in and say that I was also called a dishpig while working the job for a few years in high school (ruralish ontario). Was a p decent job all things considered, better than working retail and I had unlimited soda fountain access and they fed me at the end of the shift.

I know I'd rather work dishpig than deal with the public. I did both when I was at uni and as lovely as cleaning dishes for 8-10 hours at a stretch is, retail is just the loving worst thing imaginable.

BioMe posted:That's not really how machine learning works. I mean it is in every real-world system, once they finish loading in all their broken and biased training data and it fails to spit out any real useful results, someone goes in and hand-tunes everything just so until it produces results that can be adequately demonstrated to customers.
