At last: HR gets an upgrade!

Our good buddies across the pond at BBC News have revealed HR’s newest weapon against to help job candidates get hired. (Oops.)  Yep — HR has gotten an upgrade! Recruiting robots! News I want you to use Read it on BBC News: Meet Tengai, the job interview robot who won’t judge you If this seems far-fetched, some employers in the U.S. are already using robots to interview you on your mobile-device camera — and then other robots (algorithms) watch your interview video to decide whether you will “proceed to the next step.” Look, Ma! No hands! A couple of years ago, we

Interviews done without people getting involved... which is pretty much what people are supposed to do, get involved!

So if I build a robot to interview for me would that be OK? Also has anyone done security research on these robots? Can you see the story?

"Yesterday a cyber security researcher publicly released a vulnerability for interview robots. This vulnerability allows an unauthenticated interviewee to bypass all questions, and be offered the job on the spot. The cyber security researcher said he notified the manufacturer months ago, and got no response. In other news unemployment has fallen to all new lows as waves of unemployed people were offered jobs today."

you could do 10 interviews at once.   
maybe 400 interviews a week?
need to think about the AI, and the bots learning how to interview better and better.

Just start with phone screens, and have track questions, and responses. Then good is if there is an offer, or a second interview. Bad is either rejection, or no follow up. You will want to set it up with a fake name, and resume to start. The first interviews will be rough as it learns correct responses. After it has got the basics start stepping it up to better and better jobs. Of course by then I won't want a job because I will have one selling "interviewing as a service" to people that are looking for new jobs.

I'll tell you this - the idea that AI is free of bias is a load of rubbish. If it learns, we've already seen how Microsoft's experiment there went wildly racist. If it doesn't learn, but asks stock questions, then the questions are written by a biased human, or committee of such. Does it measure some kind of metrics in the responses? The choice of metrics and their thresholds is a bias, as well.
