It's like when you learn to ride a bike – you want to be safe but still have fun. Well, the EU wants AI to be cool and safe, just like that. They want AI to help us pick the best people for jobs, while also making sure it's fair. Let's take a peek at this rulebook and see how it's changing things.
Imagine sorting your toys into groups: super fun, pretty fun, and not-so-fun. The EU AI Act does something similar with AI. It splits AI into three groups: super safe, kinda safe, and not-so-safe. When we talk about hiring, we're into the kinda safe group, especially when AI helps pick the right people for jobs. Let's unpack this idea of kinda safe AI in hiring and see why it's a big deal.
Imagine you're playing matchmaker for jobs and people. AI comes in and helps you find the perfect match. But, like any good matchmaker, AI has some rules to follow. It needs to be clear about what it's doing, so everyone knows. It's like playing hide-and-seek but telling everyone where you're hiding. The EU AI Act wants AI to be a fair game, so it has some rules.
So, the EU AI Act is like a superhero cape for hiring. It makes hiring fair, clear, and fun. Companies have to show how AI helps pick people, so everyone knows. And if anything goes wrong, companies have to fix it. It's like being the referee in a game – everyone plays by the rules.
Now, let's talk about Hubert – a concrete example of an ethical solution. Imagine Hubert as a friendly robot that helps with job interviews. Hubert is like your buddy who's really good at giving advice. Hubert makes sure that everyone gets a fair chance in interviews, like sharing toys equally among friends.
Hubert's job is to make sure nobody gets treated differently just because of how they look or where they're from. Hubert is like a superhero that fights unfairness. When Hubert does interviews, it's like a dance between people and AI. People still have the final say, like when you pick the movie to watch with your friends.
Hubert is a role model for other robots too. It shows them how to be fair and helpful, just like your best friend.
In June 2023, Hubert got a big gold star for being a good friend. ManpowerGroup, a group of experts, gave Hubert the "Ethical AI" award. This award is like a thumbs-up for being nice and fair with AI.
But wait, here's a little secret: the EU AI Act we're talking about is still in the planning stage. It's like a recipe that's not fully cooked yet. Our way of using AI matches the plan for now, but the recipe could change a bit before it's official.
Okay, now imagine you're getting ready for a big camping trip. You need to pack, plan, and be ready for anything. Well, getting ready for the EU AI Act is kind of like that – you need a checklist.
So, here's the exciting part: the EU AI Act and Hubert are changing how we hire. They're like a magic wand, making hiring fair, clear, and friendly. Imagine a world where everyone has a shot at a job, no matter who they are. It's like a puzzle coming together, with AI and people working side by side.
As HR folks join this cool journey, they're like heroes in a story. They're making sure hiring is honest, friendly, and exciting. Hubert and other fair AI helpers are leading the way, showing everyone how to do the right thing.
