Artificial Intelligence (AI) has advanced rapidly in recent years, moving outside research labs into the business sector. It is quickly becoming a backbone of talent acquisition, but also carries significant risk of bias and discrimination according to gender identity, disability, race, and other forms of systemic marginalization. A different future is within reach as we harness technology’s potential —one where businesses gain the essential innovation and competitive advantages that diversity brings. Disability is an essential dimension of diversity that crosses all others, including race, gender, and class. Like age, it intersects with all other traits related to human diversity. But how can we inclusively design AI talent acquisition tools, so we don’t exclude underrepresented groups, including the 1.3 billion people with disabilities worldwide? How can we leverage the creativity, skills, and experiences of people with disabilities to design future workplace tech that instead increases opportunity and improves productivity for all workers? This diverse panel will explore the potential of AI talent acquisition tools to understand, recognize, and serve diversity through co-design strategies that leverage the skills and perspectives of people with disabilities. We will share concrete examples of talent acquisition tools designed with accessibility and inclusion in mind. We’ll also provide information about relevant initiatives and frameworks that both vendors and employers can utilize to develop and use AI in safe, ethical, and accurate ways that are aligned with broader efforts to drive solid, sustainable progress for diversity, equity, and inclusion. ]]>
