Simon Greenman, Partner at Best Practice AI and a Member of the World Economic Forum’s Global AI Council, comments: “We are seeing an increasing number of organizations begin to prepare AI Explainability Statements, as they quickly become a vital means to build trust among the public and meet increasing regulatory requirements worldwide.

“The use of AI is rapidly becoming mainstream in the recruitment world, so HireVue’s decision to be the first in the industry to publish how their software and algorithms work is something we’re incredibly proud to be a part of. We believe that taking the lead with AI Explainability demonstrates a clear commitment to transparency and sustainable, trusted AI.”

Lindsey Zuloaga, Chief Data Scientist at HireVue, comments: “Being at the forefront of defining the transparent and ethical use of AI and software is at the heart of what we do. Our mission is to create a level playing field for anyone seeking employment, reducing bias and providing organizations with a more diverse pool of talent. Deploying AI correctly and ethically, powers a significantly more consistent, less biased, more engaging screening process for recruiters and candidates alike. We believe there needs to be more transparency around its use in HR, this is why we’ve published our own AI Explainability statement, to best support our customers and educate the industry.”
