On 29th September 2023, Carlotta Rigotti and Eduard Fosch-Villaronga participated in the Lawtomation Days at the IE University. They presented the preliminary findings of desk and empirical research on fairness of AI applications in the labor market that had been conducted for the Horizon Europe BIAS project.
By combining a scoping literature review with qualitative research in gender studies, labor studies, law, and computer science, Carlotta and Eduard critically analyzed the current state-of-the-art of fairness of AI applications in the labor market. This work was part of the Horizon Europe BIAS project. Of particular significance was examining procedural fairness and establishing a bridge between legal, ethical, and social requirements and technical methodologies.
This interdisciplinary approach opened new avenues for creating a harmonious relationship between the law and alternative measures in defining and designing trustworthy AI systems, such as the Debiaser, namely the innovative technology aimed at identifying and mitigating diversity bias of AI applications in the labor market the BIAS Consortium plans to design as the final outcome of its project implementation.
