NYC Implements AI Hiring Regulations

New York City has passed a law regulating the use of AI in hiring and promotion decisions. The law requires companies to notify candidates when an automated system is being used, have independent auditors check the technology annually for bias, and allows candidates to request and be told what data is being collected and analyzed. The law applies to companies with workers in New York City, but labor experts expect it to influence practices nationally. At least four states and the District of Columbia are also working on laws to regulate AI in hiring.
