New AI startup

Tezi, a new AI startup, has raised $9 million to launch its recruitment tool, Max, which aims to automate hiring processes and reduce costs significantly. The tool will streamline resume screening, interview scheduling, and candidate communication, potentially transforming recruitment efficiency. Concurrently, a California federal court ruled against WorkDay's motion to dismiss a discrimination lawsuit regarding AI hiring practices, emphasizing that companies must ensure their AI tools do not perpetuate bias. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission has backed this stance, advocating for accountability in the use of algorithmic tools in hiring. Additionally, the Australian Public Service Commission has updated its recruitment guidelines to address diversity and caution against the biases that AI might introduce. In a broader context, established platforms like Workday are integrating AI solutions from HiredScore to enhance talent acquisition and mobility, reflecting a significant shift in HR practices towards AI-driven efficiencies.
