Earlier this week we looked at the use of AI in recruiting and retaining staff. But that was from the business point of view. What about the other side of the coin, can you -- should you -- use AI when applying for a job?

The UK government clearly thinks so. New guidelines on the Civil Service Careers website say that tools like ChatGPT, Copilot and Gemini can be used to, “enhance your application and prepare for the process”. However it goes on to caution that AI shouldn’t be used to, “provide misleading or false information at any stage of the application journey.”

Businesses and politicians are calling on the EU to pause the rollout of its wide-ranging new AI Act which became law last year. The act relies on technical standards which have been slow to emerge. Provisions of the act such as new rules for General-Purpose AI (GPAI) models, due to apply on August 2nd, still lack essential guidance.

Swedish prime minister Ulf Kristersson has called the new rules ‘confusing’ and said that he worried the continued rollout could lead to Europe falling behind technologically or specific applications not being available on the European market.

Recruiting, training and retaining staff is very much a human issue rather than a technology one, right? Not necessarily, using data and insights from AI organizations can measure and improve employee performance as well as creating a more welcoming and inclusive work environment.

We spoke with Dr. Serena Huang, founder of Data with Serena and author of The Inclusion Equation: Leveraging Data & AI for Organizational Diversity and Well-Being, to learn more about how data can be used to drive meaningful progress in DEI and employee well being.
