Impactful Policy Frameworks
AI Bill of Rights (2022)
The White House's 'Blueprint for an AI Bill of Rights' (2022) outlines five principles to guide the design, use, and deployment of automated systems, emphasizing safe and effective systems, algorithmic discrimination protections, data privacy, notice and explanation, and human alternatives, consideration, and fallback.
This policy will require ThirstySprout to ensure its AI recruitment algorithms are transparent, unbiased, and provide clear explanations for matching decisions, potentially necessitating adjustments to its AI vetting engine and data handling practices to comply with fair employment laws.
New York City Local Law 144 (2023)
New York City Local Law 144, effective July 5, 2023, requires employers using automated employment decision tools (AEDTs) for hiring or promotion to conduct bias audits, provide public summaries of these audits, and notify candidates about the use of AEDTs.
While specific to NYC, this law sets a precedent for transparency and bias auditing in AI-driven hiring, potentially influencing broader US regulations and compelling ThirstySprout to implement robust bias detection and mitigation within its AI vetting engine to serve clients in or with ties to NYC.
California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) (2023)
Effective January 1, 2023, the CPRA expands upon the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), granting consumers more control over their personal information and establishing the California Privacy Protection Agency (CPPA) to enforce these rights, including employment data.
ThirstySprout must enhance its data privacy protocols and consent mechanisms, particularly for the extensive candidate profiles it manages, ensuring compliance with data subject access rights, deletion requests, and 'do not sell/share' provisions for data used in AI matching.
