After years of anticipation, a patchwork of artificial intelligence (AI) legal standards has arrived. This series looks at five regulatory developments in 2022 that address AI-enabled employment decision tools, now used by 75 percent of companies. Developments include recent federal guidance from the EEOC and DOJ; draft regulations in California; and laws in Maryland, Illinois and New York City. This first article in the series examines New York’s first-in-the-U.S. requirement that companies audit the AI they use for hiring, assessment and promotion. The article offers insights on the law’s provisions; highlights the imprecise drafting and apparent gaps that are inspiring laments comparable to lawyers’ woes under the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018; and offers suggestions for entities’ compliance, with commentary from AI law practitioners at Baker McKenzie, Davis Wright Tremaine, Hogan Lovells and Jackson Lewis.
