Quick question for the ban side: where exactly does 'AI screening' begin? Is it the keyword filter in every applicant tracking system since 2005? Is it the resume parser that extracts your job titles? Is it the knock out question that auto rejects anyone without a work permit? Every hiring pipeline automates something. A ban would either be so narrow that vendors rename their product and carry on, or so broad that it outlaws the software every HR department on earth already uses. Laws that can't define their target don't produce compliance. They produce lawyers. If the goal is fairer hiring, regulate the outcomes with disparate impact testing, not the technology with a label nobody can pin down.
