For this analysis, we surveyed 11,004 U.S. adults from Dec. 12 to 18, 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Everyone who took part in the survey is a member of the Center\u2019s American Trends Panel (ATP), an online survey panel that is recruited through national, random sampling of residential addresses. This way, nearly all U.S. adults have a chance of selection. The survey is weighted to be representative of the U.S. adult population by gender, race, ethnicity, partisan affiliation, education and other categories.

About half of those who see racial bias as a problem in hiring (53%) believe that it would get better if employers used AI more in the hiring process, while just 13% say it would get worse. About a third (32%) say this problem would stay about the same with the increased use of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Across all racial and ethnic groups surveyed, pluralities of those who view bias in hiring as a problem say AI would improve rather than worsen this issue. But Black Americans stand out as the most skeptical. Some 20% of Black adults who see racial bias and unfair treatment in hiring as a problem say AI would make things worse, compared with about one-in-ten Hispanic, Asian and White adults.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When it comes to bias in evaluating workers\u2019 performance, larger shares also say AI would be more helpful than harmful at addressing this issue. Overall, among those who see racial and ethnic bias in performance evaluations as a problem, more say AI would improve rather than worsen the situation (46% vs. 13%). Black adults who view this as an issue are again more likely than other groups to say these biases would worsen with increased use of AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"americans-willingness-to-apply-for-jobs-with-employers-that-use-ai-in-hiring\">Americans\u2019 willingness to apply for jobs with employers that use AI in hiring<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many <a href=\"https:\/\/federalnewsnetwork.com\/artificial-intelligence\/2022\/05\/eeoc-doj-sounding-alarm-over-ai-hiring-tools-that-screen-out-disabled-applicants\/\">employers use AI<\/a> in some form in their hiring and workplace decision-making, according to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. However, Americans are apprehensive about applying for a job with an employer that uses AI in this way, according to the Center\u2019s survey.

Asian, Hispanic and Black Americans are more likely than those who are White to say that they <em>would<\/em> apply to such an employer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When asked to explain their reasoning in an open-ended question, some respondents on both sides of the issue cited potential bias, including specific mentions of race.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Among those who said they would want to apply for a job that uses AI in the hiring process, some spoke of their own identity as a reason for their openness. One Black woman in her 60s explained: \u201cI am a person of color. An employer will see that before a careful study of my credentials and probably be biased on hiring or on pay scale. If AI is programmed to identify qualifications and allocate appropriate salary regardless of race or gender, so much workplace discrimination would end.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And a White woman in her 70s said she thought AI could mitigate bias: \u201cAI would not discriminate based on sex or race. Humans do that all the time.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But those who would not apply for this type of job balk at the idea that AI would be more equitable. A White woman in her 30s said, \u201cThe biases and prejudices (e.g., race, gender, region) of the programmer will be quietly passed on to the AI despite the hiring company expecting a completely neutral program.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A Hispanic man in his 40s echoed these sentiments: \u201cAI reflects the biases of humanity.
