> People should fully understand that their actions reflect their character

As if "character" was some kind of immutable attribute you are born with.

The way you are raised has a big impact on how you act the rest of your life. There is signal in this information, not just noise.

It mostly is. People really do have personalities.

Except it will inevitably lead to discrimination and abuse as it always has in the past. How much of the US justice system is based on harassing poor communities using that kind of excuse? Even if one community is actually less likely to commit crimes than another, if you send 90% of your policing forces there, using the excuse they it is just the way they are and things don't change much, you will find 90% of your crimes there. Even if twice as many unresolved crimes are happening in the the other area.

I actually think it's good to be able to discriminate against people with bad character.

If you can know the character of individual people, you have less reason to discriminate against those from statistically higher criminal communities.

> People should fully understand that their actions reflect their character and this should influence them to always do the right thing.

Shame the same standards don’t apply to the people running the government.

> The AI should decide

That is a great recipe for systematic discrimination.

The whole goal of a hiring pipeline is to create a system to discriminate from a ton of candidates to good people to hire.

I find this a weird take. Are you saying you _want_ unaccountable and profit driven third party companies to become quasi-judicial arbiters of justice?

I am saying that it is not good if you had to hide information about yourself in order to get hired. Justice is provided by the courts.

> Justice is provided by the courts.

Indeed. And as far as I know, "courts" is not an alternative spelling of "AI".

The scenario we are talking about is AI having access to court records. The courts make rulings and then the AI works off of those.

Right, and the court decides wether that information is relevant anymore. You're suggesting we take that ability and give it to random third parties

So you’re all for photos on job applications then? That’s information about you.

Yes, I think that could be effective. The way people dress is correlated to the group of people they associate with which influences how they think and behave. If someone properly grooms themselves or not for such a picture provides more signal for the AI to pick up on.

An unsurprising position given today's world. I want to know who the Trump Supporters are so I can ensure they never work for me. Also, no electric car drivers, they are just not welcome here. Or meat eaters, god forbid! We won't need to worry about canceling you later, because you won't be associating with us to begin with.
