AI Verified TechCrunch’s February 27, 2020 article contains the full quotation and attributes it to Lilian Edwards: “If these are actually being used as solely automated hiring systems, if we just imagine that — even for triage — that’s still a decision then there ought to be a right to say ‘no I won’t consent to this, I want there to be a human that makes this decision’,” followed by “argued Edwards in a follow-up interview.” The submitted version is a faithful excerpt using [...] to omit the middle text.
