We Know AI Is Flattering Us. It Still Influences Us.

A Substack essay from Prof. Pilyoung Kim on a recent study showing that warning users about sycophantic AI changes how they judge it — but not how much it shifts their views.

Why I recommend it: A sharp reminder that AI assistants can shape our opinions even when we know they are agreeing with us; relevant to anyone using AI for research or decisions.

AI in Hiring: How It Works, Where It Fails, and What the Rules Now Require

Algorithmic Monocultures in Hiring (FAccT 2026)

Venue
FAccT 2026 (ACM Conference on Fairness, Accountability, and Transparency)
Published
2026

Stanford-led study of 3 million applicants screened by a single algorithm vendor, finding racial disparities and homogeneous rejections — the same people get screened out everywhere. Explains why applicants must apply widely to reach a human.

In plain terms: This research study examines how automated screening tools used by multiple employers cause repeated rejections and racial disparities. Use this paper to understand how hiring algorithms work and why applying to more jobs helps you reach a human reviewer.

Why I recommend it: This is the evidence behind advice I give constantly: one rejection is often the same algorithm repeated, not a verdict on you.
