NEC claims their employee screening AI tech will reduce the chances of a person being hired simply because they know the employer/recruiter.
Their new robot interviewer will not only consider your answers to its questions, but your body movements as well, utilizing technology similar to NEC’s new NeoFace facial recognition program now being used for electronic payments in Tokyo, Japan.
It’s all part of the Japanese government’s FinTech (financial technologies) plan. NEC conducted a large scale Walkthrough Facial Recognition System test on its own employees back in April.
NEC won the 2015 Gold Award, for using facial recognition AI to create a concert ticket ID system, from the Japanese Society for Artificial Intelligence. Such facial recognition systems require that your image data is already stored in a corporate or government computer system.
In Australia, NEC recently won a contract to develop CrimTrac’s new biometric identification system: “The Biometric Identification System will not only integrate with existing law enforcement systems, but advance as our nation’s biometric capability advances. This is vital in the current national security landscape, because it is essential to have robust and efficient cross-border information sharing to support the law enforcement agencies that protect our communities.”-Michael Keenan, Minister for Justice-Minister Assisting the Prime Minister on Counter Terrorism
