AI is transforming hiring, but many companies don't realize the legal risks that come with it. In this episode of "The Moral Machine," host Chris D. Warren sits down with employment attorney Elizabeth Schlissel to discuss New York City's Local Law 144, one of the first regulations designed to address AI bias in hiring and recruiting.

Together, they explore the real-world consequences of AI discrimination, including the well-known case of Amazon's resume-screening tool, and explain what employers must do to stay compliant. Learn about required bias audits, candidate notification rules, public disclosure requirements, and the penalties businesses can face for noncompliance.

Elizabeth also shares practical guidance on managing AI vendors, identifying "shadow AI" risks within organizations, and building governance policies that protect businesses as AI regulations continue to evolve.

Whether you're a business owner, HR leader, recruiter, attorney, or technology professional, this conversation offers valuable insight into the future of AI compliance, employment law, workplace technology, and responsible hiring practices.

Elizabeth Schlissel is Chair of the Labor & Employment Practice Group at Falcon Rappaport & Berkman and a leading voice on workplace AI regulation and employment law.
