On today's new episode (Part 2 of a two-part A.I. series), I am joined by economist Christine Polek, PhD from The Brattle Group to discuss Artificial Intelligence and how employers can use statistical and qualitative analyses to determine if their A.I. tools unintentionally violate anti-discrimination laws.

Today's episode is Part 1 of 2 addressing the use of Artificial Intelligence ("A.I.") in employment-related decisions.

Today I am joined by NLRB General Counsel Jennifer Abruzzo to discuss the Board's February 21, 2023 decision in McLaren Macomb invalidating certain confidentiality and non-disparagement clauses in severance agreements, the retroactive and prospective impact of the decision, and whether any other severance agreement provisions may be questioned in the future.
