HUMAN JUDGEMENT VS AI RECOMMENDATION: WHAT 'HUMAN-IN-THE-LOOP' ACTUALLY MEAN?   AI is now embedded across sourcing, screening, matching, and interview scheduling. Yet one phrase keeps appearing in every vendor pitch and compliance policy: human-in-the-loop. But what does that actually mean in practice? In this livestream, “Human Judgement vs AI Recommendation – What does it really mean to say ‘human-in-the-loop’?”, we’ll examine how decisions are truly being made inside AI-enabled hiring workflows. When the algorithm scores, ranks, and recommends, where does human authority begin — and end?   This debate goes beyond tooling. It cuts to accountability, fairness, performance, and power.   What we’ll explore:   The Meaning of “Human-in-the-Loop”: Is it oversight, veto power, rubber-stamping, or genuine decision control? Right of Veto: Should recruiters and hiring managers override AI recommendations — and under what conditions? The Return of Gut Feel: If humans retain final say, do bias and intuition simply re-enter through the back door? Would it be more honest to say it never left? The Comeback of Cultural Fit? Aggregate Fairness vs Individual Judgment: If machines outperform humans statistically, should we defer to them — even when a single case feels wrong? Liability and Accountability: When a hiring decision is challenged, who owns it — the recruiter, the hiring manager, or the model? Designing Decision Architecture: How to structure workflows where AI augments cognition without replacing responsibility.   The future of hiring will not be AI-only or human-only. It will be a system of delegated judgment. Recruiters, TA leaders, HR executives, and HR tech builders need clarity on how authority, bias, and performance interact inside that system. If you care about fairness, effectiveness, and control in AI-enabled hiring, this session will challenge assumptions and force sharper thinking about what “human-in-the-loop” truly requires.   We're on Friday 13th March, 2pm GMT.
