If you think of hiring as trying to get the best deal: best candidate for the most discounted price, what you want to do is find the proverbial gem in the rough. But AI does precisely the opposite of that. It will recommend exactly the same profile that appeals to everyone else. The gems will remain undiscovered and you will all be competing for the few individuals that according to their profile, are the safest bet.
