Joonko, a New York City-based startup that created an AI-powered job board to improve diversity in hiring, is on the brink of collapse after its CEO allegedly duped investors with an elaborate scheme to exaggerate the size of the company’s business.
Joonko founder and CEO Ilit Raz resigned after an internal probe found she had “engaged in egregious, unethical and fraudulent conduct, which caused harm to the company and its shareholders,” the startup’s board of directors said in a statement obtained by The Post.
Oh look, more woke female CEO's lying to get funding. I wonder if she'll get the same slap on the wrist.
Reminds me of the ''non-discriminatory'' AI prevented from being able to recognize certain patterns...
eventually figured Resume of people with certain combinaison of hobbies and such, correlated very well with worse job performance in a near-perfect proxy for what it was prevented from noticing.
Physiognomy remains the undefeated champion.
It really has legs for a "junk pseudoscience".

"Diversity in Hiring" is the new grift.

It was scrapped for being an istophobe.
As far as I remember that was at Amazon.
With how much you had to dumb down an AI to stop being istophobic, you'd be better of using an RNG to decide who to hire.
CEO.... she...
Israeli founded too. Just hitting all the red flags.
Please stahp, I don't want to notice anymore
I'm glad this one imploded before it became a household name. I can see annoying Hulu commercials for
cJoonco already.Another 'Elizabeth Holmes' SheEO.
