Evaluating AI's Role in Enhancing DE and I: A Bibliometric Approach

Abstract

This study investigates the evolving role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in promoting Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DE&I) initiatives within Indian organizations. Employing a bibliometric analysis, the research explores the application of AI-powered tools in mitigating bias during recruitment and performance evaluations. Findings suggest that anonymized applications and skill-based assessments facilitated by AI can contribute to fairer decision-making processes. However, the analysis also identifies significant ethical and practical challenges, including data privacy concerns and the lack of algorithmic transparency. Notably, the research highlights a growing emphasis on developing fair AI algorithms and integrating DE&I principles throughout the design process. This underscores the critical need for robust ethical frameworks and ongoing research tailored to the Indian context. By navigating these complexities, organizations can harness the potential of AI to foster a more inclusive and equitable work environment.
