It will be hard for educational institutions to object to the use of AI in hiring decisions (instead of relying on, say, degrees) when they themselves are using AI in admissions decisions. This article introduces readers to Sia, "which provides speedy college transcript processing by extracting information like courses and credits. Once trained, it can determine what courses an incoming or transfer student may be eligible for, pushing the data to an institution's information system." Sure, a human will oversee the process - but over time I think we'll find the AI is trusted more and more to make the call.
