03 / Research findings
The numbers behind the framework.
Hiring screens: 2 of 2 failed.
Every documented enterprise hiring-screening deployment in the dataset was retracted or litigated. A 2024 academic audit found off-the-shelf LLMs preferred white-associated names 85% versus Black-associated 9%.
— 44-case dataset, 2018–2025
Adoption beats technology.
Organizations with four or more of the five adoption elements see an 82% success rate. Zero to two drops to 23%. Scope, sponsorship, and measurement outweigh model choice.
