Amazon scraps secret AI recruiting tool that showed bias against women | Reuters

'They taught each to recognize some 50,000 terms that showed up on past candidates’ resumes. '

'That is because Amazon’s computer models were trained to vet applicants by observing patterns in resumes submitted to the company over a 10-year period. '
