Sapia.ai, creator of the world’s first chat-based Smart Interviewer, announced that internationally renowned research psychologist Dr Richard Landers is joining its Expert Advisory Board.
Dr Landers is a globally respected leader on new HR-relevant technologies.
He was drawn to Sapia.ai as it has embraced an exciting blend of technical innovation and rigorous scientific evaluation to develop and grow its assessment platform. Sapia.ai has also published the FAIR Ai for Recruitment (FAIR™) framework, an industry-first initiative to help people understand what to look for when choosing responsible Ai technology.
Dr Landers joins the company to further advise on how Sapia.ai can be used to move more organizations forward by implementing the right technology alongside human processes.

Dr Landers believes organizational outcomes can be improved by integrating modern digital technologies, such as AI and natural language processing, into traditional hiring practices.

He is also a director of TNTLAB (Testing New Technologies in Learning, Assessment, and Behavior), an academic psychological research laboratory that conducts research to understand the role and potential of technology to improve organizations in relation to their employees.
Through TNTLAB, Dr Landers recently released research looking at how we can meaningfully audit AI to ensure its fairness.
