AI is showing up in hiring, recruiting, performance management, and employee monitoring. While these tools promise efficiency, they can also create significant legal risk if they result in discriminatory outcomes. In this episode of California Employment News, Weintraub Tobin attorneys Jackie Simonovich and Lukas Clary discuss how employer use of AI can implicate Title VII, the ADA, and FEHA, and review key new California AI laws and deadlines.

In this episode, they cover:

• How AI tools can create disparate impact based on race, gender, age, or disability
• Why employers remain responsible for third party AI vendors
• New FEHA regulations effective October 1, 2025 governing automated decision systems
• New California AI laws, including AB 2013, SB 53, and SB 942/AB 853

Listen for a clear breakdown of what California employers need to know to stay compliant as AI regulation continues to evolve.
