That's a powerful example. And I cannot imagine one single person who would be opposed to having a live human being make the final decision on firing someone unless that person was making a living by selling AI tools.
It appears to me that nonhuman AI managers be limited to making judgment on other nonhuman tools, such as AI agents and robotics. Even then, humans need to screen the AI data before decisions are made. The example given in your article that an Amazon worker making deliveries facing real human obstacles to delivery getting fired shows the limitations of AI for Human Resource evaluations. Out of laziness, we are seeing more frequently, that companies are expecting real-life training of their AI tools by humans based on an artificial metric, which does not usually translate to good human judgment.
This situation should not be a surprise to anyone. It was to be expected. AI and algorithms only work as well as the individuals who designed or wrote these things. How does one expect AI or algorithms to have human oversight? It's simply impossible and will get worse.
Firing by AI? Where's the safety net? Where's the recourse?
Not every problem or issue requires a high-tech solution. This article is a good example of that. With that being said, however, I'm glad I'm retired.

Humans can write laws against HR decisions being made by AI.
Two more years and I can retire.
Good luck with that.
