Equal Opportunity
Domain: Safety & Ethics
🎯 Motivation
A fairness metric: among qualified candidates, the AI should select at similar rates across groups.
📋 Concrete Example
Of qualified men, 80% are selected. Of qualified women, 80% are selected. Equal opportunity. If 80% of men but 60% of women, there is unequal opportunity.
🔗 Analogy
A scholarship committee - among equally qualified students, the selection rate should be the same regardless of background. Equal opportunity checks this for AI.
