Can they? I'm not convinced.
You do it with math. Measure how many females you have with a C level position at the company and introduce deliberate bias into hiring process (human or AI) to steer the company towards a target of 50%.
It's not easy, but it can be done. And if you have smart people working on it you'll get it done.
You start off by claiming that humans can't recognise their biases and end up by saying that there's no problem because humans can recognise their biases so well they can programme it out of AI.
Which is it?
Why is 50% the target?
Just as we stopped beating our chest with fist when angry, humans can understand pattern and forcefully prevent them.
