Reply to comment by sumane12 in Scientists Increasingly Can’t Explain How AI Works - AI researchers are warning developers to focus more on how and why a system produces certain results than the fact that the system can accurately and rapidly produce them. by Kujo17

Good points! Yes, AI models are prone to racial and gender bias, but the presence of bias is largely due to human behaviours leading up to the model's creation. As above, so below.

Add to this a computer algorithm could be less bias than an average human, but in the same role people will settle for nothing less than perfection from a computer. It also depends on how you define bias. If your analysis is based purely on economic data, then the bias you're decrying is not a bias, but a historic inequity that needs other remedies.
