    How bias enters AI

    ~15s
    AI learns from human-created data. If the training data contains biases (racial, gender, economic), the AI reproduces and sometimes amplifies them.

    Real-world examples

    ~15s
    Hiring algorithms that favored men, facial recognition that performed worse on darker skin, and loan algorithms that discriminated by zip code.
