U1_Lesson5_Is It Biased?

Answer:

What is Bias?

Bias happens when a system favors certain information over other.

This can mean treating some people, groups, or ideas differently based on patterns in its training data.

  • It’s not always obvious.

  • It can show up in what the AI includes or leaves out.

  • The AI isn’t trying to be unfair, but it’s working with what it’s seen.
AI is completely neutral. AI isn’t trying to be unfair. It’s reflecting patterns from its training data. Our goal isn’t to remove all bias, but to recognize it, so that we can make better choices about how we use and respond to AI.
