Is the AI Racist, or is it the Humans That Create it? -- AI Daily - Artificial Intelligence News

Underlying this is the notion that AI are incapable of conscious thought, so they cannot consciously discriminate. However, much like humans can have unconscious bias, so can AI. Over the last decade there have been countless examples of racial bias displayed in AI algorithms, or AI learning racism through machine learning. As a mixed-race individual, I want to know where AI has been racist and why this was the case.
