Why is there bias in AI? Bias in artificial intelligence reflects the environment where it was created. This environment includes the individual creating the algorithm, their experiences and background, the culture of the company/enterprise where they work, and ultimately the society where they live. One might also consider that, so far, artificial intelligence solutions are created by humans, which by our very nature have certain biases. So, given AI is created by humans and all humans have biases, should we give up hope for a bias-free AI? Probably. Should we give up hope to create an AI that makes better decisions than humans alone?
