The "Biometric Mirror" judges you the way we've taught it to: with bias

When we see someone for the first time, we make internal snap judgements about them. After looking at the person for just a few seconds, we might note their gender, race, and age or decide whether or not we think they're attractive, trustworthy, or kind. After actually getting to know the person, we might find out that our initial perception of them was wrong. Well, it's a very big deal when you consider how our assumptions could shape how the artificial intelligence (AI) of the future make increasingly important decisions. In an effort to illustrate this issue to the public, researchers from the University of Melbourne created Biometric Mirror.
