Artificial intelligence can determine racial identity from medical images

The study was published in The Lancet. The researchers realized that their study uncovered the possibility that AI could have a predisposition towards race. Although AI is used in medicine to diagnose illnesses with human-like reasoning and intelligence, the notion of a simulated machine having bias is concerning for researchers. They realize the pros and cons in creating AI that is so close to human intelligence. It can both transform health care, while also showing unintentional bias through its programming.
