Robots are learning to be racist, new research has found

Humans look to the power of artificial intelligence (AI) to make better and unbiased decisions. However, a new study has found that the technology is becoming racist and sexist as it learns, thus hindering its ability to make balanced resolutions. Researchers discovered that the better AI becomes at interpreting the human language, the more likely it will adopt human bias about race and gender that lurks within the data it is fed. A Study found that AI is becoming racists and sexist as it learns, hindering its ability to make unbiased decisions. Princeton University conducted a word associate task with the algorithm GloVe, an unsupervised AI that uses online text to understand human language.
