Washington: Artificial Intelligence systems can acquire our cultural, racial or gender biases when trained with ordinary human language available online, scientists including one of Indian origin have found. In debates over the future of artificial intelligence, many experts think of the new systems as coldly logical and objectively rational. However, researchers have demonstrated how machines can be reflections of us, their creators, in potentially problematic ways. Common machine learning programs, when trained with ordinary human language available online, can acquire cultural biases embedded in the patterns of wording, researchers found. These biases range from the morally neutral, like a preference for flowers over insects, to the objectionable views of race and gender.
