How human biases can skew artificial intelligence tools

#artificialintelligence

Imagine a scenario where you need your car's onboard navigation system to place an emergency call, but it won't. Or arriving extra early for every international flight because airport security scanners never recognize your face. For many people--especially people of color and women--these scenarios can be a frustrating reality. That's because the AI that's supposed to make life easier for us all doesn't include diverse enough data to work for everyone. This is a big problem, but one that can be fixed.
