AI Ethics and inadequate training sets #26

Closed gitclem closed 3 years ago

gitclem commented 3 years ago

AI Ethics is mentioned in section 1.5.

One thing that is not mentioned, is the danger of (unconsciously) picking a biased training set (which is not mentioned in Section 1.2).

That is exemplified by Google's image recognition that misidentified pictures of Blacks as apes.
