I've used apps that thought I was a monkey but it recognized white people just fine, I've seen racist chat bots go on about how much they love hitler and hate black people, I've saw ai generated photos that produced racist depictions. What I'm wondering is it the developers making the ai racist or is it the code itself that is racist? I don't believe that any machine has reached sentience obviously, but I have no doubt in my mind that all ai I have experienced is racist, all I ask is why?
Sometimes it's picked up from racist programmers, but really it's because AI is trained on large sources of publicly available data with reflects racism in our society. Imagine a child literally raised by the internet.
