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?
What people said about racist datasets is true, but it's important to remember who's making this code. Most facial recognition is bound for law enforcement, and coders make this, so a lot of it is made by either explicit racists or white libs who've literally never thought about it very hard.
For example, the border patrol's facial recognition system is made by a NeoReaxtionary dark enlightenment guy
