THE FUTURE IS HERE

Computing human bias with AI technology

Humans are biased, and our machines are learning from us — ergo our artificial intelligence and computer programming algorithms are biased too.

Computer scientist Joanna Bryson thinks we can understand how human bias is learned by taking a closer look at how AI bias is learned.

Bryson’s computer science research is going beyond the understanding that our AI has a bias problem by questioning how bias is formed at all — not just in the technology in machine brains, but in our human brains too.
