Date: 2023-11-16 10:16 pm (UTC)1) I'm not convinced this study demonstrates anything besides the fact "white" people have all kind of biases regarding white vs. PoC's faces, which isn't surprising, and that the people who code AI algorithms have biases too and/or use flawed datasets (here, real = "generic"), which is something we already knew. Or am I missing something?
