Artificial Intelligence – AI

Basic Understanding of AI – What is it and how does it work?
Artificial Intelligence is a computer program that performs tasks based on data input by humans. Data, machine learning, and algorithms behind the scenes produce results – but are they 100% accurate? Data collected could be biased depending on who the data is collected from.

AI Biases – What are they?

AI biases occur for several of reasons:

  • Using training data sets with unreliable or unrepresentative data
  • Decisions that engineers make during the training process, like giving more importance to some factors over others
  • Choices we make about how and where we use AI, like deciding to use an AI application in a context it wasn’t explicitly designed for
