Was this AI trained on an unbalanced data set? (Only black folks?) Or has it only been used to identify photos of black people? I have so many questions: some technical, some on media sensationalism

    @nieceandtows The fact that there have been issues with sensors (which is true) does not disprove systemic racism (which exists). That’s like saying that because I put vinegar in the dressing the lemon juice wasn’t sour. It doesn’t follow.

      Putting the same thing the other way around: The fact that there have been issues with systemic racism (which is true) does not disprove technical malfunction (which exists). That’s like saying that because the lemon juice is sour it means it has vinegar in it. It doesn’t follow. Lemon juice can be sour just because it has lemons in it, without need of any vinegar in it.
