    Is it really any different than when the formula did it?

    When Apple launched their credit card it was super biased against applicants with female names. They blamed it on the formula.

    Ai is just the newest fancy word for programming.

        Is an algorithm not a formula?

          Some algorithms might be able to be written as formulas but generally no. An algorithm is a repetition of steps to achieve a desired result and does not have a fixed way of representing itself because it could make different decisions along the way in different situations.

          A sorting algorithm is not a formula, for example. Formulas are mathematical or logical expressions that can be evaluated.
