    Does that not depend on where you are doing the analysis? Because plenty of diseases are more and others less common in specific races. I also don’t know if diseases present different across races.

    But there is definitely a good warning that ai can be plenty biased if the dataset is biased… which historically it will be.

      That’s what the article is about. Because race itself is not real (it’s a social construct humans made up,) race is working as a proxy in these situations. The push is to find the actual, objective factors that this subjective category is a proxy for, and then make decisions based on those objective things rather than using a proxy.
