  is the take-away: bias is not in the initial conditions of the net, but in the implementation of the neurons and its structure; closing my eyes makes my eyes insensitive to the state of the room, it does not make the room empty; randomizing my network makes it insensitive to the biases of the AI, it does not mean there are no biases. I'm finding it hard to figure this one out...

    Bias is in the initial conditions of the net. It's just not deliberately biased by the author. But it still has bias. "Closing your eyes" to the initial content/state of the net does not make the initial state go away.

      Thank you both for the explanations, I saw the top comment (the Koan) and I didn't know what to make of it :)
