>When you make judgements about individuals based on their race No one is doing that. The algorithm does not take race into account. It's just an assertion that it uses other factors as a proxy for race. I've not seen this proven anywhere. And indeed, if it were true, you would have to admit that blacks are more likely to be criminals. Even after controlling for all relevant variables. Which goes against the standard narrative that it's just socioeconomic status or whatever. >you can't say "it's not racist, because 'racist' is a word with bad connotations and I think what they do is good" without being called out on it. It isn't racist. And the word racist is becoming almost meaningless because how often you overuse it.
