>'facial recognition technologies “always have these racial inequities that get translated, because algorithms are still made by human beings, and those algorithms are still pegged to basic human assumptions. They’re just automated. And automated assumptions—if you don’t fix the bias, then you’re just automating the bias.”'
Not really correct, but I guess it gets at the gist of it. It isn't because the algorithms are made by human beings, but it is because their performance is determined by how similar the output is to that of human beings.
Ie, they are trained/selected by human beings.
