Downvoted ? Really ? Must have hit a nerve somewhere. "Machine learning's real problem is in the west, which has a very difficult time accepting unpleasant facts even when fair ML systems produce them.' For example, "proof" that bias exists in an institution due to a statistical difference between its distribution of identity groups and the general population. Will be interesting when these type of rules become part of our ML overlords. True story: I took a science course in school a long time ago when my lab partner used the calibration knob in the back of the voltmeter to get exactly 5 volts out of the power source. Found this out only after we kept getting very odd results.
