I think the definition of racism in this context can be simple. If the rate of false positives for blacks is significantly higher than the average across the nation, then it's racism. Significantly higher can mean "one stddev higher".
- radu_floricica 5y agoExactly my point - I happen to disagree. We're not going to have AI come and tell us the Truth, at least not from day one. They'll help, but not with _this_ kind of questions. This is why I commented, because they seem specifically chosen to be some of the most complicated questions we face. (On topic: blacks could commit more crime then average. They could do it because of systemic racism, but in this case the _arrests_ are not racist.)
