If you can't win because no matter what option you pick, equally matched groups of politically motivated people will yell at you, then the logical thing to do is to just do whatever is easiest. In this case that would be to not try to correct for bias in the training set. The fact that Google did try to correct for the bias implies that either, rather than being politically neutral, they are actually on the side of the "woke" group, or they perceive that the "woke" group is stronger than the other groups. Other evidence suggests that Google is probably on the side of the "woke" group. 10 years ago I would have loved to be hired by Google, now they repel me with their political bias and big nanny approach to tech. I wonder how many other engineers feel the same way. I do understand that for legal and PR reasons, at least some of the big nanny approach is pretty much inevitable, but it seems to me that they go way beyond the bare minimum. Would I still go to work for them if they paid me half a million a year? Probably, but I feel like I'd have to grit my teeth and constantly remind myself about the money.
