The details got worse too.. the Medium author is arguing that Propublica is mistaken when they call the tool inherently biased because you can group the recidivism rates such that the AA rate is ~close to the claimed one but then they admit; > One point about the ProPublica criticism did appear correct. Caucasians and Hispanics are predicted to recommit crimes at a substantially lower rate than they actually do. > For Caucasians, they are predicted to recommit 25% of the time, but they actually recommit 39% of the time. And the prediction accuracy for both groups are substantially lower than for African Americans. So the software isn't biased because if you use a different measure it ~accurately predicts recidivism for AA folks and dramatically underestimates how often Caucasian convicts reoffend? what?
