Discrimination is the wrong word. Technology has no morals or sense of justice. It is bias in the data that developers should have accounted for.

    You need to learn some critical race theory. Racist systems turn innocent intentions into racist actions. If a PhD student trains an AI model on only white people because the university only has white students, then that AI model is going to fail black people because black people were already failed by university admissions. Innocent intention plus racist system equals racist action.
