May I Learn About AI? - Can AI Be Biased? - Episode 3

📝 Episode Summary

Bias in AI isn't a future problem—it's happening right now. In this powerful third episode of our “May I Learn About AI?” series, Dr. JR and AI ethics researcher Casey Brightman explore how artificial intelligence can unintentionally (and sometimes dangerously) reflect the biases of its human creators.

We dig into real-world stories, from biased healthcare algorithms and hiring tools to flawed facial recognition and education software. Along the way, we explain how bias creeps into data, how it impacts real people, and what governments, businesses, and researchers are doing to push back.

This Mother’s Day episode reflects on the values of fairness and care—asking if our AI systems can be built to uphold them, and what role we play in shaping a more equitable digital future.
