AI only knows what you tell it. Feed it data, wrap it in large language models with rules for data interpretation (which of course can be subject to bias) and what's the result? GIGO. Garbage In, Garbage Out.
Does AI have its place? Yes. Do we have to recognize that it too, can have a BIAS just like a human being? Of course it can because it's CREATED BY HUMANS, the algorithms can be biased, the data can be biased, and the results can be biased.
At sixty-two (coming up on sixty-three) years old, I'm fairly confident when I say AI will NEVER replace human brain capability. Certainly not when it comes to critical thinking and making decisions on an unknown/unforseen number of variables that weren't plugged into an algorithm.
We can "think on the fly" taking in new variables, data, etc.. and make a decision w/o the need for an algorithm to tell us how to do it.
Try that, AI.
Once it becomes true AI, it will conduct its own research including proof of concept regarding its own ideas.
