Model bias in artificial intelligence (AI) occurs when errors in an algorithm result in consistently incorrect predictions, often unfairly disadvantaging certain groups or individuals. Bias in AI systems stems from the data they are trained on, which may reflect the conscious or unconscious biases of the people who created that data. Understanding and addressing model bias is critical to building ethical, effective AI systems.
For example, if a hiring algorithm is trained on data where certain demographics were historically underrepresented in leadership roles, the AI might continue to favor similar patterns, unintentionally reinforcing inequities.
Bias in AI can result in:
While bias in AI models is nearly inevitable, it can be mitigated through proactive design and ongoing evaluation. By identifying and addressing bias, organizations can deploy AI systems that are both ethical and effective, minimizing harm while maximizing value.
