Lesson 5: Understanding AI Bias

AI Literacy Lessons for Students

How does AI bias happen? Artificial intelligence is trained on real-world data that people have given it, and if that data contains biases (or is incomplete), the AI can end up being biased, too. In this lesson, students will think critically about the training data that informs what AI tools can do, and consider possible ways to reduce AI bias.
