Example: AI models that help monitor air pollution or manage renewable energy contribute to a cleaner, greener
                 environment.
                 By focusing on sustainability, AI ensures long-term positive outcomes for communities and future generations.

                    1.  Fill in the blanks:
                       a.  Ethical AI promotes fairness and                 .
                       b.  Machines learn ethics and bias from                 .
                    2.  Name any two principles of AI ethics codes.







                Bias, Bias Awareness, AI Bias and Sources of Bias


                 A facial recognition algorithm might find it easier to identify a white person compared to a dark complexion person
                 due to the prevalence of white faces in the training data. This discrepancy can unfairly impact individuals from distinct
                 groups, reinforcing inequality and oppression. The challenge lies in the unintentional nature of these biases, which often
                 go unnoticed until they manifest in the software.

                 Bias
                 Bias is defined as prejudice against individuals or groups, especially in
                 ways that are considered unfair. “Bias in AI” has long been a key area
                 of research and attention in the machine learning community. It refers
                 to situations where ML-based data analysis systems are biased against
                 certain groups of people. These biases usually reflect the prevailing social
                 biases related to race, gender, biological sex, age, and culture. AI systems
                 learn to make decisions based on trained data, which may include biased
                 human decisions or reflect historical or social inequities.

                 Bias Awareness

                 In  today’s  connected  world,  AI technologies are  becoming more important  in different areas of our  lives,  such as
                 healthcare, finance, and criminal justice. However, as AI systems become more common, it’s crucial to recognise and
                 address the biases they may have.
