129. bias in data: who is missing from the dataset (ks5)
Critically analyse datasets to identify historical and structural biases, understanding how missing information can lead to discriminatory and flawed AI algorithms.
We often trust data to give us the objective truth. But what if the data itself is prejudiced? If a machine learning algorithm is trained on incomplete information, its decisions will be inherently flawed. In this advanced module, we will critically interrogate datasets. You will learn to ask "who is missing?", analysing how historical and structural biases in data collection can lead to discriminatory technology.
