which of the following are true statements about bias in ai?

• ai bias is defined as variance that exists in the output provided by ai algorithms.
• cognitive bias includes conscious or unconscious errors in cognition that impact an individual’s judgments, assumptions, and decision making.
• psychologists have identified 90 human biases.
• biases in ai often result from two factors: cognitive bias or incomplete data.

Explanation:

• AI bias is systematic (not just variance) skewing of AI outputs, so the first statement is false.
• Cognitive bias refers to conscious/unconscious cognitive errors that affect judgments, so the second statement is true.
• Psychologists have identified over 100 human biases, not 90, so the third statement is false.
• AI bias commonly stems from human cognitive biases in design/training or incomplete/non-representative training data, so the fourth statement is true.

Answer:

• Cognitive bias includes conscious or unconscious errors in cognition that impact an individual's judgments, assumptions, and decision making.
• Biases in AI often result from two factors: cognitive bias or incomplete data.
