Yeah it turns out when your entire tech industry is dominated by cishet white techbros and the entire foundation of their education and the production of such models is based on that then you get racist as fuck outcomes from any given algorithm that is a product of that same set of normative standards.
If you have the time I highly recommend reading Palo Alto by Malcolm Harris, it's a great primer on how all this shit got started and why we should frankly just burn Silicon Valley to the ground.
