On April 19, 2021, the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) released a blog entitled “Aiming for truth, fairness, and equity in your company’s use of AI,” in which the FTC addresses potential issues of racial and gender bias hidden in artificial intelligence (AI) technologies.
The FTC warned that companies will be held liable if such bias are found in their AI systems, and that the FTC will legally enforce such actions.
