Künstliche Intelligenz ist überall und betrifft jeden. In einem neuen Bericht der Agentur der Europäischen Union für Grundrechte (FRA) wird der Einsatz künstlicher Intelligenz bei der vorausschauenden Polizeiarbeit und der Erkennung von beleidigenden Äußerungen untersucht. Sie zeigt, wie Verzerrungen in Algorithmen entstehen und wie sie sich auf das Leben der Menschen auswirken können. Dies ist das erste Mal, dass die FRA praktische Erkenntnisse darüber liefert, wie Verzerrungen entstehen. Die Agentur fordert die politischen Entscheidungsträger auf, dafür zu sorgen, dass KI auf Verzerrungen getestet wird, die zu Diskriminierung führen könnte.
