Summary of https://www.nature.com/articles/s41562-024-02077-2 This research investigates how interactions between humans and AI can create feedback loops that amplify biases. The study reveals that AI algorithms, trained on slightly biased human data, not only adopt these biases but also magnify them. When humans then interact with these biased AI systems, their own biases increase, demonstrating...
