What we're rapidly heading towards is someone being smart enough to implement an AI that detects if something is racist, and then everyone else who has an AI that is trained on a random-sampling dataset from reality, which we all know will have Uncomfortable Conclusions (tm), will have to filter their AI through the censorship to be sure that it doesn't accidentally notice any crimethink.

We basically need this in software so that AI researchers can stop getting lambasted with claims of racism

So you didn't learn the lesson of the 20th century dystopian future predictions, and you'd rather implement your own and learn the hard way?

well, they're not going to think for the minorities and SOMEONE is going to have to be the bigger person here.

Empathy is an important part of resolution, as much as that sucks.
