Machine learning is based on sample data, which time and time again has been proven to be biased, producing errors due to racism which then get fed back into the system and perpetuate the cycle. It is not infallible and it does not reveal truths that people are 'worried' about seeing, it's a reflection of current mindsets.

It seems like you're taking "reflective of a reality I don't want to acknowledge" to mean biased.

And who are you to say if the machine's output (ie, mindset) is to be trusted?

Machines are much less prone to bias than humans, that's for sure.
