My claim is that race is not a meaningful concept.

Do you think that racism is real?
Yes, racism is sadly very real, it is based on perceived ingroup/outgroup differences and as such is only one of such ideologies (I come from a territory where people used to kill each other if they belonged to different branches of christianity, or later if they belonged to different nationality). They are all based on false beliefs and propagated by people who are trying to profit from hate and conflict.
And it’s entirely possible that if he was adopted at a young enough age, whatever this AI is detecting would read him as white too, assuming his habits and diet affected his development, as they might.
Indeed that would be consistent with your claim that there is nothing genetic about race.
