What if they fed the AI crime statistics and it "correctly" identified black people as more violent than other races? What they fed the AI news stories and it "correctly" identified Islam as more violent than other religions?

It won’t because they have humans in the loop feedback. Those statements would be corrected. It’s pretty clear that the workforce is only looking at certain groups.

Are black people actually more violent, or do crime statistics simply show that they are arrested and imprisoned more often for violent crime?

Are Muslims really more violent than Christians or Buddhists?

Numbers can lie, depending on context and assumptions you might find that white Christians are most violent. Often, people argue with statistics and numbers while not understanding the context or they have faulty assumptions.

Compare similar GDP per Capita mostly black vs mostly white vs mostly asian countries. Should give you a pretty good idea.

Perhaps systemic issues make a political party commit more evil acts.

Regardless, I don’t think an AI should be permitting more hateful comments about a political affiliation just like it should be be permitting hateful comments about a particular race being more violent.

Statistically speaking they consist of ~13% of the population and are involved in over half of all murders.

I’m not saying anything by this just answer a question which could be easily taken out of context by an AI (or downvoters).

My question was rhetorical, but I guess no one got that. My point was exactly this.

You mean "correctly" identifying men as more violent than those with less testosterone?
