AI Bias Worksheet for Kids
AI tip (Fair data, fairer AI): Bias usually comes from the training data: if a group is missing or shown in only one way, the model copies that. One-sided data: one age group, only ripe mangoes, only adult voices, only neat handwriting. Balanced data: many ages, colours, voices, regions and styles. Reduce bias: add varied examples, check who is missing, test on many groups, fix wrong labels and listen to complaints.
