Covers concrete failures and fixes: predictive policing simulations show feedback loops that concentrate stops until under-policed areas vanish, and an improvement policy that counts surprising discoveries evens patrols; facial-gender APIs show a 30-point error gap between darker-skinned women and white men and prompted dataset fixes; adversarial training (GAN-style discriminator) drives disparate impact to 80% after ~150 epochs at ~10% accuracy cost; debiasing word vectors and adding fairness metrics into training round out the toolbox.
