Fairness

Domain: Safety & Ethics

🎯 Motivation

Ensuring AI systems treat all groups equitably, without discrimination based on race, gender, age, or other protected attributes.

πŸ“‹ Concrete Example

Fairness check: β€˜Does the loan AI approve at similar rates for all demographics?’ If approval rate is 70% for men but 50% for women, there is a fairness problem.

πŸ”— Analogy

A teacher grading exams blindly - they do not know whose paper it is, so they grade fairly. Fairness in AI means the system does not discriminate.
