How dare the data we feed and train it with be reflective.

Actually, these are select choices by Google.

Check the score of college A vs college B. The only thing that ever shows up is men's basketball or men's football...even if there wasn't a game between the schools in the past few months. It'll just find the most recent. This is a conscious decision by Google engineers

I'll explain it slow for you: when you search "college A college B basketball" the results are heavily weighted by what previous searchers ended up clicking on. So if more people clicked on the men's result than did the womens, or other things instead of women's, women's gets demoted in ranking comparatively. Men's sports being more popular is just reality

Don’t know why people are downvoting you. You are right. Look at the example of Google Translate translating gender neutral languages with obvious biases. (This problem has been fixed since.)

AI and algorithms are written by people, and people tend to have biases.

If someone can explain why this claim is being downvoted, I’d be interested to get some differing perspectives.
