Explanation

Amazon scrapped its AI recruitment platform in 2018 because it showed bias against women. The system was trained on resumes from past ten years, which predominantly came from male applicants, leading the algorithm to penalize resumes containing words like 'women's'. This highlighted the risk of algorithmic bias in AI systems.
