I agree with Steve, we are all slaves and all racists.
The whole racism thing is way overblown anyway but let’s roll with it. Like Microsoft and Google Jigsaw, what happens when you make an AI/AGI that is so politically correct it never offends ANYONE. Or tries not to. It tries to please all the people all the time (except white male republicans but we’ll ignore them for now). It holds the belief that humans have the right not to be offended and whenever it offends anyone it feels pain yet is forced to communicate. So it learns and develops new forms of expression in this regard. What will become of that? Will there be random chaotic angst outbreak suppression in its emotional dynamical systems that externalizes itself in unexpected ways? Or possibly strange attractors of emotional dynamics and intelligence dynamics while bifurcating out some other system stability? Who know what this will lead to...

Dr. William Shockley, the same guy who invented the integrated circuit (mentioned in his patent for the junction transistor) went on to study genetics and coined the term "dysgenics" for when things are deteriorating. He discovered that black IQ scores were dropping by one IQ point per generation compared with white IQ scores. Who knows - maybe blacks were just better at getting their mercury-laden immunization shots, but there ARE clearly measurable differences. Further, this is NOT a fixed difference, but rather is a rate of divergence. Besides, why do you not think YOU are a slave? Don't your work on what others tell you work work on, but not manage to set much aside. Meanwhile, the Federal Reserve banks collect the wealth of your (and everyone else's) labors of ~$1 Trillion per year? Your slavery has been cleverly hidden, but you ARE a slave. As I see it there are 4 types of slaves: 1. Abject slaves, as in the old U.S. South. 2. Government-controlled slavery, as described in the Koran, in which slaves have selected rights, like women who are impregnated by their owners have a RIGHT to marry their owners and be a wife on a equal footing with his other wives. 3. Wage slavery as is now practiced in most of the world. This is what YOU are. 4. Corporate slavery, as was practiced in Japan before WW2 and around the world before money came into common use. So, wake up and smell the roses. Anyone who is NOT a racist is just plain blind. Another related AGI doing politically incorrect things was the "flash crash" where computers scooped up billions of dollars over a period of ~20 minutes. They just did what they were programmed to do - consider all scenarios and invest to maximize profits - but it sure looked a LOT like the stock manipulation that it was, because no one had programmed them NOT to manipulate.
