How AI Models Learn Bias from Medical Triage Algorithms
In this episode of AI Ethics with Fexingo, Lucas and Luna explore how artificial intelligence is being used in hospital emergency departments to triage patients — and how those models can inherit racial and socioeconomic biases from historical data. They focus on a specific case: a 2025 study of an AI triage system deployed in three Chicago hospitals, which was found to systematically under-prioritize Black patients for critical care.
