gollark: FIXED. CEASE COMPLAINT. FIXED.
gollark: Thus, unconscious bias fixed?
gollark: See, people complain about unconscious bias a lot. So I thought "well, ignoring all the issues about consciousness in software or whatever, surely it would be better if it didn't have this". And the "conscious" well-documented bias outweighs any possible *un*conscious bias loads!
gollark: Well, if I was being really clever, I would CLAIM to remove the autobias code, document it as unbiased, and make it appear unbiased, *but* have a mode where it enables bias *only* when asking for one randomly picked item.
gollark: What about it?
