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?
gollark: Other bots might be biased and NOT tell you.
gollark: It's well-documented bias, APIOFORM.
