        This is so wrong for so many reasons. Why would anyone want to build that? I don't even care about how it works, just why the fuck do it?

        It was probably a mistake to write "no Asians" into the algorithm.

        Of COURSE the tech is insane and unethical—the aim was to expose its harmful potential to public. Alas, scientific illiteracy and clickbait.

        Probably unethical and by all means 81% is not scientifically significant. In US it would misinterpret orientation of 61 million people.
