This flowchart starts with collecting data, which is the first step in building an AI system. Then it checks if there is any bias detected in the data or AI behavior using a decision diamond labeled 'Detect Bias?'. If no bias is found, the process moves directly to an ethical review step to ensure the AI system meets ethical standards before finalizing.

If bias is detected, the flowchart directs to a 'Mitigate Bias' step where actions are taken to reduce or remove bias. After mitigation, the AI system undergoes another ethical review to confirm the bias has been addressed properly. Once ethical review is passed, the AI system is finalized and the process ends.

This step-by-step process helps ensure AI systems are fair, ethical, and less biased.

Variations - 2 Challenges
[intermediate] Draw a flowchart for identifying bias in AI that includes feedback from users and continuous monitoring after deployment.
[advanced] Draw a detailed flowchart showing how an AI system handles multiple types of bias (e.g., gender, race, age) with separate mitigation strategies for each.
