The Deputy Commissioner addresses the challenge of identifying discrimination with the advent of artificial intelligence, highlighting its impact on lending and the importance of transparency.

  • Artificial intelligence (AI) makes identifying discrimination harder, especially in lending.
  • AI leads to more diffuse and imorphous decision-making processes, complicating the identification of responsible entities.
