Systemic Bias: According to the first edition of the EU-U.S. terminology and taxonomy for artificial intelligence, the term “Systemic Bias” means:
Systemic bias is a social consistent structure of harmful bias that is systemically reinforced in institutions, cultural perception, and socio-technical infrastructures. AI systems can reinforce systemic biases by reproducing the discriminatory effects of systemic biases when deployed in socially important institutions, cultural production, or in societal infrastructures.
