As has become apparent during this conflict, a lot of humans let simple-minded bias and stereotypes guide their views. I wouldn’t expect “AI” to do any better.

AI is programmed by humans to look at a bunch of input stating “Look for these basic things we feel are important (which also means some things were ignored) and make decisions relative to that”. It is then fed a bunch of input that is also… written by humans in their own point of view given what they had at the time.

So yeah, this is bound to happen and it’s not like there haven’t been years worth of stories of this happening after years of stories predicting this would happen.
