From the Inside Flap

"Trust is the glue that binds a company and its consumers together in the digital age. Any form of embedded bias could disrupt that trust. And it is important to emphasize that a public crisis associated with any level of prejudice that has been encoded in a company's AI-powered ecosystem could lead to a revolt from their customers. Ultimately, the cost of fixing that problem could be as significant as a total disruption in a volatile business landscape." --Journel Joseph
