Forgive my ignorance since I don't have a CS degree, but don't all algorithms used for selecting have a human behind the logic. So wouldn't an algorithm always have some bias based on the weights given by a human. Kind of like OKCupid saying you are a 75% match with someone. You may not be compatible with that person, but whoever designed the algorithm declared it to be true with their design.

So wouldn't any algorithm always have some biased in it?

Sorry if this comes off as a stupid question or is unclear.
