Should googles tech workforce resemble that of the broader US? i.e. Would having a workforce that resembles the US signify an elimination of bias in the hiring process.
If you believe that Google’s workforce hiring should be free from bias, than can’t you extend the same argument to search results?
For those in favor of bias in search results, may I ask you to justify why?
That's not an analogy, but making an bias argument (spreading FUD) without evidence.
An analogy is the train station newspaper example. What you're doing is arguing that all of the Google employees are inserting their own personal bias into search results, without evidence.
I want to spur a discussion on whether bias in search results is ok or not. I’m trying to provide a counter example to argue the point that I believe that google search results should be free from bias by arguing using a corollary that hiring should be free from bias. I do not intend to spread FUD.
Can you argue in favor of bias in Googles search results? In an ideal world what should it be?
The search results are already biased, and they should be. That's the basis of Google Search, that it provides a biased, more useful result based on how many pages link to it.
