I think your comment is a bit dismissive. Facebook is not the first to encounter this, it happened 6/7 years ago and they should have known better. Secondly, if the Data Scientist working on this were all black, this would not have happened, just like the automatic soap dispensers in bathrooms.

Why would that be true? I don't understand the argument that black people would have avoided this.

From what I can tell the only fix here is a hardcoded workaround outside the net, or a substantially more powerful architecture.
