Summary: The promise of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is high, very high. But can we really trust AI systems today to be reliable, accurate, and free from bias? We take a look at three areas were bias is creeping into AI and automated systems. Plus our Fast Five: Tesla pulls its Level 4 Autonomous driving option from its site, while thieves hack a Tesla key fob; Russia and China really hack the POTUS iPhone; Italy targets Apple and Samsung for throttling performance on older phones; and YouTube lets you watch while you surf. Our Tech Bites winner this week? Google, and it's latest coverup. For our Crystal Ball we ask the question "What can we really expect from 5G within the coming year?" The answer might surprise you.
