A philosophical inquiry on the effect of reasoning in A.I models for bias and fairness

Abstract

Advances in Artificial Intelligence (AI) have driven the evolution of reasoning in modern AI models, particularly with the development of Large Language Models (LLMs) and their "Think and Answer" paradigm. This paper explores the influence of human reinforcement on AI reasoning and its potential to enhance decision-making through dynamic human interaction. It analyzes the roots of bias and fairness in AI, arguing that these issues often stem from human data and reflect inherent human biases. The paper is structured as follows: first, it frames reasoning as a mechanism for ethical reflection, grounded in dynamic learning and feedback loops; second, it discusses how scaling laws suggest that reinforcement learning (RL) can mitigate biases and promote fairness; third, it examines how RL allows models to view algorithmic bias and fairness as approximation problems. Through an experimental study, the paper demonstrates how AI models, empowered by RL, have successfully identified biases across various domains, including gender and socio-economic contexts, highlighting how reasoning improves algorithmic fairness. Ultimately, this work emphasizes the role of RL in mitigating algorithmic bias and enhancing fairness in AI systems.
