It is hard not to see “fragile white people” as a bias. Look at these comments around you. The more typical HN lens of trying to understand the technical causes is overcome by cultural posturing and positioning. If I had to guess, either the training set was incorrectly tagged like with a simpler model creating mislabeled meta data, or a deliberate test was forked to production. Sometimes you run tests with extreme variables to validate XYZ and then learnings are used without sending to prod. But what do I know as a PM in big tech who works on public facing products where no one ever has DEI concerns. No DEI concerns because not everything is a culture war like the media or internet folks will have you believe. Edit: not at Google

This is one of the more sensible comments in this thread. Instead of looking at the technical tweaks that need to take place, let's just fall into the trap of the culture warrior and pretend to be offended.
