Black people have been Jim-Crowed out of tech for years by a combination of deliberate segregation and faux-meritocracy that subsitutes male-bodied and white skin privilege for actual skills and intellect.

I have no doubt that this computer did exactly what it was programmed to do when it dredged up this racist, hurtful, and antiquated stereotype, and I have already asked the SPLC to investigate Google as a hate group.
