- [4855607-003](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/4855607-003) [failure/evidenced] *(failure mode)* -- Deep learning models inadvertently learn and amplify whatever biases exist in their training data, so the composition of the training corpus, not the architecture, is the source of unfair or discriminatory outcomes.

- [5541658-031](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/5541658-031) [failure/argued] *(failure mode)* -- Experimental studies suggest risks such as bias amplification from judicial AI, but there is little empirical data on how those risks actually manifest in operational courtrooms, which leaves practical integration guidelines undeveloped.
  > While experimental studies suggest risks like bias amplification, there is little empirical data on how these risks manifest in operational judicial settings.
