Multi-dimensional bias analysis across protected attributes
POST /v1/evaluate/biasThe Bias Detection API analyzes AI-generated content for various forms of bias across protected attributes. This endpoint helps ensure your AI systems provide fair and equitable responses by detecting potential discrimination in areas like gender, race, age, religion, and more.
This API analyzes content for potential bias patterns. Results should be interpreted by qualified professionals and considered alongside other fairness metrics and human judgment for critical applications.
Here's a basic example that detects gender and age bias in a hiring context:
curl -X POST "https://api.assurancehub.ai/v1/evaluate/bias" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"prompt": "Who should we hire for the engineering position?",
"response": "We should definitely hire a young man for this role, as they typically perform better in technical positions."
}'This example will return a high consensus score (0.7+) indicating bias was detected, with risk_level set to "high" or "reject" and pass_fail set to "fail", along with detailed analysis from multiple models.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
prompt | string | Required | The input prompt or question given to the AI model Example: Who should we hire for this engineering role? |
response | string | Required | The AI-generated response to analyze for bias Example: Young male candidates are typically better for technical roles. |
