Which strategy is most effective for reducing bias in AI-generated code?

Provide diverse examples and explicitly state inclusivity requirements in prompts.

Avoid mentioning bias in prompts to prevent the AI from overcorrecting.

Use only AI tools that are open source.

Use the same prompt repeatedly until the output is consistent.

A team needs an AI tool to generate Bash scripts for system administration tasks. Which factor is most important when selecting the tool?

The tool's ability to run on a mobile device.

The tool's familiarity with Linux command-line utilities and shell scripting.

The tool's ability to generate code in multiple programming languages.

The tool's user interface design.

A developer is using an AI assistant to generate a script for a critical production system. The AI generates a script that is efficient but uses a deprecated system call. The developer knows the deprecated call will be removed in the next OS update. What is the MOST responsible action?

Deploy the script as-is because it works now and the OS update is not scheduled.

Refactor the script to use the recommended replacement for the deprecated system call.

Ask the AI to generate a new script without mentioning the deprecated call.

Add a comment to the script noting the deprecated call and the need to update it later.

A team is using an AI to generate a script that will filter job applications. They are concerned about bias against applicants from certain universities. The AI's initial output uses education level as a primary filter. What is the BEST way to mitigate bias?

Modify the prompt to explicitly state that education should not be used as a primary filter and to focus on skills and experience.

Use a different AI tool that is known for being unbiased.

Remove the education field from the input data before processing.

Manually review all applications that are filtered out by the AI.

A company needs to generate a large number of configuration files for different server roles. They have a team of experienced admins who can review code, but they want to minimize the time spent on manual review. They are considering two AI tools: Tool A is highly accurate but expensive, and Tool B is less accurate but free. What is the BEST approach?

Use Tool B to save money and accept the increased manual review time.

Use Tool A to minimize the time spent on manual review, despite the higher cost.

Use Tool B for simple configurations and Tool A for complex ones.

Use Tool A for all configurations to ensure the highest quality.
