   A government agency is developing an AI system to screen job applicants. The system is trained on historical hiring data, which shows that the agency has historically hired more men than women for certain roles. The agency is concerned about the ethical implications of using this data. What is the most appropriate action?

   • ADiscard the historical data and use a completely new dataset that has no gender bias.
   • BRemove the 'gender' field from the dataset and train the model on the remaining features.
   • CUse the historical data as-is, as it reflects the agency's past hiring practices, and the AI will simply learn from them.
   • DTrain the model on the historical data but then test it for disparate impact on gender and adjust the model to ensure fair outcomes.
