The programmer can influence an algorithm.

Depending on the programmer, they could have bias on the algorithm due to algothrims being programed by people. For example racism, discrimination, etc. To ensure that an algorithm is unbaised, make sure the algorithm doesn't have any precedence based on the programmer.
