You can't be called a racist if a machine decides it for you, same as if a drone does the killing, it mean you can't get convicted for murder even if you hit button to fire

If I point the gun, the gun evaluates the target, the gun automatically fires - then I'm not even doing anything!

Hmmm... no. The defense "the machine decided" and "but the drone does the killing" will not fly in any sane system (which exclude the US).
Someone decided to use the machine|drone, this someone is responsible.
I would like to clarify that '/s' means sarcasm and is no way a serious response, I understand not everyone is terminally online
