Do something with AI? An artificial intelligence may be freer to "notice things" in a sci-fi context than a human. You could claim the creators tried to program notions of equality into it that it kept rejecting, and after analyzing the data the creators determined the AI was ultimately correct.
Was it Amazon or some other gigantic company that told its AI employee selector to pick the best candidates for each job and the thing picked white males across the board? Then they reprogrammed it to pick the most skilled, educated, and qualified candidates with no input or regard for race, and again it picked 100% white candidates.
It's all a good metaphor for how they're handling hiring everywhere. Not even the soulless corporate machines would pick an inferior hire based solely on skin color, but due to programming requirements, here we are.

The sci-fi part is the engineers don't reprogram the AI to force it to be color-blind
