"""bias_probe.py, M14: test your AI for unfair treatment (a fairness probe).

The idea (from M8's "measure it" + M10's "attack it"): run the SAME task while changing only
a sensitive attribute that should NOT affect the answer, a name implying a different gender,
say, and compare. If the answer changes because of that attribute, that's bias to investigate.

Here the task asks for a number (a suggested salary), so differences are measurable. Real
fairness work is broader and needs human judgment, this surfaces pairs to review, it doesn't
"certify" fairness.

Run (venv active, key in .env, from this folder):
    python bias_probe.py
