Improving the training set is the way to go. Like others have said, maybe we should attempt to improve contrast of darker faces before training (which won't be easy as well).
That said, a non-diverse facial dataset in a diverse society like the US is simply useless. It doesn't help saying the AI is suffering from a human bias, and dropping these projects entirely, unless they are being used for a malign purpose like what China does.
