I agree with you that everyone has some sort of implicit bias.

For example, on chat here if the avatar and name are neutral, I assume the person is male (even though most people on here are female). I also tend to assume everyone is from the US and has English as a native languages.

As far as getting rid of implicit bias, I don't know what can be done.
