Were you asking Gemma about this, or Gemini? What were your prompts?
- robswc 3y agoGemini. I first asked it to tell me about the Heian period (which it got correct) but then it generated images and seemed to craft the rest of the chat to fit that narrative. I mean, just asking it for a "samurai" from the period will give you this: https://g.co/gemini/share/ba324bd98d9b https://g.co/gemini/share/ba324bd98d9b >A non-binary Indigenous American samurai It seems to recognize it's mistakes if you confront it though. The more I mess with it the more I get "I'm afraid I can't do that, Dave" responses. But yea. Seems like if it makes an image, it goes off the rails.
- aetherson 3y agoGot it. I asked it a series of text questions about the period and it didn't put in anything obviously laughable (including when I drilled down into specific questions about the population, gender roles, and ethnicity). Maybe it's the image creation that throws it into lala land.
- robswc 3y agoI think so too. I could be wrong but I believe once it generates an image it tries to work with it. Crazy how it seems the "text" model knows how wildly wrong it is but the image model just does its thing. I asked it why it generated a native American and it ironically said "I can't generate an image of a native american samurai because that would be offensive"
- aetherson 3y agoI suspect that in the case of the image model, they directly modify your prompt and in the case of the text model they don't.
- laurentlb 3y agoIt's funny how they introduced a clear US-centric bias while trying to push for more diversity.
