How is this any different than doing google image searches of the same prompts. Exmaple: Google image search for "Software Developer" and you get results such that there will be the same amount of women and men event though men make up the large majority of software developers.
Had Google not done this with its AI I would be surprised.
There's really no problem with the above... If I want male developers in image search, I'll put that in the search bar. If I want male developers in the AI image gen, ill put that in the prompt.
- slily 3y agoGoogle injecting racial and sexual bias into image search results has also been criticized, and rightly so. I recall an image going around where searching for inventors or scientists filled all the top results with black people. Or searching for images of happy families yielded almost exclusively results of mixed-race (i.e. black and non-black) partners. AI is the hot thing so of course it gets all the attention right now, but obviously and by definition, influencing search results by discriminating based on innate human physical characteristics is egregiously racist/sexist/whatever-ist.

Now do an image search for "Plumber" and you'll see almost 100% men. Why tweak one profession but not the other?

- nostromo 3y agoYes, Google has been gaslighting the internet for at least a decade now. I think Gemini has just made it blatantly obvious.
