> Google originally did this because they didn’t want pictures of people doing universal activities (e.g. walking a dog) to always be white, reflecting whatever bias existed in their training set. If the results were actually proportional to the training set I think that would be fine (assuming the training set had some reasonable amount of diversity, which I bet it does; one could always do biased resampling too). I'd be concern about mode collapse, where it would just show the most common class (eg white American women) and nothing else. But I thought we had solved that issue.
