There is being ‘woke’ and then there is being factually inaccurate. Google’s Gemini was the latter with the images it generated.
We really need better words to describe what is going on. ‘Woke’ and leftist employees aren’t it, it’s employees that have done a poor job in ensuring the model doesn’t discriminate. I’d expect far better from Google.
- belorn 3y agoThere is a common phenomenon that when viewing people belonging to other social groups, people get described using generalized labels. When viewing people belong to ones own social group, they get described as non-generalized individuals. Is it systemic racism, or individual poor performing police employees who do a bad job? Are there systemic sexism, or individuals in managements that act unprofessional? Usually it is both. In the wrong culture individual people are allowed to do a bad job, and in many case rewarded for the wrong metrics which only further reinforce the wrong culture.
- raxxorraxor 3y agoI disagree. To prove systemic issues within a culture is quite difficult. And people are justifiably defensive because they have become suspects. Ironic, considering the fight against racism and sexism is a fight against prejudice. So the cure is actually worsening the problem. But no, people in power in corporations don't need the consent of anyone working under them. There is also a wrong culture where people get on witch hunts towards allegedly blasphemous behavior.
