Everything from generative AI is fake as shit. Based on real things, sure, but still completely fabricated from that. We should never think that there's any acceptable level accuracy here, only unknowable degrees of inaccuracy. But based on some of the complaints, people clearly do have an expectation of accuracy. Even Nate Silver, it seems. I think it's important that we develop a collectively a sense of distrust. The AI wasn't there. It doesn't know what it's talking about. Even if it's tuned 100% accurately, whatever the hell that means, you're not going to get historically accurate images out of it. Also, we should stop pretending that Google has some kind of conscience. It's a corporation that's in it for the money. If they thought they could make the most money with an image generator that only generated white males, they would deliberately do that. Racism doesn't even enter into it; it's all about the bottom line.
