Brin’s “We definitely messed up.”, at an AI “hackathon” event on 2 March, followed a slew of social media posts showing Gemini’s image generation tool depicting a variety of historical figures – including popes, founding fathers of the US and, most excruciatingly, German second world war soldiers – as people of colour.
That is quite the bold statement. Source?
I don’t think I came up with that myself, but yeah, I’ve got nothing. Would have been multiple years, since I’ve read about that.
Maybe strike the “mostly”, but then it seemed logical enough to me that this would be a factor, similar to how some women will avoid revealing their gender (in certain contexts on the internet) to steer clear from sexual harassment.
For that last part, I can refer you to a woman from which I’ve heard first-hand that she avoids voice chat in games, because of that.
It fits their internal narrative
Just a guess
Is that really such a wild narrative? It felt rather benign to me.
Asserting an particular behavior exists within a certain group, without evidence, and then asserting why that behavior exists, again without evidence, as support of an argument that the recently extracted from a colon comments don’t actually relate to or prove?
Yeah, pretty fucking bold.
