Social Google Gemini refuses to show pictures of white people.

It makes me wonder IF the initial part was there in the first place.
People obsessed with American identity politics in particular aren't exactly shy about calling everyone they disagree with politically pedophiles.
To the extent that we've had to explicitly ban it here.
well if it wasn't, you think a company would not come out explicitly denying that it was?

Did they acknowledge it at all? With the ridiculous racial image results they publicly recognised it as a failure, and especially in regards to results regarding historical figures, groups or events.

would you acknowledge it?
"yeah sure we wrote some disgusting pro-pedo shit BUT WE"RE FIXING IT!!!"

they're in crisis mode.
but i think this thing killed them. Who would take a clearly ideologically-slanted AI seriously anymore?

The same people who take ideologically slanted media seriously. As sad as it is, there are swaths of retards out there who think erasing white people and sympathizing with "MAPs" is a positive development for society.

They've been getting plenty of poor results all along. The image example just quickly and graphically demonstrated what a blunt tool prompt engineering is, but it's still been an industry wide practice for the last few years.
LLMs won't just repeat bias in the data and the prompts, they'll refine it and magnify it before spitting it out in it's crudest form.
Commercial viability is an easy excuse for ham fisted efforts to reduce bias, regardless of whether it's with heavily filtered training data or prompt engineering.
There's no excuse for pedophile apologetics though, that's just cause for immediate termination, which is why I can't imagine it getting implemented. It's not like Google doesn't implement modern practices of pair programming and quality control through code reviews before going live.

It isn’t self thinking, it’s programmed. It was programmed to say that. We have been warning you MAPS is the next letter in the alphabet mafia, Google just showed their hand and proved we were right

Isn't it?
here's gemini at the same time arguing that we can't tell if Washington was white and also that race isn't important.

"race is a social construct not a biological reality."
really? who speaks like that in the current world? normal people?
how much more ideologically locked does it have to be to recognize it's a trapped system that is completely useless.

Currently google is an absolute joke.

What? Google tracks, identifies and turns over more people for child porn through gmail and their other platforms than any other company I'm aware of. Been doing it for decades.
Apple only just started scanning for it last year.

That's straight from Anthropology 101. It's not about people identifying as other races, it's about racial identification being more about social context and appearance, a poor proxy for genetic information.
 
I was, 100% gonna give this shit some time to cook. I mean, not even google woud let this shit slide.

My local SPORTS RADIO station was blasting it as of yesterday morning. Like, they were laying into this shit and pummeling it non stop for hours. They're all dumb as bricks, and and even they were going at it, and dunking on it.

At leat google is siding with the left finally, and proving that AI art is awful.

yeah right, cause this is what it was about when they asked if Washington was white. not properly identifying a historical person. kinda of like the police does when they take you in. funny how they don't write "we don't know the race of the person because race is a social construct and we cannot use such irrelevant characteristics such as APPEARANCE to identify this person". come on now.

Well the response can be parsed down pretty simply.
1.) Washington identified as and was identified by others as white.
2.) He may not have had entirely white or European ancestry.
3.) Those two answers aren't mutually exclusive.

It gave all three responses and parsed it in PC language. Probably as much because it couldn't judge the intent of the prompt as the fact that it's ultimately intended for commercial use.
There's nothing there that's remotely close to the historical failures we saw with the image generation. Assuming the part about possible non-euro ancestry is accurate, because I can't say George Washington is a topic I've ever spent much time on.


Edit: Although when I asked Gemini, it pretty categorically said his ancestry was entirely European.

did george washington have non-european ancestry?​

There is no evidence to suggest that George Washington had any non-European ancestry.
Here's what we know:
  • Genealogy: Extensive research on George Washington's family tree has traced his lineage back to the 12th century in North East England (with an 11th-century progenitor in Scotland).
  • Historical context: During the time period when Washington's ancestors arrived in the New World, the vast majority of colonists in what would become the United States were of British or Western European descent.
  • President's own words: Interestingly, George Washington himself expressed little interest in his genealogy, stating in a letter that he had "paid very little attention" to the subject.
While there have been occasional speculations about potential non-European ancestry, none of these have been substantiated by concrete evidence. Based on the available historical and genealogical information, it is safe to say that George Washington's ancestry was predominantly European.

Pfft. Sorry, I was taking you seriously.
I didn't realise you were precisely the sort of American obsessed with identity politics and calling everyone pedos that I'd just mentioned.
That being the case, weren't you saying Google are "Liberals" with a "Liberal agenda" though?

What you're describing is a completely useless piece of software if it cannot understand the spirit of the question, especially such a simple one.
