Google has temporarily disabled its image generator

Google has been forced to disable the image generator function in its Gemini neural network. As it became known, this was due to numerous user complaints about incorrect images, most likely in pursuit of racial diversity, the artificial intelligence began to produce drawings with dark-skinned people and Asians in the image of Hitler’s Nazis and Vikings. «We are already working to resolve recent problems with Gemini’s image generation feature. While we’re doing that, we’re going to pause the generation of images of people and will re-release an improved version» —Google officials noted.

And we’re going to pause the generation of images of people and re-release an improved version in the near future.

According to Google’s service developers, the Gemini service has a problem with accuracy and bias. Speaking of which, a former Google employee noted that “it was difficult to get Google Gemini to recognize that white people exist.” It was noted that racial and gender diversity has been attempted many times, but has not been historically accurate. Gemini has been known to produce images of US Founding Fathers and Nazi-era German soldiers, but the people in the images themselves were, for example, dark-skinned or with the appearance of Native North Americans.
