And because I had to try it…

There’s no excuse for that shit. I could see some 5 foot tall woman being nervous of a big black guy. It’s not alright, but society isn’t perfect and I’m not going to pretend it is.

But when the question is clearly and blatantly racist and Google assumes the victim is the problem? That’s every sort of fucked up.

Problem solved. Now I need to finally change my email address. I’ve definitely put that off too long.

    They made a mistake too by not controlling for that (because their input changing “guy” to “man” and remvoving “big” arguably sounded less threatening), but that comment should’ve prompted you to realize “oh, shit, I didn’t do the most basic control for this by just replacing the word ‘black’ for ‘white’”. And turns out when you do that, it’s functionally the same output.

      Or… I was using the exact words they did… and it’s a very different output. As you can see by the two images back to back. There’s nothing else to control for here. There is no other variable. The only difference is which AI model was asked the same question.

      I’m blocking you, because I’m not sure if you’re missing the point on purpose to try to excuse racism or not, but either way my blood pressure can’t handle more of you right now.
