But from now on, I plan to add "racist" to the name of all their products, in my private and public messaging, so their next generation of AI can learn how awful it is.
I'll stop as soon as their AI stops defaming me.

"Permanently tarnished their brand"
What's going to be a hoot is when Google says Gemini is fixed, and people start testing it, and it's still showing everyone or most people as being black.

Wow.
For a company whose roots are in providing information this is a pretty big deal. If you can't trust the information they supply as being accurate (i.e.: unbiased in any way), then what good is it?
We've known for years Google has been biasing their search results to favor concerns that pay them for ranking, but this brings information bias to a whole new level. They're now just plain making shit up.
Hmmm... not unlike the Dominant "News" Media.

Celebrate 'Leap Day' by beginning the process of de-googlefying your life. Leave racist google behind starting today!
The only good google is a dead google.

From Matt Taibbi:
quote:
If their executives signed off on releasing this train wreck to the public, imagine what they’re not showing us.
“Google just hit pause on its Gemini image generator, which was creating historically inaccurate pictures. The slip-up was so bad it sent the company’s stock tumbling, and had CEO Sundar Pichai address the troops, calling the situation ‘completely unacceptable’.”
The debacle has strengthened the narrative that Google is suddenly behind in the AI race, and now there’s a growing chorus of voices calling for CEO Sundar Pichai to be replaced.”
Bernstein internet analyst Mark Shmulik:
“‘The most recent saga only further raises increasingly louder questions around whether this is the right management team to guide Google into this next era’.
