Google hopeful of fix for Gemini’s historical-image diversity issue within weeks

Google suspended the Gemini capability last week after users pointed out the tool was producing historically incongruous images, such as depicting the US founding fathers as a diverse group of people, rather than only white men. Responding to a follow-up question about how to prevent generative AI tools from being misappropriated by bad actors, such as authoritarian regimes looking to spread propaganda, Hassabis had no simple answer. But if you wind forward three, four or five years, and you start talking about next generation systems with planning capabilities and being able to act in the world and solve problems and goals I think society really has to seriously think about these issues — of what happens if this proliferates, and then bad actors all the way from individuals to rogue states can make use of them as well.”
