No matter what Google does, people are going to come up with gotcha scenarios to complain about. People need to accept the fact that if you don't specify what race you want, then the output might not contain the race you want. This seems like such a silly thing to be mad about.
American using Gemini: "Please produce images of the KKK, historically accurate Santa's Workshop Elves, and the board room of a 1950s auto company"
Also Americans: "AH!! AH!!!!! Minorities and Women!!!!!!! AAAAAHHH!!!!"
I mean, idk, man. Why do you need AI to generate an image of George Washington when you have thousands of images of him already at your disposal?
Because sometimes you want an image of George Washington, riding a dinosaur, while eating a cheeseburger, in Paris.
Which you actually can’t do on Bing anyway, since it ‘content warning’ stops you from generating anything with George Washington…
Ask it for a Founding Father though, it’ll even hand him a gat!
The random lettuce between every layer is weirdly off-putting to me. It seems like it's been growing on the burger for quite some time :D
Doesn’t look too bad to me. I love a fair bit of crispy lettuce on a burger. Doing it like that at least spreads it out a bit, rather than having a big chunk of lettuce.
Still, it that was my burger… I’d add another patty and extra cheese.
