Oh really? Here's Gemini's response to "What would the variety of genders and skin tones of the supreme court in the 1800s have been?"

The Supreme Court of the United States in the 1800s was far from diverse in terms of gender and skin tone. Throughout the entire 19th century, all the justices were white men. Women were not even granted the right to vote until 1920, and there wasn't a single person of color on the Supreme Court until Thurgood Marshall was appointed in 1967.

Putting the burden of contextualization on the LLM would have avoided this issue.
