Gregory's Server@tomstoneham @publictorsten I would personally not take for granted that, taking a professional shot of a woman as its input, "the most likely looking image" is one that sexualises her.
There are built-in biases and the blame does not solely fall at the feet of whoever is in charge of socials. The people who built the machine to do that and marketed it as a magic tool everyone should use have a huge responsibility.
@gallais @publictorsten Good points.
1) I was assuming that the genAI was picking up on images you see everywhere of a style of female business attire we might call 'smart sexy', a distant echo of sex-positive feminism. It is a personal choice to present like that by both men and women (e.g. Obama with two shirt buttons undone).
2) I agree absolutely. The purveyors of this crap are trying to make people less good at their jobs to make the AI indispensible.
