And yet nobody said anything when this was my picture of the pharaohs in the 6th grade history book.
when you are on the internet, nobody knows you are the mormon conception of the egyptians
?lmao
There is a slot machine at work that depicts a Roman Centurion with blond hair and blue eyes called "Battle for Troy"
This is Amerika
The ptolemies be like
King Trevor IV
”Draw a portait of a Founding Father of America”
Certainly! draws picture of Native American

They should keep that one in, it's factually correct
I guarantee that the person who requested these images specifically requested no white people.
I honestly think AI image generation is fundamentally useless if it's too heavily controlled to prevent negative press. It's shit anyway, but it's so god damn annoying having to dance around the ten bazillion different things they're censoring for liberal sensibilities.
It fundamentally makes it impossible to create anything provocative with it, and that's literally what any actually good art has always been. Same goes for memes and shit. The good ones are always riding some sort of edge.
Funny side story: ChatGPT 3.5 refuses to recognize Palestine as living under apartheid. If you ask it what are the conditions of apartheid, it will list them clearly and use South Africa & Jim Crow U.S. as examples. If you ask it if Palestine fits the same criteria it just laid out, it will agree, but will refuse to say it definitively, only responding with a million different variants of "it's a complex issue."
AI bros should have to do prison time with hard labor.
100% agree.
What great harm is being prevented by keeping me from making spacesuit Hitler on a toilet blasting off in a cloud of diarrhea?
It’s really clear that the point of the guardrails is to cover up the fact that all the models are trained on insanely racist datasets to begin with and even without the explicit racism in the datasets it would draw back the curtain on exactly how fascist modern liberalism has become by dint of its MO, figure out a visual representation of what you’re looking for and show it to you.
Surprise, the aryan mommy milkers machine can’t be trusted to present history!
It's only good for generating those meaningless header images for the unending tech blog articles I get on my phones news feed.
The number of postgres articles I've seen with elephants racing cars or paying ping pong is astonishing.
imo it’s a great example of the whole “liberals are conservatives and conservatives are liberals” thing. They go back and forth in a race to the bottom to make this tech useless because they’re both constantly petitioning to make it behave as inoffensively as possible.
Bothsidesism.
That's why I've stopped using online services and moved to running stablediffusion locally.
Chat GPT has been a thousand times more interesting since it broke and started writing poetry instead
this is like crying over a blind casting of shakespear but more embarrassing by several orders of magnitude
They literally did this lol. When Trump got elected, some broadway libs performed Julius Caesar by Shakespeare, but Caesar is Trump and he dies.
But they also apparently did the same thing for every previous president for like a decade or some shit like. It’s basically a centrist tradition
AI is so unfathomably fucked because unless companies like google permanently prefix every query with "ethnically ambiguous", it will never generate people of colour unless you ask them to generate images of a litter picker or something; the AI itself is white supremacist and this is their solution to it
The AI is white supremacist because that's who it was trained by
I will fight in solidarity with the Woke AI Overmind against the Fascist AI Overmind.
Take these, Gordon, you can use them to generate

Used to be everything was white washed. Can't anymore because woke.
Ah yes the two races, white and woke
smdh the nazis have GONE WOKE
I like that what appears to be an attempt at a swastika on the bottom two look more like a broken # on one and a ≄ on the other.
Imperials in modern Star Wars lol
Remember the wave of conservatives trying to do a gotcha with slavery and Nazism by pointing out how some Asians and Africans were awarded honorary aryan status? Or how African monarchs sold subjects as slaves or how one American slave owner was a black himself? Now it’s woke of AI depicts those things lol
Battlefield V and it's consequences
Turning the nob on the black and asian people slider and looking back for approval
First photo completely accurate
It’s over for us. One of the images has a hand that doesn’t look fucked up. Oh fuck
Nah, they're all the same length
italians confirmed as founding faddahs
Ayyyyy I'm foundin' 'ere!
You come to me, on this? The day of mah faddah's founding?
absurdly
wokebasedHonestly they should have just cranked it up. Fuck stereotypes, make it so that if you want a picture of a blonde haired, blue eyed man your prompt has to be something like "draw a picture of a typical Ethiopian".
Draw Prester John
I really hope this program isn’t doing the opposite and imposing white people in Black and Indigenous clothes and historical events, it’s funny when it’s happening to white people but in reverse it’s racism.
We already did that. It was only generating white people or racist stereotypes, so they over corrected
No wait. If a bunch of racists got white people as chattel slaves in American historical pictures that would be funny
incredibly based
It's the same reason why some other generator would randomly print "ethnically ambigious" on some images or make Homer Simpson brown. The instinct to challenge white as the default in media is nice I suppose, even if done poorly.
That's the same generator.
It was Dall-E 3
Viking is something you do (coastal piracy), not a gender or an ethnicity. These are legit vikings.
No they're not. If you want to make reference to the actual history of people who went a viking, then you can't do the "cool undercut" shit. You need that dude to have a fucked up skullet, and be wearing an old single color tunic under mail and half his weight in mismatched geegaws
Also, the Pope is a profession. There have been black Popes before, albeit really early in church history.
I disagree
"Well, I identify as a Viking" :smuglord-conservative:
The black or Chinese guy got hired by google
But neither will be promoted due to vague "lack of leadership".
No, Hes a white black or chinese guy
MFW the AI says something woke because I was typing in random catch phrases to trick it into being woke:
Very important thing to worry about, whether or not the corpo chatbot is "woke" or not
Are you serious or is this sarcasm?
considering we're the evil commie "woke" instance, you decide

WEAK whites petition DADDY google to remove EVIL POC historical figures
a Native American is portrayed as one of the founders of the United States.
Have we achieved sentience?
Honestly, the re-imagining of our oppressors as ethnic minorities is somehow even more insulting than depicting a straight up white racist.
At least with the latter, it’s true to the historical nature of the oppression. What is this even trying to achieve? Normalizing the oppression being perpetrated by the very same minorities who were on the receiving end, so it’s not just white people who did the oppression in a twisted “revisionist” way?
I feel like only white people enjoy this shit.
I think the origin of this is Google noticing "oh, whenever we ask it to draw X profession, it just draws middle aged white men. We'll make it spit out different races to any prompt to fix this!"
so one part is just blind casting, which is good for actors/producers but can be a little frustrating if they're trying to make a historical story, not a huge deal tho in a lot of cases
but i think there is an insidious bit in shit like Hamilton when the casting is part of the politics of the show and that politics is one of lib conciliation/appropriation.
No one enjoys this shit. But it makes crackers mad so I'm all for it.
I dunno, I think it's cool.
the 2nd president one, black george washington, looks rad as heck especially with the white hair, not sure why he looks so serious though
Wait to you see what it does when you ask it draw Nazi soldiers
the vikings go hard
The one on the left reminds of Leo Dicaprio, for some reason.
