Google announced it is pausing its ultra-woke Gemini AI image generator, saying the tool has created historical photos with “inaccuracies.” [snip] As users probe how woke the Masters of the Universe have gone with their new tool, Google has been forced to apologize for “offering inaccuracies in some historical image generation depictions.”

Comments:

Ask for pictures of historical figures, and it generates a black George Washington, a black female Viking, and a black and East Indian Popes. AI should be AS(tupidity). What a clown show Google is. Oh, wait, what DOES their program generate as a photo of its creators?

If the images are "created" they are not historical.

The straw that apparently broke the camel’s back were pictures of black Nazis. Ironically, that’s accurate. There were lots of black members of the Waffen SS in North Africa, in particular. And some in Germany itself. The Nazis had no laws or systemic issue with blacks.

MIke's Law: For every quantity of artificial intelligence created, there will be twice as much artificial stupidity created elsewhere. A fellow engineer, named Mike, told me this with a wry grin about 20 years ago after spending a couple of years trying to adapt "AI" to do useful tasks. I think he has given us a Universal Truth about AI. Look at all the amazing quantities of Artificial Stupidity that have been washing over all the country and world!

First of all what is bandied about is not ai. It is better called BL or big lie. It is simple gaslighting software that is structured to give answers befitting the programmer's prejudice. All software works that way. Don't get me started on dominion.

Much like all of the other things that have happened with the tech companies, this is simply a feature, not a mistake. It was programed to do just what it did, just like how they shadow-ban, de-platform, etc... They wrote algorithms to achieve the desired outcome. This would only have been an mistake when it was in the "beta" test version and they realize it wasn't performing properly.

Where is the outrage because of racial appropriation? I can’t speak for anyone else, but I am outraged! How dare Google or anyone else try and erase the white man’s accomplishments. I am sick of this. Making up lies will not change truth. White men came together and created this Republic and no amount of AI shenanigans will change it. I do believe all races have their heroes and rightly so. There are many black men and women who have done amazing things, but please do not try and erase another race’s accomplishments. That is theft of the worst kind. Those individuals trying to tear down statues and erase history are doing grave injustices to history. They want us to forget out history in order that they can rewrite it to suit them. God forbid we have white men who rose to an almost insurmountable challenge and suffered grave personal sacrifices to create this Republic. I am offended when they are marginalized. Without these heroes, we would be bowing and scraping to a monarch. So knock it off! Not one more statute destroyed or defaced. No more rewriting of history and most of all no more trying to erase the white race. Point to one successful black led country in the world. Let’s get real. Telling lies and creating a false narrative does nothing for those creating the lies whether it be AI or a jealous minority. We all have a place in this world that can help us reach our potential. The race baiting crowd wants to deny some individuals credit for what they have done simply based upon the color of their skin. We cannot exist as a nation with that mindset. We all have worth and potential because of our race, the human race. Skin color is immaterial, it just makes for a beautiful and varied world.

Good to know that all the evil in the world was done by POC and that there are NO white supremacists. I know this because google cannot give an image of a white person and google runs the internet and they MUST be true. So Christopher Columbus, who genecided the Am Indians was NOT white Stalin, Mao and Hitler who killed millions were NOT white KKK and Jim Crow created by dems was NOT white people biden keeps saying white supremacy is evil but he must be wrong because google cannot produce an image of a white person. S/O I feel so much better knowing the truth google. TY for enlightening me.

In accuracies? They are outright lies in order to indoctrinate our youth. The schools should not be allowed to use this propaganda generator nor should it be available for children at all.

On the morning of Saturday, October 7, the Palestinian group Hamas carried out a surprise attack on Israel on an unprecedented scale: firing thousands of rockets, infiltrating militants into Israeli territory, and taking an unknown number of hostages. [snip] For insight into what this means for Israel, the Palestinians, and the region, Foreign Affairs turned to Martin Indyk, the Lowy Distinguished Fellow in U.S.-Middle East Diplomacy at the Council on Foreign Relations. Indyk has twice served as U.S. ambassador to Israel, first from 1995 to 1997 and again from 2000 to 2001.

Terrrible tragedy struck the city of Lahaina on Maui on Aug. 8, with at least 114 dead and 1000 people still missing, including many children. Speaking on Daily Wire, pundit Michael Knowles said that arson is “the most likely culprit … apparently, in the mind of Hawaiian officials.” “For years now, people have intentionally set fires all over Maui. As Maui Mayor Michael Victorino noted just last year, fire and police suspect someone is intentionally setting them. Just a couple weeks ago, Hawaiian police responded to two fires on Maui. One started by an unattended cooking fire, the other, apparently, intentionally set."

It should not come as a surprise that the House of Mouse has been bullying conservatives inside the company.

Bounding into Comics dropped an explosive report Tuesday revealing that a whistleblower has come forward describing how Disney is “systemically persecuting” conservatives. Moreover, the woke company has mandated that employees keep Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) diaries which determine whether employees would receive promotions, raises, or even keep their job. Disney is essentially running their company precisely how Communist China rules over its citizens.

It’s showtime – and both lab leak enthusiasts and those who believe in natural origins (the ‘zoonati’) are nervous. No later than Sunday, and perhaps sooner, America’s director of National Intelligence must, by law, “declassify” and make public all “information relating to the origins of Covid-19”. It could be a huge moment, or a terrible anticlimax. By the time the deadline is reached, it will have been 1,265 days since news of a “mystery pneumonia” first emerged from Wuhan – and for much of that time a small group of US intelligence officials have anonymously been briefing that the virus came from a lab.

A jury found Wayne LaPierre and the National Rifle Association liable in a New York state civil corruption trial Friday, ruling that LaPierre misappropriated millions of dollars when he was NRA chief executive officer to finance a lavish lifestyle while the gun-rights organization neglected proper financial management. After five days of deliberations, the jury held that LaPierre cost the NRA $5.4 million, even accounting for the $1 million he had previously repaid. The trial in the lawsuit brought by New York attorney general Letitia James in 2020 came after a three-year investigation into the NRA, which is registered as a nonprofit organization in New York.

Joe Biden may be trying to revive his presidency by bringing out his inner "Dark Brandon," but according to all the polls the American people aren't buying it one little bit. It's just any poll. It's every poll. Including the granddaddy of them all, Gallup, which just released its new numbers on Biden's ratings with the voters, and the news is simply devastating. WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Americans’ approval of President Joe Biden’s job performance has edged down three percentage points to 38%, just one point shy of his all-time low and well below the 50% threshold that has typically led to reelection for incumbents.

Former Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan is holding a commanding lead over the top Democratic candidate for Senate, according to a new poll.

LGBT Pride Month isn’t until June, but planning is well underway. (snip) It’s been suggested that Christian Pride become a counter-weight to LGBT Pride. (snip) Nothing good ever comes from pride. “Pride leads to every other vice: it is the complete anti-God state of mind,” wrote Oxford scholar and Cambridge Professor C.S. Lewis in his book Mere Christianity. If you think that’s a harsh assessment of pride, Reformed Christian theologian, R.C. Sproul, Jr. took the issue back to its biblical core. “Pride is what brought the devil down in the first place. It is then the root sin of sin, both for him and for us.”
