AI imaging software generates a gallery of stereotypes, say Univ. of Washington researchers

BOT or NOT?


If you’re asked to imagine a person from North America or a woman from Venezuela, what do they look like? If you give an AI-powered imaging program the same prompts, odds are the software will generate stereotypical responses.

A “person” will usually be male and light-skinned.

A woman from Latin American countries will more often be sexualized than European and Asian women.
