Google still hasn't fixed Gemini's biased image generator
Back in February, Google paused its AI-powered chatbot Gemini's ability to generate images of people after users complained of historical inaccuracies. This decision came after Google CEO Sundar Pichai issued an apology for the inaccuracies in Gemini's image generation.
The Delay in the Fix
Despite promises of a quick fix within a couple of weeks, Google has yet to address the issue. The lack of progress has left users wondering when Gemini's image generator will be back online.
Google's efforts to address biases in image datasets have led to implementation challenges. The datasets used to train image generators often contain more images of white people than individuals from other racial and ethnic backgrounds, perpetuating stereotypes and biases. Google's attempts to correct these biases have led to complications in finding a balanced solution.
The Future of Gemini
Google's recent announcements at its annual I/O developer conference showcased various new features of Gemini, excluding the image generation of people. While the company continues to enhance Gemini with new capabilities, the issue of biased image generation remains unresolved.
Google's advancements in AI extend beyond Gemini, with new features and products announced at the conference. From Gemini Live for natural conversations to enhancements in Google TV and Workspace integration, Google continues to push the boundaries of AI technology.
