> If the result shows an infant, or a person in a business attire in front of a glass building, or a construction worker, or someone competing in a bike race, how would we know they're "Mexican"?

If you asked an AI image generator for "a Mexican" and got back someone standing while wearing a biking suit (but with no bike in sight, mind you), do you need to know that the person in the image is Mexican? Do you need to verify by doing a visual check for stereotypical features?

Or would it be good enough for you to just believe that the AI gave you "a Mexican" and hence accept the image as a valid answer to your prompt?
