It would appear the woke mind virus / DEI was deeply embedded into the core of the AI.

It refused to generate images of white people.

For example:

People would ask it to generate something like a picture of a German couple in 1820 and it would spit out images of Asian and Black couples.

Pictures of the founding fathers would also include weird things like native Americans and other ethnicities.

Other historical prompts would result in the same output - no white people.

Basically the AI went woke af.

Not sure it's embedded deep into the core of AI. If that were the case, prompt injection, which is what is believed to be the cause here, would not be needed. It very well may be that such racism isn't possible to embed into the core without destroying basic functionality, which is why the racists need to add prompt injection and, in some cases, an output filter to catch things that don't conform to their narrow, racist vision for humanity.

Remember that terrible feeling you have of being the victim of racism as a white man, and recall it next time you hear somebody who's not a white man complaining about being discriminated against or bullied when it comes to their day to day life and activities like getting a job, buying a house, or just trying to live their lives.

That's called empathy. It's not a weakness, it's a virtue, whether you signal it or not. Now that you've been enlightened and seen you're actually capable of empathy, you're more woke than you were before, and less of a bully, and less of an bigoted asshole.

Is that really so terrible? Can you now live with being woke and empathic now by choice, without even suffering as much as all those other human beings who have to live with ACTUAL day-to-day racism and sexism and homophobia against them without having any choice about it?

I agree that it's a meaningful experience to have as a white person.

I don't like your suggesting that the AI model beign human-adjusted to exclude people of a certain race is not "ACTUAL" racism.

so we should solve racism by being even more racist?

Now I've experienced racism I can now be racist in the name of making people more empathetic. Don't worry you n*** this is making you better people.
