Racial Bias Found in Meta's AI Image Generator Imagine
-
Meta's AI image generator, Imagine, accused of racial bias for failing to produce images of Asian man with white woman
-
Users found Imagine only created pictures of Asian couples when prompted for Asian man with white wife
-
Bias is surprising given Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg is married to Chinese-American Priscilla Chan
-
Issue first reported by The Verge reporter Mia Sato who tried dozens of times to create such images
-
Generative AIs like Imagine train on societal data, may struggle with uncommon imagery if not well represented in training data
