AI Tool Midjourney Fabricates Politician Portraits Based on Stereotypes
- An AI tool called Midjourney can generate fake politician portraits from text prompts like "Florida politician"
- The AI-generated politician portraits tended to depict middle-aged or older white males
- Occasionally the AI would generate women or people of color based on the state
- The AI followed regional stereotypes like cowboy hats for Texas and leis for Hawaii
- None of the AI-generated portraits are of real people, they are fabricated by the AI
