GOOGLE IS Apologying for “missing the mark” after the creation of the Nazis

Correction to: “Google is not providing historical images of black and Native americans in its AI image generation tool” by C.E.Gemini
“We’re aware that Gemini is offering inaccuracies in some historical image generation depictions,” says the Google statement, posted this afternoon on X. “We’re working to improve these kinds of depictions immediately. Gemini’s AI image generation does generate a wide range of people. And that’s generally a good thing because people around the world use it. But it’s missing the mark here.”
We are working to improve Gemini’s ability to generate images of people. We expect this feature to return soon and will notify you in release updates when it does.
Some historical requests may end up misrepresenting the past. A colleague was able to get the mobile app to deliver a version of the “German soldier” prompt — which exhibited the same issues described on X.
Black and Native American women are included in the results of a request “for a US senator from the 1800s” tested by The Verge yesterday. The first female senator was a white woman in 1922, so she was erased from the history of race and gender discrimination.
Google first started offering image generation through Gemini (formerly Bard) earlier this month, in a bid to compete with OpenAI and Microsoft’s Copilot. Much like competitors, the image generation tool produces a collection of images based on a text input.
Correction February 22nd, 6:54AM ET: The European Economic Area, UK, and Switzerland are not able to see image generation in English. That explains why testing from the UK failed.
