  • In this case it’s that the AI was race switching known historical figures. But that does highlight the problem. You can’t just tell the AI that Europeans are white because it’s never actually been true. There were POC all over Europe for basically all of recorded history. There just isn’t a switch to flip here, the AI needs to be able to understand race in context.



  • It’s a real challenge. The datasets all have genuine bias built in and identifying and correcting it is incredibly difficult. I mean, there WERE people of color in historic Europe, lots of them. So you can’t correct this by just making them all white because that isn’t necessarily more accurate. But yeah, we know that King George wasn’t black.
