After Nine blamed an 'automation' error in Photoshop for producing an edited image of Georgie Purcell, I set out to find out what the software would do to other politicians.

This isn't about nonconsenual images, it's about bias in AI models. They used the extend image feature in both images and because the models think women=sexy it produces them in bikini bottoms and men=business it puts them in suits.

This is going to be an ongoing issue in how generative AI assumes things based on the prompt/input image - https://www.bloomberg.com/graphics/2023-generative-ai-bias/
