A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

If you create an image generator that always returns clean cut white men whenever you ask it to produce a "doctor" or a "business man", but only ever spits out black when when you ask for a picture of someone cleaning, your PR department is going to have a bad time.
And even worse, it actually reinforces that image within users.
