Nope… because I just tried it as a white male and got back a pure Asian man using the same prompts… and I’ll be damned if I’m not jealous/sad because the man it spit back out was way better looking than me…

I'll be honest, I wish I could look half as cool as Simu Liu does. He's probably my standard of "handsome man" and I have learned that I'll never look like him.
