TL;DR: Woman missing an arm couldn't get AI image generators to generate an amputee. It apparently didn't know how. Now it does and the woman says the representation is important.

I guess it couldn't find enough art to steal of amputees for it to form enough of a basis to draw them? And so in reaction to the backlash (such as it was), they gave it more data?

Despite living with one arm, Jess doesn't see herself as disabled, saying the barriers she faces are societal.

Actually, this is what disability is all about. It's not that people can't complete tasks or take care of themselves, it's that society doesn't provide the same tools to disabled people that they provide to so called "able bodied" people to allow them to complete those tasks.

It's the trope of the single grocery store that everyone goes to, but the person in a wheelchair, but otherwise able, can't use because there's a curb. So, suddenly they can't feed themselves. It's not that they are unable to feed themselves, it's that they can't access the food without assistance and thus are "disabled". As soon as a ramp is installed they are no longer "disabled", just differently abled.

Inherent bias is going to get worse and worse if we let AI roam free.
