Another interesting point comes at around 11:35 - an example of a bias in AI generation.

Because AI hasn't had the proper DEI training and just sees everything as just what it is?

I am absolutely against presenting Sherlock Holmes as a black lady or banning books and movies that were considered normal some 15 (and more) years ago.

But the example in the interview surprised me - the podcaster said he wanted to generate background (a shelf of a fireplace) for Christmas photos of kids from a kindergarten where his daughter was going. And he noticed that the fireplace generated by AI for white kids was more fancy than the one generated for afroamerican or hispanic kids. I will attach screenshots from the video.

If I was a kid, I would have been disappointed if I was assigned a brick fireplace without any decoration whereas my school friends from the same group got a nicely decorated ones on their photos (based on the colour of their skin, as it seems). That�s all.
