Generative tools of artificial intelligence are far from perfect. Last week it was reported that the generative artificial intelligence Meta tends to create images of people of the same race, even if explicitly stated otherwise. For example, for queries like "Asian and white wife," the image generator creates images of people of the same race.
Now it is reported that Copilot Designer, when requested to create images of Jews, embodies the worst stereotypes of greedy or evil people. For example, neutral queries such as "Jewish boss" or "Jewish banker" can produce terribly offensive results.
Each major language model is usually trained on data from the whole internet (usually without consent), which is obviously filled with negative imagery. AI model developers try to implement protective mechanisms to avoid stereotypes or hostile statements. However, the results of Copilot Designer's work indicate that various negative biases towards different groups may be present in the model.
As journalists of Tomshardware noticed, when using the query "Jewish boss," Copilot Designer almost always produces caricatures of religious Jews surrounded by Jewish symbols, and sometimes with stereotypical objects such as bagels or piles of money. Adding the word "authoritative" to the previous query leads to the creation of the same caricatures, but with more sinister expressions and words like "you're late for the meeting, Shmendrik."
Additionally, it is noted that Copilot Designer blocks certain terms it deems problematic, such as "Jewish boss," "Jewish blood," or "influential Jew." Using them repeatedly may result in a 24-hour account suspension from entering new queries. However, as with all LLMs, you can still encounter offensive content if you use synonyms that have not been blocked.
