In a story about racism AI mixed-race people all look alike
Software King of the World's Microsoft's decision replace jounalists with AI has already hit a wall. Vole has been slammed after its automated system confused two mixed-race members of British pop group Little Mix.
The AI selected a story about Little Mix singer Jade Thirlwall’s experience with racism to appear on the homepage, but used a picture of Thirlwall’s bandmate Leigh-Anne Pinnock to illustrate it. After all, they were both in the popular beat combo and they were both the same colour so they must be the same.
Thirlwall drew attention to the mistake on her Instagram story, writing: “@MSN If you’re going to copy and paste articles from other accurate media outlets, you might want to make sure you’re using an image of the correct mixed race member of the group.”
She added: “This **** happens to @leighannepinnock and I ALL THE TIME that it’s become a running joke ... It offends me that you couldn’t differentiate the two women of colour out of four members of a group … DO BETTER!”
