There's all kinds of bias. Prompting for "person" gives me 99% white results. I'm a white guy living in a white world, disconnected from the wider world, usually not taking any effort to do something else. Even this model was Dreambooth trained with photos of white people.
But training for "style" appears to be tremendously powerful. My training set consisting of a narrow slice of a few white people doesn't seem to matter here?
I prove myself wrong so many times I've lost count.

AI will make the creation of technically excellent art available to the masses. What does this mean to current artists? Do artists become extinct?
NO, I would argue. A short thread… 🧵
By “technically excellent art” I mean the way things look like. AI generated art will look spec-ta-cu-lar. Better than the skill level of 99% of artists. Already things like DALL·E 2 show what will be possible, and it’s just the beginning. Minds will be blown.
There’s a fundamental shift of importance, from the execution of the artwork onto what happens before and after creation. If you’re a competent artist, but with no message to tell, no unique style, you're in trouble. When everyone’s art looks amazing, how you do stand out?
