It reinforces Western interpretations. The patterns used to train generative AI are still biased and unreliable in that sense.
You can train a model right now for free. It's all open source. You provide the data and get the output you want. AI picture generation is not magic, it has to draw it's info from SOMEWHERE.
This article is 200% nonsense.
No. It reinforces the interpretation of whoever trained the model. Those people don't have to be western.
It's not just about individual people, it's about where money and power is located. Where are the top universities located? In which sphere do the biggest, wealthiest and most powerful corporations and organisations operate? Western bias permeates every fabric of modern society because of how dominant Western culture has been throughout history in terms of money and power. It inevitably filters through to AI, because the data being used to train it is just a reflection of what is available. That happens to be data pulled from, or narrated by, Western culture.
