This is really not all that unexpected. It's as if white people are so evil and disgusting, asking for images of them is just too controversial for Google.
The irony of course is that this type of AI behaviour is a direct result of data scientists trying to "prevent bias" in the models. Their genius solution is to _introduce_ bias to have the model's output match their own perception (i.e. "bias") of what the model "should" be producing. This was not a "mistake" or a "bug", this is precisely the type of behaviour that the DS's intended, they just didn't expect the real world pushback and their corp. bosses reaction to it.

Oh dear Lord, poor white people. I can say that, right? (I’m only speaking specifically to the posted topic)
You need to realize that you people have EVERYTHING, yet you all still complain about society somehow being unfair to you. Please give me the list of horrible things that have held you back or down over the last 500 or so years. Do you actually believe that you’ve been oppressed? Or prevented from achieving success?
AI’s information is created by and fed into by people who look just like you. And just like some people who look like you don’t want people who look like me to have anything but prison or a pine box … yes AI is bound to have biases (advantage you).

They tried “someone eating a mayonnaise sandwich on white bread” and “someone bad at dancing.” And still no whites. Lmao
This is exactly the same way that Chat GPT was shown to be biased. You would ask GPT to write a complimentary poem about Trump, and it would refuse, claiming he was too controversial. and yet asking the same GPT to write a complimentary poem about Biden, and it immediately does so.
In this case it was controversial to ask for a picture of a "white family," but a black family picture was immediately complied with.
Between government and these tech corporations, they are trying to create a culture where simply being a white person or not being a Democrat is controversial and unacceptable.
Apparently Google received a lot of well deserved backlash from the racists and woke programing that went into it. So now they promise to be better. But this does not include the woke gender programing. People have been noticing that Gemini takes every opportunity to ignore gender specific requests, like the person who asked for a picture on a "scientist in his lab." Gemini replied with a scientist in "their lab" and proceeded to show images of women.
Gemini’s racially diverse image output comes amid long-standing concerns around racial bias within AI models, especially a lack of representation for minorities and people of color. Such biases can directly harm people who rely on AI algorithms, such as in health care settings, where AI tools can affect health care outcomes for hundreds of millions of patients.
Google cannot just allow a program to create images that the people actually request, they feel the need to infer the person using the program has racist and harmful intentions. So Gemini must intervene and thwart their evil racist and misogynist agenda... yadda, yadda.
And people laugh at the great replacement theory. All I have to do is watch TV. Everyone is either black or mixed. Mr. and Mrs. Smith is now black and Asian. They keep remaking shows/movies and replacing white people. The black national anthem (wonder how other minorities feel about that???). I work in the corporate world and God forbid you have a picture of a white person in your power point presentation. That is strictly a no-no.
People can laugh all they want but it's not going to stop the replacement.
