Google has temporarily halted the Gemini image generation feature of its artificial intelligence technology due to user complaints regarding image accuracy inconsistencies. The platform faced criticism, leading to the decision to address the issue.
Google halts Gemini, its artificial intelligence platform.
Some Gemini prompts have produced images that are completely unrelated to the user’s request, such as generating Asian welding images instead of German soldiers in World War II.
The platform created images of black individuals to depict the white “Founding Fathers of the United States,” including figures like John Adams, George Washington, and Benjamin Franklin.
Google aims to address the issue.
Google is dedicated to addressing these concerns while Gemini is temporarily unavailable, with plans to restore the service shortly. In the meantime, users are encouraged to utilize Gemini for creating images related to different topics like landscapes, scenery, and products.
We’re already working to address recent issues with Gemini’s image generation feature. While we do this, we’re going to pause the image generation of people and will re-release an improved version soon. https://t.co/SLxYPGoqOZ
