It’s hard to explain how complex the development of algorithms really is. Nowadays the eggheads are relying on AI to build them with a few cues and feeds from various sources. This whole incident tells me that Google fed their algorithm A LOT of lefty bullshit. Reversing that course is honestly a yeomans effort. They have to scrap it all and start from scratch.
Google is honestly as evil as they come. I’ve worked with their engineers and what many of them don’t bring with incompetence they make up for with left wing ideological pabulum.
Incredibly ironic for a business whose motto once was “Don’t be evil.”
I don’t think they really messed with the core programming of the AI but the interface that fed the request to the AI image generator. I believe Google just had a filter that not only appended woke search terms like “inclusive” and “minority” as well as assigning weights to users search terms.
