Google have just shot themselves in the foot with their release of Gemini. Social and mainstream media has been flooded with pieces showing that their text and image generation behaves like some crazed activist teenager.When asked to create images of a German soldier it created black, Asian and female faces, so keen was it to be ‘diverse’. I won’t give other examples, but it almost looks as of the Gemini …
