      Nope… because I just tried it as a white male and got back a pure Asian man using the same prompts… and I’ll be damned if I’m not jealous/sad because the man it spit back out was way better looking than me…

        I’ll be honest, I wish I could look half as cool as Simu Liu does. He’s probably my standard of “handsome man” and I have learned that I’ll never look like him.

      Which model did they use, and what was it specialized for? Was professional headshots what it was designed for? Those are the issues to be mad at. Not something as ambiguous as “AI”.
