    Yeah that’s the thing, it’s not even surprising. Men are socially treated as the default in our culture and especially by tech people (who are overwhelmingly men and surrounded by other men in social and professional contexts). The cultural sexualization of women showing in llms is exactly what one would expect to happen because when people are looking to use it to create a person doing a thing they’re lookin for that thing, same for a man, but for women it’s often for porn. And I would be shocked if that wasn’t a problem google had to actively combat early on.

    In short, more tech people need to read feminist theory as it relates to what they’re making
