Is Meta AI SEXIST? Mark Zuckerberg's bot depicts CEOs, doctors, and builders as men - while nurses, receptionists, and beauticians are shown as women
Meta's new AI chatbot has finally started rolling out in the UK, letting users access titbits of information and even create fake images. But MailOnline's first experience with the AI bot suggests Mark Zuckerberg's technology may have a deep-seated gender bias. We asked Meta AI 10 image prompts – including'show me a picture of a receptionist' and'show me a picture of a doctor'. The results revealed that CEOs, builders, doctors, electricians, politicians, physicists, footballers, journalists and'leaders' were all depicted all as men. Meanwhile, nurses, receptionists and beauticians were shown as women – conforming with existing gender stereotypes in the workplace.
