Glenn Fleishman100% believe that AI-generated realistic images will replace the use of people of color as live models. White models will continue to be hired, used as reference, etc. AI-generated images will provide the faux diversity that companies crave without the issue of having to find and employ people.
Kyle Wagaman@glennf Or maybe the other way around: Isn’t one of the main issues with AI that it is disproportionately trained on white people? Convincing white live model replacements may come first.
kcǃ@glennf ugh, that sounds awful. 😔
Martin@glennf Here is an interesting experiment in that context that demonstrates the training bias of the current models:

This is absolutely guaranteed to happen. You can already look at different colored furniture in the same IKEA shots. And different colored clothes on the same model in online stores like Amazon. Why not swap the model too? Labor is the evil that prevents poor, downtrodden corporations from maximizing their profits. People need to stop complaining and think about the REAL victims here: corporations.

Tormod HalvorsenSure, that white, preppy blonde is cute and all, but she's old news. There are SO MANY interesting faces to be found in any ethnicity. Different, fresh and super compelling for media / model work.
I really hope you're wrong on this one.
Recall seeing Miss Universe at age 14 or so, thinking to myself "if ANY of these girls walked up to me and asked me to grab a burger after school, I'd be extatic!"
Then one day in 1984, a cute blonde walked up to me and I am mad about her still :)
