Automated image generators are often accused of spreading harmful stereotypes. We wanted to find out how biased different tools are and compared the results when using the same prompt across MidJourney, Kandinsky and Adobe Firefly.

Take a look at the results: https://algorithmwatch.org/en/image-generators-stereotypes-diversity/

Some image generators produce more problematic stereotypes than others, but all fail at diversity - AlgorithmWatch

Automated image generators are often accused of spreading harmful stereotypes, but studies usually only look at MidJourney. Other tools make serious efforts to increase diversity in their output, but effective remedies remain elusive.

@algorithmwatch I would like to boost this post. Would you mind editing it and adding alt text to the image, so that people who cannot see it know what it shows?
