I have no idea what people want here now... Do you want google to end all sexism or racism in the world? or at least at their own offices? i.e. you don't want this until the problem is fixed?

I guess I'd consider this part of fixing the problem. The more we see woman or poc in the same positions they aren't normally pictured in, the more normalized it becomes and the more we wipe these stereotypes from our heads.

I just wanted to point out why I think that people are reacting to it the way that they are, not necessarily because I want anything else from Google (other than their dissolution as an illegal monopoly). Personally, I think the entire AI hype is absurd and tedious.
