The recent suspension of Google's Gemini artificial intelligence chatbot's image-generating feature has sparked widespread criticism from conservatives, who accuse the tech giant of promoting leftist propaganda and rewriting history. Google's purported commitment to diversity has been called into question, with many decrying its efforts as a thinly veiled attempt to manipulate reality.
Social media was inundated with examples of Gemini's biased outputs, including depictions of historical figures such as a black George Washington, female popes, and Native American Founding Fathers. The Verge and The New York Times reported alarming results, including Gemini's refusal to generate images of white couples and its tendency to favor Chinese or black pairings.

Google's response, attributing its biased outputs to a desire to avoid perpetuating stereotypes and biases, was met with skepticism. Conservative commentator Ian Miles Cheong lambasted Gemini's woke AI, exposing its absurdity in depicting iconic works of art and historical figures. The incident underscores concerns about the left's influence on Big Tech and its potential to distort reality.
Despite Google's promise to address the issues with Gemini's image generation feature, skepticism remains high. Prominent voices like William A. Jacobson and Margaret Mitchell have warned against Google's pursuit of "anti-bias," highlighting the creation of bias within their systems and the manipulation of data to fit a leftist agenda.
The Western Journal, alongside conservatives nationwide, continues to push back against Big Tech's leftist indoctrination and efforts to control the narrative. By standing together, we can resist attempts to rewrite history and shape the future according to the whims of the America-hating left. Join us in the fight for truth and integrity, and together, we will ensure that our heritage remains untainted by radical agendas.
