’s Imagen 2 image generation feature in Gemini gathered headlines in February when it produced highly inaccurate portrayals of historical subjects. The company wanted its AI image generation tool to avoid the pitfalls of bias and depictions of real people. However, in an effort to be more inclusive, the tool that it created went too far into the other end of the spectrum, where it had some bias against light-skinned people.

had to pull Imagen 2 three weeks after its launch to fix it.

The company said it would relaunch the image generation tool in a few weeks, and it finally did so nearly 20 weeks after the pull-out.

says it will continue improving it through user feedback.
