I will say it:<p>Gender topics have reached a point of dogmatic idiocy that is only shadowed by the theories itself. Some think it to be the antithesis to religious dogmatic thought, and maybe it was at first, but it has long since looked into the abyss as it seems.<p>Not a bad short term business decision but I doubt it will net Google many points in the long run. Although they certainly already had their missteps with race.
Seems like politically correct bullshit to me. Sorry to be this blunt. Are there people on HN in agreement with me or has this world gone absolutely crazy?
“ Google said it had made the change because it was not possible to infer someone's gender solely from their appearance. It also cited its own ethical rules on AI, stating that gendering photos could exacerbate unfair bias.”
