I don't buy the ethics but I do buy the obvious PR nightmare that would inevitably happen if journalists could play with this and immediately publish their findings of "racist imagery generated by googles AI". That's all it's about and us complaining is not going to make them change their minds.

Then they should be honest about it. They can use all the PR lingo they want but don't flat out lie about it.

Lying about ethics or misattributing their actions to some misguided sense of "social" responsibility puts google in a far worse light in my eyes. I can't help but wonder how many skilled employees were driven off from accepting a position at google because of lies like these.

There already is an article calling DALL E racist and it isn’t even public yet. Just imagine what horrible things the general public will get it to spit out.
