Dear readers - I added a note to the caption regarding the image used above to clarify that we do not endorse the AI generated images we use, but rather use them to illustrate the flaws that still exist with such technologies. Previous posts have had obvious mispellings and this post obviously perpetuates stereotypes. However - I should have been clearer that our use was to illustrate the flaws of AI, not to endorse this particular photo and I apologize for not being clearer there.

Added caption below: Please note that the use of AI generated images does not constitute our endorsement of them. Rather, we use these images, in part, to illustrate the flaws that still exist in such technologies including obvious errors as well as the obvious perpetuation of stereotypes that this photo represents. In the present post, we thought the contrast between the diversity of our award participants with the stereotypes promoted by AI was noteworthy and further illustrates the need for increased research on how to improve the human-technology relationship. We will endeavor to be clearer about how we are using such images (as an example of AI's flaws vs. as endorsement) in the future.
