Google has similar issue as when you search for images of "white couple" - half of results are not a white couple.

WTF that's disgusting, they're actively manipulating information.

If you write "black couple" you only get actual black couples.


Or maybe we should scream loud to get manipulated results out from google. It could work with current attempts of political correctness. /j


This is conspiratorial thinking.

If I'm looking for stock photos, the default "couple" is probably going to be a white couple. They'll just label images with "black couple" so people can be more specific.


Wow yeah, some company should invent some image classifying algorithms so this sort of thing doesn't have to happen.
