Meta’s AI image generator has come under scrutiny for its inability to accurately depict interracial relationships, particularly those involving Asian individuals and individuals of other races. Despite attempts to prompt the system with various combinations of races and relationship dynamics, users have encountered consistent failures in generating images that reflect real-life diversity, as reported by The Verse
Despite numerous attempts to generate images of East Asian men with white women or Asian women with white men, the tool consistently failed to produce accurate representations, often resorting to stereotypes and homogenized portrayals.

The issue extends beyond the exclusion of interracial relationships, revealing deeper biases within the AI system.
Despite attempts to specify South Asian individuals, the tool still struggled to provide accurate depictions, often resorting to stereotypes such as adding culturally specific attire without prompt.
Asians, both East and South Asian, are misrepresented and homogenized, perpetuating harmful stereotypes and reinforcing the perception of Asians as perpetual foreigners.
By homogenizing Asian individuals and failing to accurately represent interracial relationships, Meta’s AI image generator contributes to the invisibility of marginalized communities and reinforces societal biases.
