History? George Washington was always Black, Genghis Khan was always white, and Julius Caesar was always an albino Japanese woman. Also, Oceania has always been at war with Eastasia, war is peace and freedom is slavery.
From my more substantive comment at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39471003:
> The Ministry of Truth in Orwell’s 1984 would have loved this sort of thing. Why go to the work of manually rewriting history when you can just generate a new one on demand? … Generative AI should strive to be actually unbiased. That means it should not skew numbers in either direction, for anyone.
FWIW the government in 1984 actually had automated content generation, since thats how they produced pornography for the proles.
