    I don’t like the idea of a prompt being subtly manipulated like this to “force” inclusion. Instead the training data should be augmented and the AI re-trained on a more inclusive dataset.

    The prompt given by the user shouldn’t be prefixed or suffixed by additional words, sentences or phrases; except to remind the AI what it is not allowed to generate.

    Instead of forcing “inclusivity” on the end user in such a manner; we should instead allow the user to pick skin tone preferences in an easy to understand manner, and allow the AI to process that signal as a part of it’s natural prompt.

    Obviously; where specific characters are concerned, the default skin tone of the character named in the prompt should be encoded and respected. If multiple versions of that character exist, it should take a user’s skin tone output selection into account and select the closest matching version.

    If the prompt is requesting a skin tone alteration of a character; that prompt should obviously be honored as well, and executed with the requested skin tone; and not the skin tone setting selection. As an example I can select “Prefer ligher skin tones” in the UI and still request that the AI should generate me a “darker skinned version” of a typically fairer skinned character.

    Instead of focusing on forcing “diversity” into prompts that didn’t ask for it; let’s just make sure that the AI has the full range of human traits available to it to pull from.
