Report says AI tools edit faces of people with visible differences without consent
People with scars, birthmarks and other visible conditions say artificial intelligence tools modify or remove their features without authorization, according to testimonies revealed to the BBC. The outlet tested several systems with images of a man and a woman with facial differences: when asked to make them "normal", Gemini, Grok and ChatGPT removed the mark on the first attempt. Anthropic's Claude and Meta's AI refused. Google said Gemini applies safeguards against harmful content, though it does not always get it right; OpenAI said reducing bias is a priority and Grok's team did not respond.
