Bing's AI Image Generator Sparks Controversy with 9/11 Depictions

Microsoft's Bing image generator, integrated with OpenAI's DALL-E 3, has been found to have a loophole allowing users to create art featuring copyrighted characters and the Twin Towers. After users generated photos of beloved animated characters flying planes into the Twin Towers, Microsoft blocked prompts like 'twin towers' and 'world trade center', but the generator can still produce the towers with some word changes. Microsoft plans to improve its systems to prevent the creation of harmful content, but users have found ways to circumvent the content filtering. The developers of DALL-E 3 acknowledge that their safety measures are not perfect and are constantly being upgraded.
