Microsoft Engineer Raises Alarm on Copilot's Offensive Content

A Microsoft engineer has publicly voiced concerns over the safety of the Copilot image generator, citing its production of offensive and inappropriate content.

Microsoft engineer Shane Jones has publicly raised concerns about the safety of the Copilot image generator, urging the FTC to intervene.
Jones's testing revealed that Copilot Designer can bypass safety measures to produce offensive images, including sexualized content and violent imagery.
Despite repeated attempts to address these issues internally, Microsoft has not taken significant action, according to Jones.
Jones's concerns highlight systemic flaws in Copilot's design and the need for better safeguards.
The controversy raises questions about the responsibility of AI developers to ensure their products do not perpetuate harmful stereotypes or violate copyright.
