    I wonder why that matters? What is to stop conservatives creating their

    the superior product win because of its innate superiority, regardless of “political preference”!

    That got blown out of the water when their image generation IA
    depicted the founding fathers as black, and refused to image strong
    white man while happily imaging a strong black man.

    I hope you are joking. The nature of many modern tech markets is that
    it's extremely difficult for a newer/smaller comptitor to compete with
    the market leaders. What's the marketshare of GNU/Linux, despite
    being arguably as good an OS as Windows?

    Virtually every invention you take for granted was invented by or improved
    by a woman or POV.
