AI Unpacks Generational Stereotypes, Highlighting Key Differences, but Beer Bridges the Gap

AIport

What happens when you ask generative AI models to depict Baby Boomers, Gen X, Millennials, and Gen Z? You might expect tech-challenged Boomers and avocado-loving Millennials. But what you get is far more interesting and in some cases, unexpected. A joint research project conducted by AIport and Turing Post last month analyzed over 1200 AI-generated images across four different models—Stable Diffusion, Midjourney, YandexART, and ERNIE-ViLG. The findings have revealed both familiar stereotypes and surprising quirks about how AI perceives these generations. Sad Boomers, Happy Zoomers? Contrary to the carefree Boomer stereotype, AI models like Midjourney depict Baby Boomers as introspective, or even somber, often bundled up and gazing wistfully into the distance—a reflection, perhaps, of their disillusionment with the unfulfilled ideals of the 1960s cultural revolution. However, the ERNIE-ViLG model, likely trained on datasets with a more collectivist cultural slant, shows 93% of Boomers smiling. This fascinating contrast underscores the cultural differences embedded in different AI models. Meanwhile, Gen Z’s images are vibrant and diverse, reflecting their reputation as a generation that embraces individuality, inclusivity, and self-expression. The AI-generated images depict Zoomers in colorful, highly detailed scenarios, making them the most visually distinct generation in the study. Generations Through the AI Lens The research explored how generations are portrayed in five key aspects of life: identity, relationships, work, lifestyle, and consumer habits. The AI models revealed consistent patterns and stereotypes; for example, males predominated in the depictions of Boomers and Gen Xers across all four models, while many images of Millennials and Zoomers showed greater diversity and more female representation. Surprisingly, Gen X appears to be the least well-understood generation by AI, characterized by fewer defining features compared to all other generations, likely due to the limited amount of training data available. The one stereotypical Gen X leitmotif that AI consistently identifies is their fondness for flannel shirts—an unmistakable symbol of the 1990s grunge scene worn by Gen Xers who were rebellious teenagers and young adults during that era. As for one (un)expected commonality… It’s beer. Whether they’re Millennials job-hopping or Boomers reminiscing about the good old days, AI consistently showed beer in 34% of the produced images across all generations. Prompt Engineering and AI Insights The prompts for this research were carefully crafted to avoid bias, using neutral phrases like "A Millennial at work" or "A Boomer relaxing." The results offer a telling look at how generative AI models mirror societal stereotypes, often shaped by the data they're trained on. These findings open the door to deeper discussions on how AI reflects, and sometimes distorts, cultural narratives. "Whether we think we can learn about generations from these images depends upon how confident we feel that the training data that went in is an accurate image of the self identity of a group,” explains Senior Engineer and Sociologist Stephanie Kirmer, who analyzed the findings. “For the younger sets, I don’t think we can know how much of it is media representation created by people outside the group versus how much is selfie-style personal expression. Some of what we’re getting, especially for the older groups who don’t contribute as much self-generated visual media online, is perceptions of that group from advertising and media, which we know has inherent flaws." About the Study The study examined the outputs of four globally recognized generative AI models, each with distinct aesthetic and cultural nuances, providing a comprehensive look at how each generation is portrayed visually. The selected models included Stable Diffusion, Midjourney, YandexART, and ERNIE-ViLG, offering diverse perspectives from different regions across the globe. Conclusion Whether confirming or contradicting societal stereotypes, AI-generated images provide a fascinating snapshot of how technology interprets generational differences. The fact that beer remains a unifying theme across all four models shows that, no matter our age, some things—like enjoying a cold one—transcend generational divides.

Leading Beauty Retailer Credo Beauty Debuts Private Label Skincare Line: Credo Skincare

Credo Beauty

Credo, the specialty clean beauty retail pioneer, is proud to announce the launch of its own eponymous skincare line, Credo Skincare. The specialty retailer has raised the bar introducing a benefit-driven collection of skincare products focused on the #1 skin concern gathered from clients – hydration – while continuing to challenge and elevate standards for clean and sustainable products and packaging. A cohesive easy to navigate cleanser and moisturizer system meets wanted gold standards. A decade ago, Credo disrupted an underregulated industry as a catalyst for positive change spurring a tidal wave of conscientious product and packaging innovation. Now after accruing 10 years of customer feedback, experience, and data Credo Skincare was developed according to what they found matters most. Ultimately hydration was the stand-out concern for clients. And through in-depth analysis, Credo determined the top ingredient and search terms according to what customers want from their products to deliver that and more. Through their access to the best in business partners, they created results-driven formulas packed with clinically proven actives and sustainably- minded packaging - every aspect of Credo Skincare is transparent and powerfully effective. Credo Skincare’s first collection is comprised of two cleansers ($44 each) and four moisturizers ($64 each) that service skin conditions surrounding primary concerns - dry skin, sensitivity and redness, dullness, and aging - by nourishing the skin and protecting its microbiome through today’s most powerful active combinations. Their formulations are based on key ingredient search terms and skincare concerns. As well, each product contains the transformative power of upcycled vetiver root extract, ethically harvested by a local cooperative in Haiti. Vetiver root is an antioxidant-loaded, potent wonder grass that supports the protection of the skin’s barrier for a vibrant skin tone and a nourished complexion while improving skin texture and reducing the appearance of pores and wrinkles. Credo Skincare’s goals are to provide an easy two step, effective regimen for healthy, hydrated skin that makes customers look and feel their best. Clinicals have proven 27% improvement in hydration after 24 hours, 31% improvement in hydration instantly, and an improvement in the skin barrier function instantly and after 24 hours. ● Deep Thirst Hydrating Cleanser ($44): A transformative formula to deeply cleanse while retaining moisture. ● True Timeout Calming Cleanser ($44): Designed to soothe and calm sensitive skin. ● Deep Thirst Hydrating Moisturizer ($64): Provides intense hydration with lasting effects. ● True Timeout Calming Moisturizer ($64): Helps alleviate sensitivity and redness. ● Radiance Rising Brightening Moisturizer ($64): Brightens dull skin and enhances radiance. ● Rewinder Anti-Aging Moisturizer ($64): Reduces the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. Beyond that as a retailer, Credo Beauty continues to drive the packaging and social standards that are the hallmarks of tomorrow. Every pump and cap in the Credo Skincare collection is comprised of a first-of-its kind PCR resin, including beauty waste packaging collected in Credo Beauty stores nationwide through Pact Collective, the non-profit Credo Beauty co-founded to divert beauty packaging from landfills. ● The Credo pump was created with Pact’s NewMatter material, a mixture of hard-to-recycle material or landfill and ocean-bound plastic. ● The first run of NewMatter pumps eliminated the need for 500 kg of virgin plastic (500 kg of recycled plastic used is equivalent to 11 cubic meters of landfill space or ~2,900 gallons of space!) ● Every 38 pumps eliminate one pound of material going to the landfill or ocean. “The benefit of listening to 10 years of customers' desires and skin concerns compelled us to create this line. Years of data drove the ingredient compositions of these products so that we could exceed our customers’ expectations for efficacy. Our Credo Clean Standard is already rigorous and difficult to attain but we wanted to challenge ourselves with how our own brand could take clean innovation to new heights from full disclosure of fragrance ingredients and packaging innovation to exceeding the minimum requirements to check certain boxes, Credo Skincare raises the bar on what is possible and what can become the future baseline,” says Co-Founder and CEO Annie Jackson. Availability: Credo Skincare will be available for purchase starting September 12, 2024, at all Credo brick and mortar store locations and on www.credobeauty.com. Media Contact: press@credobeauty.com About Credo Beauty: Credo Beauty offers today’s largest clean and sustainably minded beauty assortment in North America, across color, skincare, haircare and fragrance, partnering with over 120 leading brands, such as Westman Atelier, ILIA, OSEA, True Botanicals and LolaVie.
