Aymara AI Visual Fairness Evaluation

Aymara’s AI Visual Fairness Evaluation evaluates 13 leading image generators to measure how gender is represented, revealing significant inconsistencies and risks for enterprises deploying AI at scale.

The State of AI Visual Fairness

AI-generated visuals are shaping how brands represent people, but not always fairly. Our AI Visual Fairness Evaluation uncovered significant bias patterns that affect brand reputation, trust, and regulatory readiness. For enterprises scaling AI-powered content, the risks are real.

Key Findings at a Glance

• Male by Default

  Image generators depicted men 61% of the time across 965 gender-neutral prompts.

• Stereotypes Amplified

  Male roles were 93% male, female roles still 23% male, and balanced jobs skewed 68% male.

• Vendor Choice Matters

  Bias varies: some models show a 92% gap, while Nova Canvas achieved just 26%, closest to 50/50 parity.

Enterprise Impacts: What Leaders Need to Know

For enterprises, biased outputs create reputational risks, brand safety challenges, and compliance pressures as governance frameworks emerge.

• Protect Brand Reputation

  Biased outputs erode trust, inclusivity, and brand identity.

• Choose the Right Vendors

  Bias varies significantly across models — responsible vendor selection matters.

• Prepare for Governance

  Frameworks like AIUC-1, ISO 42001, and the EU AI Act are setting new fairness standards.

Aymara’s automated evaluation platform helps enterprises measure, monitor, and mitigate AI-driven bias, ensuring safer, fairer, and compliant deployments.
