      Have to play devil’s advocate here. I totally agree that naming your chatbot Aryan is a bit of a giveaway, but does it say that exactly anywhere? All I can see is Arya. That is a legitimate name, even more popular since Game of Thrones. This crap is bad enough without making false claims about it. We’d be quick enough to call the other side out when they made a false claim. We shouldn’t adopt their practices. We’re supposed to be better than that.

          Thanks - and it’s no doubt intended and they might has well named it Fuhrer, but we need to stay better than them.

        They do have a separate Hitler character profile, and one of the image generation profiles is named “Austrian Painter”

        The name is solely Arya. However there’s more than enough context here to associate it with Aryan. Just like “Austrian Painter” (that @neoman4426@fedia.io mentioned) clearly refers to Hitler instead of, say, Klimt or Kokoschka.
