StylisticBias (arXiv:2606.20527) finds that a small set of human visual cues accounts for the majority of social biases multimodal LLMs exhibit in consequential settings. The useful implication: targeted interventions on those few cues could mitigate bias more efficiently than broad debiasing. If you deploy MLLMs where fairness matters, this says the high-leverage fix is narrow, not a wholesale retraining effort.
