    I'm not a defender of AI slop - I will always call it for what it is. But I have some questions:

    Is the "monocle" one really a wtf? It seem to found an image of a monocle despite the text description that goes with it being wrong. Would that not be to this AI's credit?

    And the bear one; as much as I'm not a fan of Bing, "bear sizes" is a very vague search. That said, the height it gives seems small, though it will vary by the type of bear, so maybe it was trying to give the average standing height between something like a black bear (small) and something like a grizzly (large.)

    The last one feels like it could have been a human error, where they copied an AI's text into what looks like a social media post?

    I think you missed Bing is suggesting related searches like "How do I measure my bear?", which I find extremely hilarious for some reason.

    If you can't measure your bear, how can you be sure it gets the bear necessities?

    The AI part of it is the text description, given by an image classifier. I don't recall which site this was (it was pretty long ago that I submitted this), but my guess is that the search results are probably governed by something other than the classifier output, which is what resulted in getting the monocle despite what the text says.

    "How do I measure my bear?" isn't an unreasonable question for a collector of teddy bears. It may well be more common than people wanting to know the size of live bears. I'd guess that there are certain common sizes of teddy bears, and random sizes are less usual, so "bear sizes" could well be interpreted as "what sizes are teddy bears commonly made in?" - and "how do I measure my (teddy) bear?" would be a sensible follow up. Of course, it does seem a bit odd to mix both interpretations of the question together.

    Yes, that would be an unbearable state of affairs.

    "How do I measure my bear?" sounds like a euphemism for I don't want to know what...

  • (nodebb) in reply to Álvaro González

    In their defense, it took me a couple minutes to notice it. Someone else here suggested recently that submitters need to do a much better job of identifying small WTFs in large screenshots.

    I think it's also a Cognitive Distortion to feel compelled to choose between the Cognitive Distortion that is thinking AI is just slop and the Cognitive Distortion that is thinking AI is the onset of the end of days...

  • Hmmmm 🤨 (unregistered) in reply to Hmmmm 🤨

    Cognitive Distortions are well-known issues (not necessarily bugs) with human minds.

    I can totally see the bird, though it seems to be taking off, not perched.

  • (nodebb)

    It's an invisible bird, wearing a monocle.

    Of course it is invisible, because birds aren't real.
