If people had to pay royalties for the source images used to train these AIs, the problem would just take care of itself

Paying for 100,000s of stock photos just to make a single cosmic horror that slightly resembles human food.

Love to see the slow realization that AI art is mostly useful for hucksters to promise cost reductions and then the thing doesn't actually work well enough so you end up with a PR disaster, a worse product, etc.
It serves a purpose for having an excuse for layoffs and that's about it.
My last boss used AI art stuff to generate logos and branding stuff. It looked terrible. They saw no problem with it even though there were people that would literally make that stuff for free for us. So I guess that's another customer type.
An Instacart spokesperson said generative AI is new, and the company continuously works to improve its product. "When we receive reports of AI-generated content that does not deliver a high-quality consumer experience, our team reviews the content and may remove it," they said in a comment given after publication
So they pushed out these wacky images and took them down when people started to make fun of them, hard to believe they didn't notice, guess they didn't care as long as it was cheaper than paying for stock images
Is this the first signs of AI poisoning or can the machines really not generate a hot dog yet
