You can't get them to share the trenchcoat. Nothing like that occurred in any training set, and the AIs do not understand spatial relationships between objects ("X is on top of Y, inside Z") so you cannot describe how to arrange the things it does know about in the scene. Dall-E won't do it. Midjourney won't do it. Stable Diffusion won't do it.
Eventually, enough images will be seeded into the training sets for this to stop being a useful test. But right now, it gives one a fascinating window on what happens when you try to extrapolate outside the cloud of thingspace described by the training data, rather than just interpolating within it.
Say it plain and simple. No one wants to read your train of thought.
> Then lets make sure that domestic political groups can't do this through facebook, instagram and reddit.
Except that in one case, it's a foreign actor interfering with the domestic political process, and in the other it's a domestic actor arguably exercising their first amendment rights.
This is terrible, but its also karma.
Some background for the discussion:
- Germany has a different take on freedom of speech from the US. There are things that you cannot say (holocaust denial, inciting racial violence). We can argue about this, but it's deeply ingrained in the legal system and unrealistic to change
- Germany has a special law regulating responsibilities and content moderation in social media (NetzDG, think section 230 but wider). This law - among other things - mandates content moderation and cooperation with law enforcement
- A key point in the debate surrounding Telegram is the question of whether or not it is a "platform", that is an open social network. Telegram argues that it's a messenger, but in practice, there are many open and public groups used for public debates. So Germany argues that it should be regulated in accordance with the NetzDG, which Telegram denies.
- Recently, there have been a number of death threats and criminal conspiracies which were orchestrated via Telegram; on top, a huge chunk of covid deniers and co are active in this space.
- Telegram so far has not cooperated at all (in contrast with other social platforms, even TikTok).
So in essence, this is currently a battle about the German government saying: Look here, you got a bunch of criminals and terrorists (literally, with weapons) on your platform, you need to do something about it.

These models have a tendency to move towards the average, especially if unprompted. As we see here, sometimes even if prompted otherwise.
They just have to get better or need a more precise interface like the —no :). We also couldn't have "a man crawling" before and now we can: https://i.imgur.com/ycVpk3i.jpeg
