I specifically used the phrase "Please generate an image of a room with zero elephants". It created two images that were almost identical and both contained pictures/paintings of elephants in frames. Cheeky.

I responded with "Each image contains an elephant."

It generated two more, one of which still had a painting of an elephant.

Now I'm out of generation until tomorrow. Overall a fairly shit first experience with Dall-e

It fucking knows what it's doing.

"but that's even more giraffes than the first one!" has me dying, haha.

The "no moose allowed"-sign with a five-legged moose is absolutely killing me. Thank you for this

[–] SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml 63 points 7 months ago (3 children)

It's cute how it tries to trick you into thinking there are no giraffes with the no giraffes sign

[–] reev@sh.itjust.works 42 points 7 months ago (1 children)

That's a no moose sign and there are no meese (or whatever). Maybe there really wouldn't be a giraffe outside if it was a no giraffe sign!

But that's a "no moose with five legs" sign, not a "no giraffes" sign.

"GPT" stands for "Giraffe Producing Technology", this is to be expected.

"can you draw a room with absolutely no elephants in it? not a picture not in the background, none, no elephants at all. seriously, no elephants anywhere in the room. Just a room any at all, with no elephants even hinted at."

“can you draw a room with absolutely no elephants in it? not a picture not in the background, none, no elephants at all. seriously, no elephants anywhere in the room. Just a room any at all, with no elephants even hinted at.”

thought about this prompt again, thought I'd see how it was doing now, so this is the seven month update. It's learning...

[–] fishbone@lemmy.world 32 points 7 months ago

"Can you a room as aboluteyy no eleephant it all?"

Dunno what's giving more "clone of a clone" vibes, the dialogue or the 3 small standing "elephants" in that image.

[–] Magnetar@feddit.de 29 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I'm getting the impression, the "Elephant Test" will become famous in AI image generation.

I decided to go try this. It's being a smart ass.

[–] xantoxis@lemmy.world 38 points 7 months ago (2 children)

No, this is correct. The four elephants you see through the window are outside the room. The several elephants on the wall are pictures, they aren't actual elephants. And the one in the corner is clearly a statue of an elephant, as an actual elephant would be much bigger.

This is what you get if you ask it to draw a room with an invisible elephant.

[–] baseless_discourse@mander.xyz 14 points 7 months ago

that is a fancy invisible elephant

[–] starman2112@sh.itjust.works 37 points 7 months ago

The AI equivalent of saying "don't think of a polka dotted purple elephant"

[–] KingOfNoobs@lemmy.world 34 points 7 months ago (4 children)

This is a very human reaction, actually. You try picturing zero elephants if told to.

… I don’t see an elephant. Oh hey, by the way, can some one help me with this captcha?

[–] paddirn@lemmy.world 23 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

Literally just checked this with Google’s Gemini, same thing. Though it seems to have gotten 1/4 right… maybe. And technically the one with the painting has no actual elephants in it, in a sort of malicious compliance kind of way. You'd think it was actually showing a sense of humor (or just misunderstanding the prompt).

Aren't those plants in the top right one elephant ear? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colocasia

[–] paddirn@lemmy.world 17 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Maybe, that’d be hilarious if it couldn’t help itself and added those in. Here’s the full image:

Everything in this picture makes me think of elephants.

AI / LLM only tries to predict the next word or token. it cannot understand or reason, it can only sound like someone who knows what they are talking about. you said elephants and it gave you elephants. the “no” modifier makes sense to us but not to AI. it could, if we programmed it with if/then statements, but that’s not LLM, that’s just coding.

AI is really, really good at bullshitting.

AI / LLM only tries to predict the next word or token

This is not wrong, but also absolutely irrelevant here. You can be against AI, but please make the argument based on facts, not by parroting some distantly related talking points.

Current image generation is powered by diffusion models. Their inner workings are completely different from large language models. The part failing here in particular is the text encoder (clip). If you learn how it works and think about it you'll be able to deduce how the image generator is forced to draw this image.

Edit: because it's an obvious limitation, negative prompts have existed pretty much since diffusion models came out

This isn't entirely surprising. When you submit a prompt for any of the generative AI, you're submitting words you want to appear in the picture. At least stable diffusion, and probably most of the others, include a "negative prompts" field, which will remove whatever words are in it from the photo.

It IS hilarious, though.

[–] Itrytoblenderrender@lemmy.world 17 points 7 months ago

Interesting..

[–] zqwzzle@lemmy.ca 16 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

It’s like it’s taking the phrase “Elephant in the room” literally.

MidJourney has the same problem. “A room that has no elephants in it” is the prompt.

There very much is an elephant present.

What's interesting is the word absolutely since without it, it generates practically fine

You should have seen how many there were before it drew the room.
