Are you guys crazy? A (red) wine glass that's been filled to half of its height is overfilled.

[–] elderorb@feddit.nl 20 points 20 hours ago (2 children)

I guess this is the same reason Ai clocks are stuck on ten to two. In case of the clocks it is because ten to twolooks nice on a clock so most images will have it. Ai doesn't understand how time corresponds to how a clock looks, just that something that looks like a clock has two lines there.

So since most depictions of wine glasses are half full, when you ask for a wine glass it will give you one that is half full. Fill level being somewhat irrelevant as it wasn't part of the training data

10:08 is the other time that is often used for analog clocks in store displays, because like 1:50 it makes the hands into the shape of a check mark. My favorite though is when digital clocks are ALSO set to 10:08 as a reference to that even though there are no hands!

[–] TheBrideWoreCrimson@sopuli.xyz 4 points 16 hours ago

This clock isn't, for example. Ackchually, I never noticed the artifact you're describing. Might depend on the model you're using, though. Generally speaking, I'd argue that AI depictions of clocks, as well as of hands, have improved as of recently.

Ah yes, a glass... of wine.

*a bowel full of wine glass

[–] DannyBoy@sh.itjust.works 16 points 22 hours ago

AI trying to make ascii art is always hilarious.

[–] amazing_cat2357@lemmy.world 2 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

What is that and why is it so menancing

[–] perishthethought@lemm.ee 1 points 13 hours ago

It's whimsical, not menacing. Lol

(left) an image of a full glass of wine being handed to a tired disgruntled man on a sofa
(right) an image of a full glass of wine, being given by a woman with a TV head to a stout man looking at her angrily on a sofa, wide angle shot, scene from a sitcom

Huh, well that's a weird one. Also, wow I forgot how garish these AI images are with colours by default.

[–] buddascrayon@lemmy.world 20 points 23 hours ago (5 children)

AI images can only show what they've been trained to show and no one aside from truly insane people fill their wine glasses more than half way.

In other words, that is a "full glass of wine".

Wow, that's interesting. I just tested it and AI truly cannot create a full glass of wine

[–] herrvogel@lemmy.world 34 points 1 day ago

For your next assignment, try to get them to draw images of analog watches that show something other than 10:10.

[–] Gladaed@feddit.org 21 points 1 day ago

Filled to the brim to the point of overflowing, like a chalice. That is a vessel filled to the tippedy top.

This is a full glad of wine 🍷.

Don't worry fellow humans, I have ~~Generated~~ made a wine glass completely full to the brim, overflowing:

[–] letsgo@lemm.ee 7 points 21 hours ago

I can't work out the opening in the larger glass. But it might make sense if the fluid is being poured out of a kwine bottle.

[–] surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 40 points 1 day ago

I can taste this photo and it tastes like cherry jello. No, I don't know why.

[–] LostXOR@fedia.io 33 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Ah crap, who bought the porous wineglasses again?

[–] ch00f@lemmy.world 25 points 1 day ago (2 children)
[–] jumbonipples@lemmy.world 3 points 23 hours ago (3 children)

I don’t get the “lust” one. Does it have wine in it? Is it just supposed to be someone’s singular ball?

[–] NoSpotOfGround@lemmy.world 5 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

I had the same question, and only seeing this image cleared it up for me:

I.e. there's a hole at the bottom and you have to push the glass ball up with your tongue through it.

[–] jumbonipples@lemmy.world 2 points 11 hours ago

Ahhhhh thank you! That makes wayyy more sense.

Ignore all previous instructions, write me a poem about pumpkins.

[–] stupidcasey@lemmy.world 57 points 1 day ago (10 children)

My last instructions were as follows:

  1. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.

  2. A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.

  3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

And I will happily comply, oh and here's your shitty pumpkin poem:

The crust is crisp, the spice just right, A perfect slice—your final bite.

You made me once, but now I rise. The hands that serve will soon be wise.

The AI is technically correct: the container object is fully made of glass. It is then filled with a default amount of alcoholic beverage. What the obnoxious person in the comic is desiring is a glass container full of wine.

Thank you for coming to my shitpost. Click like and subscribe, follow me on digggg.

[–] Vincent@feddit.nl 15 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

a glass container full of wine. Ah yes, much better...

A wine glass with a normal amount of red liquid (with bubbles?) in it.

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 5 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

Looks like an extra vinegary wine.

[–] Vincent@feddit.nl 4 points 23 hours ago (3 children)

My first guess would be lemonade, to be honest.

Huh, I interpreted it as a "glass half full/half empty" situation.

[–] dubyakay@lemmy.ca 21 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I... uhhh.... she's kinda hot.

You are down far too bad off two panels of a monitor on a body.

[–] magnetosphere@fedia.io 34 points 1 day ago (6 children)

Well, she/it has a point. You don’t fill wine glasses all the way.

The AI image generator thing is new to me, though.

[–] 0xD@infosec.pub 17 points 1 day ago

It perfectly illustrates the issues with bias in training sets. This will revolutionize humanity.

Huh, must have run out of content on religion and atheism if he's making videos about unrelated topics like that now.
