LLMs are Large Language Models and generate text, not images.
(ok, LLMs can't count either but still)
I was lazy the other day and I asked gemini to set an alarm for me, then asked how long it was until that alarm. Not even fucking close to the right amount of time. I figured it would be smart enough to just subtract for me..
Should have said 8 hours and 2 mins... Nope, just made up a time
Image generators are reverse llms, tbf. Steve Mould has a good explanation of it.
well, ish. llms have a vector space of words, image generators of features. they use a second model to associate words with features. Steve's explanation is a great intro but for a deep dive i recommend Self-Cannibalizing AI from 37C3.
Right but as I said in the other thread as well, what do you think is handling the text part of text-to-image creation tools?
April of '74? Did they predict the future or is the issue date just another gag? I know they recently started printing the magazine again, so I truly am not sure if this is a new one or an old one...
'shopped art and cover text. the original cover art was the finger, though.. just not fingers
Yes was going to say it would have had to have been designed by generative AI to have five fingers and a thumb. LOL
Pasting my comment from the other post of this addressing OP:
What is this from? Did you print this? Why would you leave the og price and date tho? And no context? C’mon now this is an interesting story. But also, not something actually made by MAD Magazine… unless you work there? For those who don’t know what this is referencing:

And as far as I can tell OPs image is not an actual MAD cover.
This eddition of MAID magazine hits different.
TIL the MAD magazine is still around
I could have sworn they went belly up years ago
Considering they're reprinting old stuff with only some new stuff in there, it doesn't seem like they're doing too hot
Ok wait what the fuck is the background to this photo? A circular box fan, the midsection of a child, and an N64 controller?
I think that's a Chucky doll?
Ooh good eye
That's looks more like they want to
