I can’t understand why the GP comment is flagged. If you can look past all the “culture war” stuff, this is pointing out some of the limits of algorithmic creativity.

It does not do well generating instances with features that are not well represented in the training dataset.

Compare this to human creativity. I suspect that fulfilling GPs request would be almost trivial for a human professional artist.

To be clear this is an amazing achievement, a creative use of the technology, and a positive contribution to the world. Pointing out limitations (i.e. areas with potential for future innovation) does not diminish it.

That's because humans have also seen a lot of human beings with diverse skin tones. If we had only seen anime our whole life it would be much more difficult for us to conceive of also. With more compute, we will eventually be able to make bigger models with more knowledge of the world that will also be able to overcome this.

I think that is correct, but also a much much easier said than done when it comes to the implementation.
