I'm so confused. Was this intentional? Did AI backfire and they uploaded the output anyway? Was it malicious compliance?

I was looking at portable induction burner recently and no mater what site I go to, I cant seem to find a picture that isn't photoshop/AI. How am I supposed to see how big the thing is without a real human hand or a banana for scale.

It's gotten so bad. I'm house shopping at the moment, and they're all using AI now. It'll hallucinate the dimensions of things from photo to photo, make up drawers/shelves/fixtures, etc. Madness.

And now they are adding AI decorated rooms, "for your convenience". Ai is like a virus, polluting everything.

The bizarre part is that people are looking at this and thinking "yes this improves these photos" or whatever.

It might make the photos more pleasing to someone who is sexually aroused by looking at photos of rooms in houses.

However, it significantly reduces the value of the photos to someone who's trying to buy a real actual house.
