.. So you're saying they have a large sample of data to pull from and give a recipe they believe will work based on that data? I don't like this analogy..

I am going to put one of my earlier comments that is fairly relevant

Ah yes, because when humans do art we never add little touches that make it our own even if we are closely following the source material. Meanwhile AI only closely follows its data

Take for example this redraw of this meme:

Vs the original:

While they appear similar you can clearly see where they differ, with the end result being much better vs if they had copied the original more faithfully. Those changes were all intentionally done, based on the artists experiences biases and even mood. When AI makes changes it does not have the same intentions because it does not have artistic intent.

Art is a foundational way of human communication. AI slop is not that, as it mimics art while losing out on all but the most superficial of its communication.

I would argue that cooking is similar.

And again AI recipes do not work as they take what word is most likely to be next, not what would actually work.
