What is up with the weird soft look that so many AI images have?

It’s probably trained on a fuckton of Thomas Kinkade paintings, just statistically, since his output was so huge. He also had that kind of lighting going on, so it wouldn’t surprise me if that’s just baked into AI image generation now.

There’s a good couple of episodes from Behind the Bastards about him, if you’re into that sort of thing.
