My takes on AI art flipped after my cousin's wedding photos got mangled
I spent 6 months in 2023 arguing AI tools were fine for quick edits, then my cousin paid $300 for a 'restored' family photo that came back with 6 fingers on my grandma, and that convinced me the confidence in those takes was the real problem, so has anyone else seen a bad AI output that made them reverse their stance?

Honestly the six fingers on grandma is sending me, like the AI decided your family tree needed a bonus branch. But for real, the part about "the confidence was the real problem" hits hard because that was me too. I was out here telling everyone AI edits were fine for months, then my buddy's passport photo got "cleaned up" and suddenly he had no ears. Nothing humbles you faster than watching a robot turn a beloved family memory into a creepypasta. The tools can do some cool stuff but the way people talk about them like they never mess up is what got us both.
