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

    Coloring of the guy notwithstanding, I have seen price differences for fixtures based on finishes. Usually chrome is the cheapest and then brushed nickel, brass and black are more expensive.

    This one also is priced backwards, so who the fuck knows.

    I have to wonder if they are doing it on purpose.

    After all, it generates a lot of attention for their site.

    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.

          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.

    Is it still blackface if AI does it to AI-generated people? Or is it just good old-fashioned slop?

    And I thought my discovery with their AI gen furniture was bad. Was shopping for a bedframe and found this amongst the mix:

        It would be cool if it were feasible, but I also wanna know exactly what the end product will look like. I’ve seen a few of these generated pics on Wayfair, and outside of cost, what else would they be reducing by cutting out the physical model and people involved? Like won’t the return rate go up and then cost them (significantly) more anyway?

        Oh wait, it is just about line go up.

            I’d much rather have low-quality shots of the actual product than AI generated images that may or may not somewhat resemble the actual product.
