Modern haircut inspiration
This "modern haircut inspiration" shows a back-facing head with a completely misplaced and unnaturally rotated ear. The face is entirely evaded. This distortion likely comes from the fact that the AI model was trained predominantly on front-facing portraits so that the tool was used to symmetry and gaze. When prompted for an uncommon perspective (without any explicit frontal cues), however, the AI model generates a less coherent representation of the human head. What emerges is not only a glitch, but also a reflection of the kind of data the model has (and has not) seen.
