Spot the Difference (and the Hallucination) in this Photo Hunt
Someone asked ChatGPT to generate a "spot the difference" image. The result was themed on Halloween, and the results are spooky (i.e., just so good!). From the extra bubble in the witch's cauldron to a vanishing bone, the AI indeed delivers at five clear differences. But the real fun begins when one digs deeper after having found those five major differences, and one may even uncover up to 15 changes (most of them subtle). Are these intentional or just generative noise? That's perhaps part of the magic, as AI doesn't really "decide" it but rather just creates, and sometimes it overachieves in wonderfully weird ways...
