ChatGPT can’t draw a glass of wine full to the brim. Why? And what might it have to do with David Hume and the missing shade of blue?

    Not sure if this is something that progressively got fixed, or something that got fixed with GPT-5, but I got a picture about 80% full then said “can you make it to the brim” and it did it on that second try.

    People really dont understand how chatgpt works, like people genuinely think its a sentient machine thinking and generating an image based on what you ask it to do

    You can't just ask chatgpt how it generated an image, it'll just make up an answer that sounds right instead of actually explaining how it was done

    I wish you and Roger Penrose could have a discussion.
    One of the latest interviews I saw him having with somebody was a total waste of his time.
    Roger does not think that A I, is capable of thinking like humans. And his iconic mind is not going to be around too much longer. I wish some real smart people would start talking to him.

    I finally got the AI to create a full wine glass. I just had to dumb down and think outside the box for how i could instruct the AI to create this. Like id say things like "The red color stuff that is in focus needs to rise up to 4/5ths the way up the picture, make the object that is in focus be occupied with all of this red colored stuff. I also told it to create 10 different versions of my prompts and to be creative in how to interpret what i'm asking. I would find a glass that was fuller than the rest and slowly bread crumb the AI to increment further until it finally gave my like a 9/10ths full wine glass.

    It's possible to make red wine with AI, I once found an AI (I forgot the name) that I tricked into getting a full glass of red wine, I will see if I can find out the name if I sent it to ChatGPT
