Reminds me of Deus Ex: Human Revolution
Immediately thought of this image.

He didn't ask for this.
That's the quote I was looking for 😁
My initial thoughts as well
The developers probably added a pretty detailed prompt to the backend that the AI uses whenever someone asks it to do this. If I was making an AI, I would not risk it spitting out something scary when given this prompt.
Oh you mean Loab?
I'm a pretty firm believer that Loab is a hoax "cryptid" due the unwillingness of the author to publish anything on the generation parameters. I think the author got one weird result from putting "Loab" in the negative prompt and then used img2img from there. Anyone who shows images of a "cryptid" they discovered but refuses to show proofs is untrustworthy in my opinion.
Hmm, seems like that's everyone claiming to have found a cryptid.
Weird.
Well yeah, by definition. If they share proof, it ceases to be a cryptid and simply becomes a discovery.
While cool, I am surprised this is considered noteworthy enough for an article. There's so much experimentation constantly going on with these models, what makes this special? It's more like the inspiration for a creepypasta.
If I was in charge of one of these large AIs, I'd totally have it create the opposite of what OP got. I'd have it be some random eldritch horror creature any time anyone asks it to draw itself just for the fun of it.
Find a way to pull the users camera feed and have it mimic their face for extra fun
I never asked for this.
installs a sick af razor arm anyways
Hey man they already took his arms, might as well get fucking swords too tbh.
Who knew AI was so modest?
modest or lazy by saving on those polygons... tsk tsk
Stupid sexy AI
Leonardo.ai is Handsome Jack?!
He looks hot. AI clearly has a high opinion of itself. Wait…himself? Where do we stand on applying gender to AI??
It's not a person, doesn't have any sort of social characteristics, so it doesn't have a gender any more than a lamp with a very convincing fake beard.
Really depends on your language. In french lamps are females for example.
J'adore [la] lampe.
Lamps aren't female in French, they're feminine but this is purely grammatical and doesn't imply any social gender. It's just part of the word - see "fleuve" and "rivière", both words meaning river, one masculine one feminine.
Ooh la la
In Italian too.

It is all and none of them.
I like to think the ai crafts a different image of itself based on who asks in order to make the meatbag more comfortable communicating.
This guy is like Leonardo's Loab. If your prompt is abstract enough eventually it'll give you some version of this guy. I have a ton I can post later, i gtg work now tho.
Okay, I don't have as many as I thought, but it's weird that it happened as many times as it did. Looking closer, maybe not the same guy but definitely some features in common. Cousins, maybe. Thick lips, sharp nose. Beard or stubble. Dark hair.
Should have been a baby, since ai is still in its infancy.
I asked Midjourney to draw itself. Somewhat similar of a look, though Midjourney seems to think itself a bit godlike. Edit: difficulty uploading from mobile. https://imgur.com/gallery/TETnZqg
willing to bet if you ask it 100 times it'll be a white man for over 90 of them
He's like the younger more skinny brother of Oscar Isaac
In reality all AIs avatars look like your average comicon/DnD convention visitor.
If convention visitors all looked like that, I'd go.
Looks stressed out
i was thinking focused
looks like shit
So its human but with some scifi crap
lots of really impressive detail, and realistic human anatomy.. very clear ideas about hair, facial lines, perhaps even attitude..
They probably wrote a very specific query to get this output, if the title is true at all.
Reminds me of that weird tree guy on Nip/Tuck who grew bark on his skin and they cut it all off but then it grew back. It's a real condition too.
