I feel like I see this comment fairly often these days, but nonetheless, perhaps we need to keep making it - the AI generated image there is so poor, and so off-putting. Does anyone like them? I am turned off whenever I see someone has used one on a post, with very few exceptions.

Is it just me? Why are people using them? I feel like objectively they look like fake garbage, but obviously that must be my subjective biases, because people keep using them.

I don't find the image poor, but somehow I see immediately that it is generated because of the stylistic style. And that simply triggers the 'fake' flag in the back of my head, which has this bad subjective connotation. But objectively I believe it is a very nice picture.

Edit: i looked at it more closely and the way the people are sitting, their direction, is totally unnatural.
