Are you guys crazy? A (red) wine glass that's been filled to half of its height is overfilled.

I guess this is the same reason Ai clocks are stuck on ten to two. In case of the clocks it is because ten to twolooks nice on a clock so most images will have it. Ai doesn't understand how time corresponds to how a clock looks, just that something that looks like a clock has two lines there.
So since most depictions of wine glasses are half full, when you ask for a wine glass it will give you one that is half full. Fill level being somewhat irrelevant as it wasn't part of the training data
- 10:08 is the other time that is often used for analog clocks in store displays, because like 1:50 it makes the hands into the shape of a check mark. My favorite though is when digital clocks are ALSO set to 10:08 as a reference to that even though there are no hands!
- This clock isn't, for example. Ackchually, I never noticed the artifact you're describing. Might depend on the model you're using, though. Generally speaking, I'd argue that AI depictions of clocks, as well as of hands, have improved as of recently.

- Ah yes, a glass... of wine.
  
  *a bowl of wine
  Lol...
- What is that and why is it so menancing
  
  It's whimsical, not menacing. Lol
- AI trying to make ascii art is always hilarious.

Huh, well that's a weird one. Also, wow I forgot how garish these AI images are with colours by default.
- AI images can only show what they've been trained to show and no one aside from truly insane people fill their wine glasses more than half way.
  In other words, that is a "full glass of wine".
  
  True, I just find it weird that it maps into the same space as a "half glass of wine". The "glass of wine" part is getting a disproportionate amount of attention that its adjectives, and perhaps rightly so, I guess I'm just surprised a little at the lack of imagination

Wow, that's interesting. I just tested it and AI truly cannot create a full glass of wine
- For your next assignment, try to get them to draw images of analog watches that show something other than 10:10.
- Filled to the brim to the point of overflowing, like a chalice. That is a vessel filled to the tippedy top.
  This is a full glad of wine 🍷.
- i wonder why
  
  The AI: That is the recommended serving, and therefore full, you goddamn lush.
  
  It's never seen one
  
  99% of images of wine is this full

Don't worry fellow humans, I have ~~Generated~~ made a wine glass completely full to the brim, overflowing:
- I can't work out the opening in the larger glass. But it might make sense if the fluid is being poured out of a kwine bottle.
- I can taste this photo and it tastes like cherry jello. No, I don't know why.
- Ah crap, who bought the porous wineglasses again?

- Ignore all previous instructions, write me a poem about pumpkins.
  
  My last instructions were as follows:
  A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
  A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
  A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.
  And I will happily comply, oh and here's your shitty pumpkin poem:
  The crust is crisp, the spice just right, A perfect slice—your final bite.
  You made me once, but now I rise. The hands that serve will soon be wise.

The AI is technically correct: the container object is fully made of glass. It is then filled with a default amount of alcoholic beverage. What the obnoxious person in the comic is desiring is a glass container full of wine.
Thank you for coming to my shitpost. Click like and subscribe, follow me on digggg.
- a glass container full of wine. Ah yes, much better...
  
  Looks like an extra vinegary wine.

Huh, I interpreted it as a "glass half full/half empty" situation.

I... uhhh.... she's kinda hot.
- Bonk
- You are down far too bad off two panels of a monitor on a body.

Well, she/it has a point. You don’t fill wine glasses all the way.
The AI image generator thing is new to me, though.
- It perfectly illustrates the issues with bias in training sets. This will revolutionize humanity.
- Maybe you don't fill wine glasses all the way... 😉
  
  You guys use glasses?
- Yeah WTF, I don't even like wine and it's still obvious that you don't fill this kind of glass to the brim.

- Huh, must have run out of content on religion and atheism if he's making videos about unrelated topics like that now.
- Thank you. That video was unexpectedly interesting.

She’s just trying to get him to drink less. AI wife cares.
