One interesting coincidence:
One thing which present-day AI image generators have a lot of trouble with is human hands. They're great at faces and bodies, and know how to pose a body so that it's sitting on a chair or riding a horse in a realistic way, but they suck at hands and fingers. It's a reasonably good tell.
In the 1973 film Westworld, the hands were the one reliable way to tell the robots from humans. "They haven't figured out the hands yet," said John to Peter. And we see a closeup of one of the gunslingers' hands, showing that the skin is all wrong, rubbery at the knuckles, etc.
In the current Westworld TV series, Anthony Hopkins' fictional character, Dr. Robert Ford made a nod to this when speaking to a colleague about the parks' first generation robotic hosts. "They repeated themselves, broke down constantly. A simple handshake would give them away."
I find that interesting. Here are some of the ways in which CrAIyon interprets "A human hand, holding a pencil."

Just noting that it's been one of the hardest things for AI image generators to get right. And yes, I deliberately chose CrAIyon over CoPilot to generate those, as CraAIyon is worse at it.
Aaaaaanyway.... You may have seen a photo of this room before, but you've probably never seen the full-color documentary about it.
If you watch only one YouTube video today, watch something with cats in it. But if you watch TWO YouTube videos, watch this one:
