20+ Hilarious AI Fails and Mishaps That’ll Keep You On Your Toes

AI is an incredible tool that can dream up any scene that you so wish. From an image as simple as an apple to something as niche as a mouse and a cat having a tea party, AI can visualize it for you if you can dream it. As technology continues to progress, the visualizations look more and more accurate. However, in the end, AI is still artificial intelligence (with an emphasis on the artificial)! It still makes many mistakes and sometimes misunderstands what we really want it to perform.

If the roles were reversed, lobsters would be fishing for their nightly dinner. This colorful depiction of a lobster fishing on a boat is a clever example of a silly role reversal.

Sporting events can truly bring out the best and worst in people. Sports fans love to cheer, scream, and react to every surprising event that unfolds live before their eyes. Sometimes fans have a debatably unhealthy obsession with their favorite teams, closely following every disheartening loss and joyful win. Oftentimes these dedicated fans are referred to as “superfans.” When AI was prompted to create an image of a basketball superfan, the result was a little more heroic than expected.

Sometimes, AI just creates something so bizarre that there isn’t even a human explanation for the crazy generations that sometimes come about.

AI has the ability to create either exactly what the user wants it to or something completely different.
