It can do faces quite well on second passes but struggles hard with hands.

Corporate photography tends to be uncanny and creepy to begin with, so using an AI to generate it made it even more so.

I totally didn’t just spend 30 minutes generating corporate stock photos and laughing at the creepy results. 😅
