I've scrolled through dozens of these new OpenAI images this morning and I've yet to find a single one where the eyes are pointing in the right direction

Look closely at any ensemble shot of characters supposedly interacting with each other and they're either staring creepily at the camera or have thousand-yard stares

I suspect they're focussing on Anime style right now because it makes it easier to get away with closed eyes or directionless black dots

Example: What is "Distracted guy" looking at here? It sure ain't the girl in red. Also why does he look pissed off?

It might just be bad prompting, but it's a pretty consistent pattern across all these images.

@nicklockwood characters in the training data are biased toward emotional focal points, like you'd expect in real life. Unfortunately, this meme depends on breaking that rule. Tried multiple prompts **CRITICAL PRIORITY** blah, with no effect. The ability to draw is entangled with that pattern.

@nicklockwood I find it interesting that the AI decided to make the woman in the red dress look back, like she’s doing this deliberately
