Unfortunately, I can still never look at these blog posts for more than a few seconds without becoming disturbed. Any time an animal (human or otherwise) is included in the image, it's terrifying--especially the hands/hooves/paws. Granted, I'm more phobic of monstrosities than the average person, but still. The technology has some distance to cross before I can call its output beautiful.

...Never? I fail to imagine somebody finding the mouse in VR[1], the sneezing fennec[2], or the programming sloth[3] viscerally disturbing.

By "never", I'm referring to the blog posts that have many images. Some images are OK. These are mostly OK. The mouse does have too many toes on one paw, but that's not too bad. The sloth also has uneven-sized claws in a way that seems plausible but unlikely. Also not too bad. So, my "any time" may be literally disproven by the existence of the above images, but these are exceptions in my experience.
