I'd love to know how this works. I entered my own name for the lols, and it returned mostly paintings of the Cape Winelands in South Africa where I grew up, which is pretty creepy.

It's using openai's clip (https://openai.com/blog/clip/) to find the image similar to your query or image. Clip learned to match images to the captions that were paired with them from images on the web. My best guess would be that there were enough pictures from someone with your name (maybe just last name) that it made that association.

I entered mine and it returns a ton of 1800's images of men (apt) with a similar first name and rather different last names. It has a long way to go on this front.

that is crazy. Perhaps your family name is common in that region?
