That vibes with the images from what I saw with Dall-E. The rendering/styling was superb, however, the logic and scene understanding were toddler-like.

Still impressive, but if you had a picture with dogs sometimes a dog head would be pasted on top at the wrong angle. Confabulation is a great term for it IMHO.

That's basically right, AI of the type we're discussing has high technical ability like ability to draw and make grammatically correct sentences, without understanding the higher level structure of what it's doing. A bit like an enthusiastic teenager.

But I can't see how people aren't impressed, we couldn't do this a few years ago, and surely we will build on top of this in coming years.
