Steve Buscemi -> Parting Glances -> AIDS -> monkeys ???

This sounds a lot like the results you get from CLIP interrogation. Maybe they just use that and made another online service for it?

It is actually based on a different approach, it uses an image-captioning model finetuned on image-prompt pairs

CLIP Interrogator uses BLIP, an image captioning model, as well as trying a bunch of prompts with CLIP.

Is the code for this one available?

Ah yes, this model treats this purely as image captioning. The model isn't open source yet.

Can you clarify whether or not Steve Buscemi actually took the photo?

This one also had me rolling, haha. Thank you, too. <3 :))))

Pictures with zoom lenses, obviously :D

This is the thing about AI that I find simultaneously wonderful and terrifying. Something to do with me as a human, noticing a hilarious detail amidst a fathomless ocean. It affirms my humanity but the backdrop is dizzying randomness.

How do you do fellow humans?

Maybe it was trained on a image set of politicians. I put in a image Dr. Evil doing air quotes and it came up with "FirstName LastName from FirstName LastName in star trek the next generation ( 2005 ) ( 2 0 1 9 )".

FirstName LastName being the name of a politician.

His style is just so beautifully unique

A photo taken in the style Steve Buscemi would have if he were a photographer.

I'm dying laughing right now, this is phenomenal comedy gold.

Thank you.

I generated a bunch of variations and eventually got something kinda close to your source, but it seems pretty hit or miss: https://i.pica.so/b014bb2f-ca05-499a-a4da-1d178f49bb06.jpg https://i.pica.so/5ee6e122-c2a4-44a7-8ae9-ecec24da0246.jpg
