At a small restaurant in Tennessee, USA.

I don’t like that they asked an LLM to graphic design the entire menu, but why in the name of robot jesus did they look at the result and say “great. Love it. Print 100 copies.”

The food pictures made me physically ill. They’re really upsetting! I told the Waitress, who agreed that the pics were awful, and the manager/owner(?) who didn’t seem to care.

There are LLM inconsistencies all over, too, like icons changing from page to page.

    and the manager/owner(?) who didn’t seem to care.

    The owner. That’s the one who did it I bet anything. This is typical owner-type psychopathy. A manager would want customers at least. An owner thinks the money spawns in their bank account because they’re “good at runnin buisness.”

    And not a single one of these pieces of shit ever admits to generating it. Its always “Oh uh is it AI though? Looks pretty real. How can you tell it’s AI? I’ll take your for it but I don’t see what the big deal is. It’s the future though so we might as well get used to it.”

    Come on “AI artists” and “prompt engineers”. Why don’t you take credit for your “legitimate” work?

    I’m in Kenya at the moment and it seems nearly all restaurant menus are made with AI. It’s awful and I keep asking if the food is real as the photos aren’t.

    Forget the visuals for a second and tell me how $17 for an omelette is anywhere near okay.

    I could get generating the layout, but the whole point of the pictures is that I want to see what your version of this dish looks like

    What, do you not flower cookie cutter your eggs and put stitch patterns on your pancakes? That’s how you know it’s made with love.

    this is the fastest and cheapest way possible, and most people do not care. until any of these variable changes, ai slop stays.

      I feel people care. Maybe not because they are AI generated, exactly. But how many Karens are going to get their unstitched pancakes and complain? The pictures are there to show you what you are getting, that’s it. And where I understand that people stretch the concept of “pictures of the food” - if the image is greatly different than the product you get… people don’t like that.
