Web crawling. (https://arxiv.org/pdf/2103.00020.pdf 2.2) &amp;gt; Are there people out there spending thousands of hours just tagging or writing descriptions of training images? &amp;quot;Yes&amp;quot;, Google Image Search, Wikipedia captions, Danbooru are all that in some sense. The biases should be obvious if you think about it for a minute and CLIP has even more biases since they removed all kinds of NSFW content, etc. &amp;gt; And does DALL·E just receive the image as-is with its description, or does it get more info (e.g. &amp;quot;this part of the…&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/2203.13131/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.

You can easily pass the &amp;#x27;look good to an uniformed observer&amp;#x27; test with human faces. Remember, faces were something GANs were doing near-flawlessly back as far as ProGAN all the way back in the dark ages of late 2017. (Then StyleGAN did non-photograph faces, like anime - see my ThisWaifuDoesNotExist for a demo of that.) Doing them as part of a larger composition, where the face is a small part of the images and may vary much more than in closeup centered portraits, is harder, but take a look at how Facebook&amp;#x27;s DALL-E rival Make-A-Scene does it…&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/2203.13131/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.

This is why I went so far as to make a hand-specific dataset (&amp;quot;PALM&amp;quot; https://www.gwern.net/Crops#palm which of course now everyone is going to confuse with &amp;#x27;PaLM&amp;#x27;...). Hands are just way too variable to learn easily. My dataset is a start, but it may benefit from focused training, the way Facebook&amp;#x27;s new Make-A-Scene https://arxiv.org/abs/2203.13131#facebook (not DALL-E 2 quality but not far from it) has focused losses on faces.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/2203.13131/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.
