If AI image generators are so smart, why do they struggle to write and count?
There’s a lot of buzz about generative AI tools – especially ones that can quickly create jaw-dropping images from a text prompt. But there are limitations and flaws, Professor Seyedali Mirjalili from Torrens University notes… especially when hands are involved.
