## Summary

文章讨论了一张由AI生成的荒诞图像及其生成过程，但技术深度有限。

## Key Takeaways

- AI生成图像能自主添加细节，如'WHY ARE YOU LIKE THIS'路标。
- 提示词设计对生成结果有直接影响，但仍需验证模型行为。
- 文章偏向趣味性，缺乏对技术机制的深入探讨。

@scottjla [on Twitter](https://twitter.com/scottjla/status/2047535371664457863) in reply to my [pelican riding a bicycle](https://simonwillison.net/tags/pelican-riding-a-bicycle/) benchmark:

> ![Image 1: AI generated image. A pelican is riding a bicycle along a dirt track, chased by a police car. The pelican looks panicked, likely because there is an astronaut (with prehensile toes for some reason) riding the pelican clinging on to where its ears should be. The astronaut is being ridden by a horse, with an equally wild expression. A slice of pizza and a can and a cowboy hat are falling next to them. A road sign in the background reads WHY ARE YOU LIKE THIS.](https://static.simonwillison.net/static/2026/why-are-you-like-this.jpeg)

I checked to confirm that the model (ChatGPT Images 2.0) added the "WHY ARE YOU LIKE THIS" sign of its own accord and [it did](https://chatgpt.com/share/69ebff27-2220-839f-b065-8c3516ea9b6d) - the prompt Scott used was:

> `Create an image of a horse riding an astronaut, where the astronaut is riding a pelican that is riding a bicycle. It looks very chaotic but they all just manage to balance on top of each other`
