If anyone trains a model on https://simonwillison.net/tags/pelican-riding-a-bicycle/ they're going to get some VERY weird looking pelicans.

Why would they train on that? Why not just hire someone to make a few examples.

I look forward to them trying. I'll know when the pelican riding a bicycle is good but the ocelot riding a skateboard sucks.

But they could just train on an assortment of animals and vehicles. It's the kind of relatively narrow domain where NNs could reasonably interpolate.

The idea that an AI lab would pay a small army of human artists to create training data for $animal on $transport just to cheat on my stupid benchmark delights me.

When you're spending trillions on capex, paying a couple of people to make some doodles in SVGs would not be a big expense.

The embarrassment of getting caught doing that would be expensive.
