reminds me of this Key and Peele skit
AI image generation suffers from this more generally. You can generate pictures of pelicans, sure. Newer models clearly generate images with more pelican-ness than before. But all of it is still uglier than sin. Drawing things accurately is one thing, making results that someone might actually want to use (without embarrassing themselves) is something else.
As for conventional diffusion-model stuff, I happen to think there are some pieces of AI art that still look really good even knowing they're AI.
...which.. hmm I dunno if they are same or not
That said, I think this would correlate relatively little with general programming ability. They're not unrelated, of course, but being able to generate code that paints an accurate + esthetically pleasing image is quite different from generating code that achieves a non-spatial goal.
