I'm not saying the AI painting is that bad, those album covers are a bit of an exaggeration. But as subtle as it is, those mistakes went unnoticed by the AI, and they're noticeable to me.
Either that or you're just pretending to see what isn't there so you can sound arty. Or maybe you've just convinced yourself you're seeing something just cause you know how the painting was made.
