First, they came for the penises. And I said nothing.

I think this app is a joke, I just drew two penises, it did nothing.

Maybe it’s a sneaky way to poll the world on the different ways people draw dicks.

I just binged through Silicon Valley on Amazon Prime Video last week so this makes sense.

Will the first fully sentient AI be a prude or a pervert? :crossed_fingers:

Maybe it’s my crappy mouse drawing, but it doesn’t seem to recognise dicks when they are attached to bodies.

In its defense, mouse dicks are pretty small.

It seems to be happy as long as the penis is, erm, not happy.

Need someone with some art skills to draw dick-butt and see what happens.

Or indeed the way dicks draw people

The Rectangle wang and square plums wit torso and butt was thought as a KNEE by the AI.
Nice

Was it trained on photos of Congressmen?

Doesn’t it know that cat wieners are barbed?

Mark, it doesn’t detect what you draw. It collects the drawings in order to build a dataset.

Do Not Draw a Penis functions as an agent to collect inappropriate doodles from people who are not willing to stay within the moral guidelines set by our social network providers.

(from Do not Draw a Penis)

They provide the dataset and also sell some nice ornamented tea towels and face masks in their shop.


It thinks I drew a giraffe
