The name ”Cloud” can make certain AI programs bug. Considering that ”cloud” is cloud in English, but it is also the name of one of the characters in Final Fantasy.

That’s how the AI designed the Cloud from Final Fantasy 7, worse than that, you can’t say that the system was wrong, right?

In short, image generators are like a high-tech version of asking ”What image comes to mind when you hear the words…”, from which the program searches the internet for connections between those words and images, it tries to find commonalities between the examples and then try to use those similarities as building blocks to create a new image. So it gave this very funny result.

People managed to completely bug the program precisely because of the name ”Cloud”, so this fusion of the character with a cloud. Check out a second result below:

”Looks more like a Chocobo cloud to me.”
