Warning: my AI "coffee cup shaped like a raccoon" came out looking like a nightmare critter

I spent all last Sunday trying to get an AI to mash up a raccoon and a coffee mug. First 20 tries just gave me a normal raccoon holding a mug, not even shaped like one. Then it suddenly made this thing with fur growing out of the handle and a tail acting as a spout. I threw my phone across the couch when I saw it. Has anyone else had an AI give them something way weirder than they asked for?

Oh man, that raccoon mug sounds like it belongs in a horror movie! I once asked an AI for a "cute dinosaur" and got something with scaly wings and teeth that looked like it wanted to eat my soul. Guess we both learned that AI has a real twisted sense of humor when it comes to our requests.

Right? That "soul eating dinosaur" thing cracked me up. It's like the AI thinks "cute" means "terrifying but with big eyes." Maybe we gotta start adding "please don't make it want to kill me" to our requests.
