A TIKTOK account dedicated to asking artificial intelligence disturbing questions revealed what DALL-E AI thinks the last selfie on Earth would look like.
Aptly named “Robot Overloards” the TikTok account promises “daily disturbing Ai generated images”.

The TikTok account didn’t fail on its promise when it asked the DALL-E mini AI image generator to show what “the last selfie ever taken” will look like.
Several images were produced and they’re not for the faint-hearted.
Each AI-generated image shows apocalyptic scenes.
They all include mutilated humans holding phones as chaos ensues around them.
In June 2022, the DALL-E mini image generator started going viral after the internet discovered its ability to create funny and disturbing images.
Created in 2021, DALL-E is known as a transformer language model that can turn almost any idea into images.
“It receives both the text and the image as a single stream of data containing up to 1280 tokens, and is trained using maximum likelihood to generate all of the tokens, one after another,” according to Open AI.
“This training procedure allows DALL·E to not only generate an image from scratch, but also to regenerate any rectangular region of an existing image that extends to the bottom-right corner, in a way that is consistent with the text prompt.”

The AI was named after Pixar’s Wall-E, according to The Big Issue.
Even though DALL-E creates some disturbing images, there’s no need to worry about it.
The AI is basing its creations on information humans have given it and is in no way predicting the future despite conspiracy theories suggesting as much.
