The first thing people saw when they searched Google for the artist Hieronymus Bosch was an AI-generated version of his Garden of Earthly Delights, one of the most famous paintings in art history.

Depending on what they are searching for, Google Search sometimes serves users a series of images above the list of links they usually see in results. As first spotted by a user on Twitter, when people searched for “Hieronymus Bosch” on Google, it included a couple of images from the real painting, but the first and largest image they saw was an AI-generated version of it.

This is “technology news and articles?”

Seems like this place is increasingly just people yelling at AI-generated clouds.

Sort of. I feel like I report half the posts around here because they’re neither news nor articles.

the world’s most-used search engine prioritising an AI-generated slop version of a very famous painting is very much “technology news and articles” imo
