AI-generated photos of 'people' at a party look eerily realistic - until you take a closer look

Artificial intelligence can now let people invent a social life by creating images that suggest they attended a party that never happened and with friends that do not exist. Twitter user Miles created a realistic-looking collection with the AI system Midjourney, which generated images of women smiling at the camera and men raising their cups for a toast. The images appear to be candid shots of friends at a party, but a closer look may give you nightmares. The'people' are grinning with mouths full of teeth, hands are growing from hips and tattoos look like mold growing on their skin. However, the excessive amount of fingers has captivated the internet, with one user saying they look like'a nest of alien appendages sprouting forth to devour their host.'
