According to AI, most professionals look like models or actors. Or, at least, that’s what it seems like in the new series of Midjourney-generated images by BuzzFeed writer Angelica Martinez. She asked the AI image generator what an average person looks like based on a variety of careers, from astronauts and doctors to influencers and baristas.
Unsurprisingly, AI has a very polished vision of what an average professional looks like. Everyone appears to be their best selves, fit and trim without a hair out of place. At first glance, AI appears to have gotten things right. The firefighters have their gear on, the dentists are flashing their beautiful smiles, and the news anchors give smoldering glances at the camera.
But, when you really dive in, it seems like the technology made some odd choices that spark questions about what source material humans used to train it.

WHAT’S YOUR DEFINITION OF ROMANTIC?
Romance to me means a mutual emotional connection between two people that deals with chemistry and physical attraction, to a point where one’s actions are predicated on their love for the other.
