This is a small-scale example of how the idiosyncrasies that allow us to unmask DALLE-2 do not matter to its ability to produce value: I like the third image a lot and I am using it on my social media profiles.* But much like in the original *Blade Runner* movie, these details may not really matter for their economic impact, and the fact that a way exists at all of identifying them will be even less relevant. Similarly, the fact that DALLE-2 and other image models have difficulties correctly rendering teeth or objects in relationship to each other doesn't really reflect their current ability or future potential to replace many thousands of artists, and generally shape the demand curves of art.
