I'm going to draw a line with AI at what I call the "eyes on forehead" problem. With Ai Image rendering, there is the emergent trend of AI images being like a horror film, with faceless and extra-features on faces. When AI is using a LLM dataset to fill in the gaps, it becomes a problem, because it's guessing what should be there when the "natural" noise would be better depicting nothing. Predictive vectors such as SVG use smooth images. i think the rasterization of a dataset turns single pixels into quasi-intelligible datapoints, but when treated indendently by a dumb AI, ends up rendering eye balls on a forehead. This is your problem, not mine. Please fix it.

The other case I would worry about is over-compressing text changing the letters, but it's an old and known problem https://www.dkriesel.com/en/blog/2013/0802_xerox-workcentres_are_switching_written_numbers_when_scanning https://www.dkriesel.com/en/blog/2013/0802_xerox-workcentres...

  That or you're in a lucid dream. I once read the way to test if you're in a lucid dream, is to look around for an alarm clock. If it tells the wrong time, it's probably a lucid dream. This conversation can't be a lucid dream unless it's the script of Waking Life. ;) That Xerox bug is interesting- I once used a Parallel port cable to print to an Apple Laser Printer from the 90s, until Windows 7 no longer supported the driver. I don't remember how many megabytes were transferred for large print jobs, but it seemed to take a while. I thought- perhaps it would be better if it sent the data in low-byte, text only code, so that the printer-side can reconstruct text using hard-coded translation the as opposed rendering all the bitmap- and while some data was xferred as a JPEG, perhaps it was compressed, and thus altered.
