I bet someone shares this link every time you post about bicycles, but since I didn't see anyone share it yet in this thread, I'll take the opportunity to do so:

Turns out even humans can be pretty bad at drawing bicycles :)

On a new model release, you can guarantee two things are in the replies to Simon. One is your link, the other is "surely the models are being trained on this now"

Sure, but no one is trying to force art from most people into about every area in the economy where anyone ever pays for something visual. If you asked professional artists to draw a realistic bicycle, I'm guessing few of them would try to just randomly guess what the mechanical parts looked like

But if you need to draw a bicycle, you wouldn’t pick a random person in the street. You would hire an artist and you’d be guaranteed to have at least a believable one if not a perfect rendering.

No guarantees is why LLM is akin to gambling. Every new context is essentially picking someone out of the crowd.

As an aside, some of the renders have only a single side connection to the wheel and that is a valid bike design, the Cannondale Lefty front fork only has a left leg:

Haha
