I would argue that if you’re being pedantic about the language being used, then why are you implying anyone asked an AI to make a portrait of anyone?

Obviously, yes, it’s not a self-portrait by the dictionary definitions of “self” and “portrait” but people use “self-portrait” to refer to a description of a person all the time, particularly in settings where emotional intelligence is discussed.

Yes, I’m being pedantic, but so were you, so it feels fair game. But nothing in the article actually makes it seem as if a portrait is being illustrated other than the metaphorical portrait

How is this in any way related to the post?
