everyone is getting so tired of this algorithmic blandness lately. seeing this new exhibit makes me realize how much we miss that genuine human weirdness that prompt engineering just can't replicate. it feels like we are losing the ability to dream outside of a dataset anyone else feeling the same way about current design trends?

the issue is that we're training models on a feedback loop of existing web content, which just reinforces the same visual tropes over and over. it creates this infinite regression of mediocre aesthetics where nothing ever feels truly new or jarring. i've been trying to move my workflow toward more analog textures and scanned paper elements lately to break that digital sheen. it's much harder to replicate the way ink bleeds into fiber via a prompt . >"dreaming outside of a dataset" is the perfect way to put it. do you think there's any way for designers to intentionally inject that "error" or randomness back into the process without just making it look messy?
