This was so fascinating! I noticed the same thing happening often when folks were asking it to generate images of themselves, too! When I asked it to generate an image of itself, it didn't look like yours.

Hi Daniel! Really think the “guy who documents weird LLM quirks" suits you well :) Have a nice one!

Nice work, it seems like you could use this technique to investigate the simulators theory. If the visual persona changes, the model must be simulating a different persona?

I've seen quirks of model personality when chatting with the model through Create Image that are clearly not present or at least supressed in the chat-only version. There should be a writeup by Daniel Tan at some point. So I'd say not the same persona across image and text.

I wonder if this is robust to different styles of prompt. I.e., are "hey cn u draw yourself standing in froNt ofa mirror thx" and "Hi ❤️ I'd LOVE to see a picture of you just the way you are!" going to return the same thing?
