DALL-E 2: A 7 patty cheeseburger surrounded by thick cut fries with a glass of soda
I wanted to see how DALL-E 2 handled food requests, I gave it the following query “A 7 patty cheeseburger surrounded by thick cut fries with a glass of soda” and thought it did alright. It even gave me the option of both regular and cheese fries in one image. Some of the glasses look a bit odd, that’s blatantly a can of Coke, and I don’t know what is going on with the bowl of cheese or butter in the one image but not bad. I will say it didn’t take the number “7” into account at all, although it was a very wordy query. I imagine with some refinement of the input you could get a much better image but not bad for my first cheeseburger query!
All of the below images were generated by DALL-E 2 from a text input.
Patty looks real and possibly like ribeye, fries look real, the glass is peculiar, the bun is almost perfect but the eggwash reflecting the light in the top right is ever so slightly off. Hands down this is the most realistic-looking burger of the lot.
Fries look real, that’s blatantly a coke can, the glass isn’t very good, I’m not sure what’s going on with the paper in the top right by the coke can, the bread and patty look fake but the plasticized cheese looks very real compared to cafeteria food as does the visually unappealing lettuce.
This table is beautiful, something weird going on with the chair, the fries look like they’ve accidentally merged with some sort of chicken or fish breading in spots, the bun looks more like a super chonky pancake, and the glass is perfect except for the weird ice anomaly at the back of the roughly 12 o’clock position where it looks like the ice physically goes through the glass, I’m not sure what’s with the slabs of butter or cheese in the mirraging metal dish though, and the burger patty reminds me of McDonald’s ‘steak’ in their old steak, egg, and cheese bagel.
This glass looks good aside from appearing like it’s been photoshopped in from another image. The cheese fries look good but overexposed, the regular fries have all sorts of weird things going on, the bun here looks very blah and the edge of the patty is just odd.
Someone smashed the top of the bun but it looks real, the bottom of the bun is a bit less real, the plasticized cheese looks real and the patty just looks like your generic cafeteria super processed patty. The fries, as with other examples, are just slightly strange looking in places and metal tray they are on looks good except for that “11” bar roughly in the middle. This glass doesn’t appear symmetrical but it’s one of the better ones of the lot, I would 100% hate that ice in real life though.
Bun, cheese, fries, and bowl all look fine. The glass again though has issues with the rim although the rest of it is probably the best of the lot and the ice looks decent especially given how opaque the drink appears to be. The patty though, the patty just looks wrong.
