       I am making a graphic for a National Punctuation Day post, and while in Canva, I thought, "They have a new AI tool, and this seems like an easy project. Let's see what it can do."So I used this prompt:a graphic of colorful punctuation marks on a solid backgroundUm ... these are not all punctuation marks. (I had already heard it is bad with generating words.)I am always highly amused by AI fails, so I am sharing it with all of you.

       @grammargirl I like it! “We could have chosen any of those random-looking shapes. Why did we pick these specific ones‽

       @grammargirl Thinking alternatively, we just got a cart load of new punctuation marks, thanks to you!

       @grammargirl They are the punctuation marks AIs use. ;)

       @grammargirl Ugly and wrong are the watchwords of creative AI.

       @grammargirl I also love AI fails. Everyone, keep sharing them. 😬

       @grammargirl You didn't specify the language. Some of those are punctuation marks of ancient Aramaic. :)

       @grammargirl Took me a few tries with Starry AI, but it came up with something reasonable, if not accurate (fig. 1).Usually I struggle with using Pixlr's AI, but it seemed to understand the instructions on the first go (fig. 2).NightCafe's SDXL 0.9 engine came up with something like Canva made for you (fig. 3), whereas its DALL-E 2 engine nailed it, albeit not with tremendous imagination (fig. 4).
