What if this is just some poor image generation code and a few hundred minimum wage workers manually assembling the examples? Unless I can feed it arbitrary sentences we can never know.

At least GPT-3 can generate texts much faster than a worker would need to create them manually.

They swear they aren't preselected. I am willing to bet you, but I am not sure how to settle the bet.
