A very limited use case? These are cherry-picked examples. I'm responding to the specific cherry-picking they're doing.

No, it's artificial because it's coming from a generative model. If you want your image generator to always be 100% historically accurate, you better train it that way -- Google chose not to. But then don't be annoyed when it can't draw a picture of a dragon. In fact, what would you expect to happen if you asked it to draw "a dragon attacking a German WWII brigade?" Would you lose your mind because some of the German soldiers are Asian women? There's a damn dragon in the picture! What does accuracy even mean at that point?
