I don't know if that's so much a mistake as it is ambiguity though? To me, using the viewer's perspective in this case seems totally reasonable.
Does it still use the viewer's perspective if the prompt specifies "Put a strawberry in the _patient's left eye_"? If it does, then you're onto something. Otherwise I completely disagree with this.
“Eye on the left” is different from “the left eye”. First can be ambiguous, second really isn’t.
I think "the left eye" in this particular case (a photo of a skull made of pancake batter) is still very slightly ambiguous. "The skull's left eye" would not be.
Interesting, because I would say the opposite. "On the left" suggests left of image, "the left eye" could be any version of left.
I guess there's some ambiguity regarding whether or not this can be ambiguous. Because it seems like it can to me.
“The right socket” can only be implied one way when talking about a body just like you only have one right hand despite the fact that it is on my left when looking at you.
I think the fact that anyone in this thread thinks it's ambiguous is proof by definition that it's ambiguous.
"Right hand" is practically a bigram that has more meaning, since handedness is such a common topic.
Also context matters, if you're talking to someone you would say "right shoulder" for _their_ right since you know it's an observer with different vantage point. Talking about a scene in a photo "the right shoulder" to me would more often mean right portion of the photo even if it was the person's left shoulder.
Having one person in the frame isn't enough to unambiguously put us into the "talking about a body" context.
"Plug into right power socket"
Same language, opposite meaning because of a particular noun + context.
I think the only thing obvious here is that there is no obvious solution other than adding lots of clarification to your prompt.
I think you missed the entire point?
