We have played around with it before, it is okay but really needs work to make more combinations unique, make sense or just work, we find it limiting that some things cannot be combined yet.
When these things are fixed then it’ll be a lot more interesting, useful and fun ioo.
It sort of looks to me like some of them are human-created (or at least human-curated), and some of the crappier or more nonsensical ones are created by generative AI.
I couldn’t find any ones that it would refuse to do – maybe it’s recently started using an AI image generator for those ones?
Edit: Okay, now I am sure that it’s using generative AI. I’m not trying to talk smack about the majority of them that are pretty reasonable and even sometimes creative, but also, sunset + butterfly yields:
It seems like you and maybe at least one other person are just not grasping what I am saying here.
A human did not make that decision. Sounds like it’s possible that maybe you are reading a lie that Google is telling you, and believing it is truth, I don’t really know, but yes they’re using generative AI for at least some of them.
A lot of the combinations with 🦋 + rare emoji end up looking like that, just putting the rare emoji as the head and tip of wand and coloring the “humanoid with wings” body in the rare emoji’s color.
I’m not saying it’s definitely not GenAI, but it’s also something that can easily be solved with an explicit algorithm.
Most emoji work that way, they have a few templates and then paste the other emoji into predetermined places.

No, it’s certainly not AI. Every image was made by an human.

That’s a fairy
