"completely harmless if you're more than a few inches away"
This was in the "disassemble for scraps" tent. I do not think that's a particularly reasonable thing to assume.
95% of the time, someone unscrews the housing, sees the radiation symbol, behaves appropriately. 5% of the time it goes in a garage junk box, gets dropped, kid finds the shiny yellow disc and tries to open it.
As it was, this was hilarious, and perfectly on-brand for EMF. I'm glad there's not a small nuclear source sitting in some unknowing person's hackspace, I'm glad someone was watching out, and them wearing cute animal ears makes the story even better!
I actually think it somewhat proves the opposite. It's clear they've tacked on a "make images of a diverse set of people" in the setup prompt, rather than baking diversity in properly and with more nuance.
Tbh, I think I'd rather have diverse founding fathers by default (obvious problem, fixable by changing your prompt), than DALL-E's current default, which seems to just draw all white people. (I just requested a few images of doctors, nurses and patients, and an elven council - every last person of the 103 it drew was white).
I agree their phrasing could have been better. However in my country it typically takes 1-2 years to get a diagnosis and start treatment. It's even a few months to a year if you go private.
I can see this sort of thing being at least a stop-gap, and something that might help while someone's waiting to get access to the better treatment.
