In this thread: I trained an AI on interior design photos. None of these photos had any humans. And yet these ghosts haunt my outputs. 
A small percentage of the outputs were dark, spooky living rooms. AI seems to misunderstand that some rooms are dark because it's night while others just have dark walls. The result is a liminal lighting from the nether zone.
A poster is a glossy rectangle on a wall.
A window is also glossy rectangle on a wall.

The classic "Banana Problem" in AI: It knows how to spell banana but not when to stop. In this case, it knows "modern interior design has chairs, right? More chairs means more design! MORE CHAIRS!"
You can see how the AI wasn't entirely sure of the difference between a bed and a couch if the photo has 1-pt perspective. Both are vaguely trapezoid with squarish cushions on top. I love the bedroom on the last image with three complete beds side-by-side.
It's common for the photos to depict greenery outside windows, but also large potted trees and plants inside. This confuses the AI, blending interior and exterior elements. In image 1, the ceiling blends into a cloudy sky. In image 4, a tree grows through the floor.
A selection of empty frames, which I assume were meant to be mirrors.
More grey rooms and rectangles.
