"But very oddly, these bagels have the bottom fourth of the bagel cut away and discarded, in a way that I doubt that any human being has ever eaten a bagel, ever. Moreover, one of the shmears is labeled as Pink Label, which is an existing Boichik product, but one that looks nothing like what is depicted below. That's because what is depicted above is a completely fake AI-generated image."
"Forkable describes itself as providing catering for any event, powered with AI-tools, but the actual restaurateurs are none too happy to see their well-prepared cuisine presented as AI slop. If you're ordering off a menu, you want it to look like the actual food it just doesn't look right, Boichik Bagels owner Emily Winston told Eater SF. It looks like you're ordering fake, fake food."
Forkable replaced some restaurant photos with AI-generated images, including fake depictions of Boichik Bagels that show unrealistic halves and altered shmear appearance. Restaurateurs received an email on November 17 announcing replacement AI images to 'improve image quality and consistency,' with an option to manually upload real photos. Boichik owner Emily Winston criticized the approach, saying customers expect accurate representations and that the images 'look like you're ordering fake, fake food.' Restaurants object to the use of their names and dishes without permission. The substituted images have harmed trust and provoked anger among Bay Area restaurateurs.
