Indeed, your example explains what's going on perfectly.

Generative AI images are "plausible description generators" with a human in the loop.

Given a prompt from a human, they produce an image likely to be labeled as such by a human.

"Well sure that's a Mexican person but I meant..." is not a valid caption.
