"Imagine this. You need an image of a balloon for a work presentation and turn
to a text-to-image generator, like Midjourney or DALL-E, to create a suitable
image.

You enter the prompt: “red balloon against a blue sky” but the generator
returns an image of an egg instead. You try again but this time, the generator
shows an image of a watermelon.

What’s going on?

The generator you’re using may have been “poisoned”."
