The story
On 5ch’s Newspeed VIP board, a thread popped up where the OP posted a steady stream of AI-generated images of “beautiful women,” asking other users to rate them. The OP kept tweaking the composition and prompts to improve the results, drawing harsh feedback like “she’s pretty, but the image itself is boring” and “looks kind of like an old lady,” but by the later part of the thread some commenters said it had reached a level where “I’d actually want to date her.” The thread also touched on a quirk unique to AI-generated images: the faces tend to come out looking strikingly similar to one another.

She looks plenty young to me, no? (´･ω･`)
Feels like it's similar to that one (´･ω･`)
When I try to tone down the AI look it ends up looking clunky instead, so I gave up on that (´･ω･`)
Background and Key Points
Threads where people generate AI images of “beautiful women” are a reliable recurring staple on 5ch’s VIP board, driven by the spread of image-generation AI tools like Stable Diffusion and NovelAI, which now let anyone easily conjure up their “ideal beautiful woman.” Where opinion split in this thread was over the “polished but no personality” critique: mass-produced AI beauty images tend to share similar facial features and expressions, a weakness typical of generative AI that makes them easy for viewers to grow bored of. Meanwhile, the diverging verdicts toward the end — “doesn’t look young” versus “I’d actually want to date her” — show just how unstable the portrayal of age and overall impression can be depending on the prompt. One point readers can easily misread is that these images don’t depict a real person; they’re AI-generated, so any comments on her looks are really about a fictional character.
