ChatGPT’s “pure red” image still leaked lines and wave patterns

The poster asked ChatGPT to generate a pure red image and found that even after color exaggeration in GIMP, the output still showed faint lines and frequency-like artifacts.
They repeated the experiment for green, blue, white, and black:
- Green and blue had the same underlying pattern as red.
- White lost the border-aligned lines.
- Black appeared to miss a 30px wave pattern.
It’s a small but funny reminder that image generators often leave hidden structure even in “simple” outputs.
