From generating extra hands to duplicate husbands in photos, the AI’s quirky (and creepy) glitches turned into meme material across Instagram.

Adding fuel to the fire, rumors about privacy risks (like reverse-engineering your Ghibli-filtered pics) made users panic — though experts say that’s unlikely. In the middle of this chaos, Google jumped in, opening its Gemini 2.5 beta for free users — but it struggled to replicate the Ghibli magic. What’s next?
