Looks like they scrubbed swastikas out of the training set? I have mixed feelings about this. Like if they want something to have historical accuracy or my own personal opinions on censorship that shouldn't be scrubbed. But also this is the perfect tool to churn out endless amounts of pro nazi propaganda so maybe it's safer to keep it removed?

I wonder if it's just a hard shape to get right, like hands.

Isn't there an entire subreddit of humans who can't get it right? I think we're starting to see considerable overlap between the intelligence of the smartest AI and the dumbest humans.

Probably. Image generators still have a bit of trouble with signs and iconography. A swastika probably falls into a similar category.
