Looking for painting: picture of a man painting a woman with a twist (sopuli.xyz)

I'm trying to find the author and the title of a painting that I vaguely remember.

The painting shows a man painting a woman. It looks like an ordinary self portrait but if you look closer you will see that the painted woman has an arm going out of the picture and is directing the arm of the painter.

I think the painted woman was the master of the male painter?

I think it's from Italy, 17th century (very vague reminiscence here)?

I keep thinking about Artemisia Gentileschi but can't find any link to something similar

Any help would be appreciated, it's driving me crazy

Scientists: we made this neat thing that approximates human sounding speech!

Everyone: I'm going to believe every word this thing says

"We trained it on social media."

"Why does it keep making stuff up and then getting argumentative if called out?!"

Somehow the model that Bing uses is extremely aggressive in gaslighting you. It would be funny if it wasn't so reminiscent of some of the most abusive relationships I've seen irl...

Hopefully you're in a better situation now, I'm sorry to hear you've had to go through that.

I guess I'm fortunate that I tend to associate it with some of the worst conversations I've had with people on Reddit rather than anything more personal.

I had someone tell me the other day that they ask AI chatbots for things that they want the correct answer for. They use it as a jumping off point to do more research to find the correct answer. Tbh, I flipped my shit a bit and kept saying "you know it's not designed to just know the correct answer to everything, just to generate sentences from data collected online".

The fact that people use AI text generators for legitimate inquiries is just so incredibly concerning to me that I could hardly believe it to be true. And I don't know how to respond to it.

Even weirder was that Google asked me the other day if I wanted to turn on AI generated answers for my search results. Wtf? Why would I want random convincing sounded nonsense to populate my search results??
