'12 Angry Men' is a 1957 American film that depicts the jury system of 12 men who reach a verdict in the trial of a boy accused of murdering his father. Most of the scenes in the film take place in a closed room where the 12 jurors discuss their verdict.
Andy Kelly, who watched '12 Angry Men' on Prime Video, pointed out some issues with the thumbnail image used for the film on the platform.

Although the image posted by Kelly has the original title '12 Angry Men' written on it, it is clear that there are more than 12 men in the image. Therefore, Kelly posted, 'I'm watching the classic movie '19 Angry Men' on Prime Video.'
In the film, 12 jurors debate behind closed doors whether or not the boy killed his father, but in the image below there are clearly more than a dozen men lined up.
If you look closely at the image, you can see that the jurors' faces are unnaturally squashed, which is why Kelly said, 'I can't believe that this image is on the front page of a major streaming platform. We're really in the age of AI garbage.'
However, the thumbnail image in question did not appear on the Japanese version of Prime Video.
On the individual pages, only a scene from '12 Angry Men' was shown, and no thumbnail image was displayed.
In addition, Kelly's post was also criticized for, 'This is probably an image that one of the employees found through a Google search and used as a thumbnail. It's highly unlikely that a studio would create such an image on their own and use it in a media pack or streaming service.'
On the social news site Hacker News , it has been pointed out that album blurbs on Apple Music are generated by AI. ow293j45o23j , who pointed this out, wrote, 'A few weeks ago, I was looking at albums on Apple Music and noticed that the blurbs for one artist's albums were all wordy, hackneyed, and used unusual words over and over again. So I looked into this and found that all of the blurbs behind the albums were generated by AI. Apple acquired a company for this purpose a few years ago, so now I try not to waste time reading album blurbs on Apple Music.'
In addition, 'Twelve Angry Men' can be viewed not only on Prime Video, but also on Amazon.co.jp for 1,400 yen (tax included) for the Blu-ray version, 1,129 yen (tax included) for the DVD version, and 2,500 yen (tax included) for the laser disc version.
