      It’s always a crapshoot “psychoanalyzing” anything over the Internet, let alone an AI, but I’m betting that some of the concepts involved in the image are coming along with baggage that the AI is having a hard time getting over.

      • Ghosts are usually depicted chasing something, not being chased themselves.
      • Pac Man is a protagonist, usually when there’s art depicting Pac Man he is depicted front and center.

      So it’s weighing your “have Pac Man chase the ghosts” directive against “but ghosts normally do the chasing” that it has learned from its training set and it ends up that way.

      Not sure what to try to swing the interpretation. Maybe describe the ghosts as cowardly and terrified to put more weight into “they’re being chased?” Describe Pac Man as menacing or looming to make it more appropriate for him to be behind them?
