AI image generation models treat Chinese text like a "close enough" modeโ€”they roughly know what characters should appear, but when it comes to the exact shape of each character, they just wing it. What's worse, they have a habit of "gilding the lily" (adding extra characters or decorative layers), which ends up backfiring. The reason wrapping Chinese text in quotation marks works is that, in the training data, the model has learned that text inside quotation marks follows a "must be copied exactly" pattern.
