We used the Amazon Mechanical Turk (MTurk) platform to receive human feedback on the AIgenerated images. Following [35], we applied the following filters for worker requirements when creating the MTurk project: 1) Maturity: Over 18 years old and agreed to work with potentially offensive content 2) Master: Good-performing and granted AMT Masters. We required five different annotators per sample. Figure 6 shows the design layout of the survey.

Based on an hourly wage of $16 per hour, each annotator was paid $0.02 for answering a single multiple-choice question. The total amount spent for human annotations was $13,433.55.
