The most unbelievable thing about these photos are that trump could kneel like that without shattering

I haven't actually reflected on the fact that he seems to be in a frequent state of Leaning tower of Pisa

[–] [email protected] 28 points 4 months ago (3 children)

He looks like he’s permanently in the stance of the front half of a two-person horse costume where the back half guy didn’t show up

[–] Viking_Hippie 10 points 4 months ago

the back half guy didn’t show up

To be fair to the purely hypothetical guy, would YOU show up? I know I wouldn't!

AI has come to the point where I only have a "gut feeling" it is AI because it looks so polished and weird. But there are many other (stolen) art-styles that look completely different and I wouldn't notice if no one told me.

you cannot sniff them out anymore by just saying "look at the wretched fingers"

Really? Not even the totally detached hotdog on the general in the back?

Him playing air guitar. Missing a finger on the other side

I mean at a glance that could be a really awkward cigar pose but yeah, it's got some stuff wrong that a second look will reveal.

Here are the images from Twitter, so slightly better resolution.

The photo of him saluting the N. Korean general is real. We don't even need to fabricate this kind of material. If we are going to fabricate it, Trump's service should be more explicit and x-rated.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 4 months ago

I like the idea of fabricating it specifically to use on Twitter since Elon is being a piece of shit about it all.

[–] [email protected] 48 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Looks like AI, but at this point I wouldn't be that suprised if it was genuine.

[–] kautau 11 points 4 months ago

North Korea, you know folks say, folks say, oh North Korea, but let me tell you folks Kim is lovely, and he’s a big fan so we love him. And people are saying North Korea, folks let me tell you, let me just say, the North Korean people are lovely. Beautiful country, nobody even needs to vote folks, how nice is that

[–] RememberTheApollo_ 40 points 4 months ago (8 children)

Which AI does realistic representations of real people? I’ve tried some and they can never get the likeness right. Or it seems they might get the face close, but the scene you’re trying to create wrong.

[–] linearchaos 29 points 4 months ago (3 children)

AI isn't that magical. You get good images by continuing to feed it prompts and tweaking weights until it eventually makes something good. Lighting kinda suggests mid journey, but it could as easily be 1000 tries of stable diffusion.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 months ago (1 children)

@[email protected]

Also if it's on Stable Diffusion there's 100% a LoRA for those two available. So from that point it would be harder not to get their likeness :D

I asked chatGPT to draw Trump with Biden as a shark and instead of refusing it literally drew Hitler in a boat being threatened by a shark in Aviators

Yes that looks totally real and not like AI at all

[–] [email protected] 72 points 4 months ago

Of course not, it's a trustworthy source. They have a blue checkmark after all...

[–] LordWiggle 25 points 4 months ago

Yeah I know! Totally real!

[–] [email protected] 9 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

You can usually tell it's AI by looking at the hands. Trump's are obviously way too large for this to be a real picture.

Trump: Only I can resolve the North & South Korean war in one day
Also Trump:

[–] Lumisal 20 points 4 months ago (3 children)

The obvious clue this is AI is still in the hands. The first one has some deformed hands, and in the second Trump's hands are too big

[–] [email protected] 11 points 4 months ago

also the fact that just about everything looks weird

The AI didn't do a great job with Un. Pretty accurate with Trump.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 4 months ago (7 children)

I was actually thinking the exact opposite. Interesting to me though, is that we both see the subtleties which makes it look like AI. I can't point it out exactly (like too many fingers or something), but it's like the contours of their faces are off? Or something uncanny, at the least. I feel like photoshop could do it better (though not nearly as fast)

This means nothing. We really need to see pictures of them more naked to be sure.

[–] LordWiggle 17 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

This is another source, which proves the first one

More of this please. I mean if there are people who believed pizzagate, the same people never heard about AI pictures and would believe this, too.

[–] lemonmelon 50 points 4 months ago (12 children)

Faked photographs intended to serve as deceptive propaganda don't seem like something we should be asking for more of, no matter who the target is.

[–] LordWiggle 18 points 4 months ago (3 children)

I completely agree with you. But on the other hand I'm thinking: "They use fake news and fabricated bullshit to convince others to their cause. It works because in general people are dumb, so why not use the same tacric to divert the dumb voters into the right direction".

But I'm against spreading fake news, there's already so much out there and it's getting harder every day to distinguish real from fake, even for people like me (an OSINT analyst). It's just that extremists use nasty weapons and don't care about ethics while I try to stay honest. It's like bringing a knife into a gun fight. The general public doesn't think but blindly believes anything they see and follow the person who screams the loudest "I have a sollution" without understanding those solutions do more harm then good.

Seriously, the movie Idiocracy is a documentary, not a comedy. It's painful how realistic it is.

I say this to my SO all the time, but they have “faith in humanity” for some reason.

Especially re: how AI/robotics will be the “great equalizer”. They think eventually goods will be so cheap and we will have UBI and no one will have to work… I think, no matter how cheap goods are, the corporations will find ways to make money and/or keep people poor. They say, “If the corporations do that, people will rise up and make them.” I say, “Are you actually sure about that? We let corporations do all kinds of other nasty things without repercussions…”

[–] LordWiggle 6 points 4 months ago

"Yeah! People will rise up! Second amendment baby!" - brings an AR-15 to a drone fight while those companies, whether it's the US government or private, know which porn they watch every night. Their life is ruined when they are cut off from tiktok and Instagram, they will starve to death when they cannot pay for food anymore because the internet is cut off, so banking and digital payment is gone.

Look at Google, having a monopoly right now, free to do whatever the fuck they want. Disney+ apparently having in their license agreement they are not liable if they killed someone in one of their parks. Mercedes Benz is planning to build a mega tower in Dubai, using slave labor like is the standard there. Like they have been doing in China with Oighurs in concentration camps, with their history during the Second World War. Apple using child labor and exploiting miners of rare earth metal mines in third world countries.

Yeah, people will rise up. No one accepts oppression. *coughs in Russian, Korean, Chinese, etc.

No. Because there's actual photos of Trump saluting North Korean generals, posing with Epstein, and more. By spreading fake photographs we're giving them cover to claim legitimate pictures as being faked.

Does M. tollerates this on Twitter? Or only when its pro Trump?

The awkward kiss almost convinced me it was real. Almost. The kneeling photo is a bit jank and hard to believe, but the kiss being so awkward is so believable that it almost convinced me lol.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

God this just made me think though, I would bet North Korea is actually using AI for even better propaganda against their citizens right now. Being so disconnected from the rest of the world and tech starved, the people probably don't know a machine could even do this.

I love the irony. Is this fake? Even if it's fake, it could have happened. It would have happened. Trump wishes it had happened. Trump wouldn't know whether it actually happened, but only whether he wanted it to have happened.

Nah, I can't see Teump getting on his knees. Not because of pride but because he probably wouldn't be able to get back up without help.

The left one has all the classic symptoms of crappy AI. The right one...well, that's pretty good.
