It's a mess. I can't trust anything online as coming from a real human anymore. It's all filters, generated, or paid for. The God of profit corrupts everything it touches.

Dead Internet theory is becoming more than just a theory

That is what happens when the Internet became serious business.

I miss the internet from the times when South Park was making fun of it for not being a serious place to do business and features the early internet YouTube memes.

Things were simpler then.

It will always be more and more important to know the source of the info and how trustworthy it is. This is, of course, why authoritarians like Trump are always going on, trying to discredit the media, especially those with some scruples left.

Fake images cause damage! We will now show them all to you!

[–] [email protected] 48 points 11 months ago

I think it's more that the pictures being represented as real is what's damaging though...

Adobe Stock Contributor. Someone, as a contributor, listed these photos to earn a commission for sales for photo content they say is theirs and own the copyright for.

It’s a decent side hustle but I’d never upload AI crap.

Fuck Adobe and it's greedy CEO Shantanu Narayen.

Why does the most reasonable and balanced take have the most downvotes?

This is absolutely the journalists' fault. It doesn't matter if its AI-generated or not.

[–] RGB3x3 2 points 10 months ago

Because Adobe willingly selling these images is incredibly dangerous and unethical.

Both Journalists and Adobe are at fault. And it doesn't surprise me that a company as shitty as Adobe is doing something like this, but we can at least try to hold them accountable.

As has been prophesized... and it's only starting.

Is it selling fake AI images? Or fake images made by AI?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 11 months ago

If we had these before we wouldn't have to be fighting for real smh

[–] [email protected] 6 points 11 months ago

Sigh...this is only going to make things even worse!

This is why Bidens recent executive order is so important.

The obituary you posted doesn't mention Israel or Gaza. Why did you link it?

[–] TropicalDingdong 8 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Reads like AI

[–] Kolrami 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I thought so too, but it's getting harder to tell the difference between AI and weird people.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

The OP account definitely seems to be.

All the posts they’ve made have a header, sub header, “::”, and description, with all the copy around the same length each time. It’d be a weird amount of effort to not be using GPT for this
