Why do you care if a photo is AI or not?

  1. if image is generated, it ain’t a photo
  2. People abuse AI. Fakeness was a problem already before, now it becomes norm.
  3. Everywhere I go, everywhere I look, I get someone trying to deepthroat me with LLM. I have quite honestly enough and I am opposing it both out of pettines and to - together with other folk - force it to calm down.
  4. …and lastly, what do I care about someones inane ramblings towards pixel generator? There’s nothing original in it, there’s no soul, there’s no feelings and no personal touches. Fuck that.

  Overall tho, I am not even that much against AI as it is now. What pisses me off is overeliance on it coupled with it worsening already shitty dead internet. People are growing dumber, authenticity dies in some forgotten corner of the net, real life relations that bunch of years ago sprouted over the internet today would have no chance. And all that for glorified, glazing statistics machine.

    For anyone still not getting it, watch the anime ‘carole and tuesday’ from 2019.

    AI feels lifeless in a creative space. I rather pay 10x to have a video included on the human creation process.

    AI is like food without any taste, yes it fills your tummy, yes it’s healthy. No I do not enjoy or like it

  I consider it a way to express my current position on how AI and LLM’s are currently being developed and implemented. If large data centers are being built without community input and will adversely affect said community, if AI is seriously being considered for use in national defense without vetting its capabilities, if companies are recklessly replacing human beings with an LLM, again, without vetting its capabilities, this is a serious problem. And I have to admit I was initially excited about AI and a pretty avid user of ChatGPT before I was made aware of all these concerns. So I can no longer use it in good conscience.

  So yeah, random dude generating an AI pic seems innocent enough, except where it implies a tacit endorsement of the completely avoidable disruptions stated above. So hopefully a critical mass of people stating their disapproval of such may eventually reach the right pair of ears. Hopefully. But from what I’ve seen, the people advocating for mass AI adoption are so far up their own asses with hype that it might take more than this.

    the physical places that house AI are destroying communities and environments

    the AI is being trained on stolen works of artists, writers, and honestly everything that exists online

    AI when it works damages critical thinking, and uses human psychology against us

    yeah i’m not excited about AI either, i used to be. but seeing the reality of what’s going on just makes me sad about how - what could’ve been a wonderful tool, and potentially, one day, even a sapient companion to humanity - it’s being used

      I think it’s also emblematic of how corrupt our system has become. We don’t have money or housing for the unhoused. We don’t have power for an all electric vehicle transport system. We must baby step every little inch of progress and fight tooth an nail as services are cut out from under us.

      Yet these data centers spring up out of nowhere taking our water before we can drink it, and consuming power that our communities already paid for. Our representatives sell our services to take care of them because corruption is just lobbying. They dump pollution and excess heat into our communities during a climate catastrophe.

      And it’s all for a technology that has a rather small use case where it works well, but is being crammed into everything whether it needs it or not making perfectly good tech into barely functional crap. All so that like ten white dudes can hoard more wealth, and control more and more aspects of all of our lives.

  If it is a generated image, then it is by definition not a photograph.

      This is why I hate Lemmy. People are so obsessed about pedantic posting rules all we get is news links.

    If the photo is real, someone doing this is ridiculous, the effort is commendable and the comparison to a normal person is so stark that it’s funny. If the photo isn’t real, no one did this, there’s no comparison to the normal person because there’s no one actually doing it, and I feel robbed of that funny feeling I should feel if it were real. Thus, learning that some funny picture isn’t real infuriates me.

      though if a shop is high-effort enough this might make it interesting again, whereas ai-generated content is always low-effort
