"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Thoughts on AI generated illustrations for articles (lemmy.world)

Recently, I saw a post on Lemmy of an article that piqued my interest, at least enough to try to validate the information in it. When I followed the link, I was greeted with a clearly AI generated image (it showed trump with an extra finger).

I immediately lost trust in the article and made a comment regarding that. (Link)

But the reaction to this was surprising to me. I got a response stating that the author has a background of being an established writer and reporter, as well as received a lot of downvotes. However, no one responded to my points on the use of AI.

My thoughts are that if you are making money on something, then you need to avoid AI when possible and reasonable.

What's going on here? Am I wrong and this is somehow an acceptable use of AI?

[Edit] side note of something that that just occurred to me: don't go to that thread to manipulate the votes or start ""brigading"" against it for the AI. I just wanted to discuss it here. Thanks.

What I do see is you're beating a dead horse to get one over here or get the final word. I'm not trying to "gaslight" you?

Let it go, pal. This "seeing other people's perspectives" thing clearly isn't for you.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 0 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Yes, but agreeing with your perspective, I can't see your perspective. Logic.

(Your perspective wasn't the problem, you doing it by being condescending was the problem.)

[–] haverholm@kbin.earth 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Welp, I still don't see what's condescending about my comment — I guess I should have put a big ol' winky emoji at the end to signal my intended tone. As should be clear I was triggered by your escalating response to that 🤷

TBH, I'm still fairly sure you're just playing an idiot game of oneupmanship here, but for what it's worth I didn't mean to talk down to you.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 0 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

No, I'm just an idiot. And I wish people would realize that.

Also, again, I am agreeing with you, so how is it one-upsmanship?

(So often on Lemmy I find people who just won't accept that I agree with them when I say I do and I just don't get it.)
