September 2, 20233 yr comment_919975 So with the whole SBF trial coming up, why do we only hear crickets about SAM TRABUCCO ? The guy bailed a couple months before the collapse and is suspected to be hiding in international waters off South America on his boat. You'd think at least the press would of gotten a snapshot of him lounging on the deck by now. Report
September 2, 20233 yr Author comment_919988 I can't recall if I posted the screenshot of the "Workers in Tennessee collecting the Dew from the Mountains" post in here or not. Either way, here's the whole set. Report
September 3, 20233 yr comment_920002 It makes me think of that scene in one of the Baroque Cycle by Neal Stephenson where Half-cocked Jack needs to make phosphor out of piss, so he distills it. (crickets) Just me? Report
September 3, 20233 yr Author comment_920022 That Mountain Dew set caused me to fall down a deep cursed AI rabbit hole. There's gonna be a lot of such images mixed in with the regular Slow. Most sane Gary Busey fanfic. In the parlance of our times, most comprehensible AI meme. Report
September 3, 20233 yr Author comment_920028 I elected to exclude some feet photos which are a non-euclidean nightmare they'd make Yog-Sothoth wince. I've still got a whole folder full of cursed AI images yet to go. The real horror here is the AI itself. Right now it's at the "haha that's so funny it's trying to make something real" phase. In a shorter time than we can imagine, it will be nearly impossible to identify AI images. I'm sure we will have people who becomes experts in the field, but that will not stop the era of disinformation from accelerating further. "Don't wake me, I plan on sleeping in." Report

While the pattern recognition models will get better, some increasing percentage of what it consumes in the future will be AI generated, and that recursion will make the hallucinations worse, not better. To be better, the AI would need to be able to differentiate between AI generated and not AI generated, and it can't. Report
September 3, 20233 yr comment_920037 I must recognize that Doug has a point, but I'm afraid Knuckles is right. In no time we'll be seeing videos of things that never happened looking as if they did. The deeper we go in this hole, the happier I am of not having successors of this cursed lineage of mine. Report

September 4, 20233 yr Author comment_920074 I'm almost 50 years old (most of head-case: "Cool story, Knuckles. We almost remember being 50 years old.") I'd like to think I'm still "hip" and "with it" but the zoomers inform me on a daily basis I am lacking in "rizz" and that's "no kizzy on god fr fr no cap." With that said, I use most of the same technologies the youts do. Discord is possibly the single most important app I use. Where I draw the line is Tik Tok. I have never used it nor will I. The other side of that coin is the fac that I can't stop staring into the abyss that is AI generated images. A generated "white Snoop Dogg" looks like Kid Rock. Report
September 4, 20233 yr comment_920081 Looks like Snoop Dogg...with a Willie Nelson wig and funny lighting and exposure to make him look pale. Unrelated: Report
