I just looked for ai slop on the internet and some videos are very realistic, so realistic it makes me doubt my ability to discern what’s real from what’s created to play with my emotions and generate money for the creator or advance an agenda.

I’m in my 40s. Video sites are full of what I assume overconfident people younger than me with comments like how boomers would believe any of these videos. I’m not that old myself yet but this stuff is scary. It can be used to denigrate a politician, to demonize or ridicule minorities, to share misinformation, to make porn using the face of somebody who rejected a disgruntled man…

It’s also very sad society actually wants this. It shows lots of people are actually very gullible and stupid.

A better question would be, how do I avoid being gullible with images and video so realistic? Because the more technology advances the worse it’s going to get.

    That guys voice.

    Plus, minor grammatical errors. eg. “Has increased the Tens of times”

    Also, Bruce Lee having a fight.

      I don’t understand why an AI would make grammatical errors. Isn’t that the one thing they’re supposed to be good at?

      That woman’s voice too.

      And it’s not just Bruce Lee having a fight.
      It’s angry conceited Martial Arts fighter picks random person out of a crowd for a demonstration,
      who happened to be none other than calm collected Bruce Lee, yet no one knew who he was,
      with 4k grayscale picture quality and at all angles of the dojo, including on individual audience members themselves, plus repetitive ‘damaged film’ effects for 20th century authenticity.
