@rolle And then you start counting fingers in the pic and wonder if it was created with AI.
It's so, so sad indeed.
...and seeing some "funny" AI slop circulating on Mastodon just now, makes me wish there was a feature to flag AI content, just like it's possible to flag other inapproriate material...
Edit: as it happens, there already is a request for this in Mastodon upstream: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/30277
@rolle It really is.
I dabble in writing, and when i post ,my work on other sites people, go " IS this AI" or " Oh this must be AI"
no...
I spennd many hours on that...days, weeks even months,.
@rolle Well, images, videos and written text had a good run.
Now it's written books and stuff via archive.org that can be somewhat trusted.
On the bright side, more time for #gardening now 😅
@rolle slop = spam
And just like the spam of old, allowing slop to invade any online space instantly lowers the value of that space and sets it on a dramatic downward trajectory to zero.
