More of this please. I mean if there are people who believed pizzagate, the same people never heard about AI pictures and would believe this, too.

Faked photographs intended to serve as deceptive propaganda don’t seem like something we should be asking for more of, no matter who the target is.

If we’re gonna suffocate under avalanches of fakes why not invite the asshats to the party too.

If the target is someone who habitually lies about objective reality I approve of them receiving similar disinformation campaigns. What I don’t like is that these images are obvious fakes and obsequiousness to a dictator is something Trumpanzees love. So they’ll have no effect.

Thank you. This really is just asking to pour gasoline on the fire.

I don’t think this is something that will benefit us in the long term, regardless of how funny it is right now.

I completely agree with you. But on the other hand I’m thinking: “They use fake news and fabricated bullshit to convince others to their cause. It works because in general people are dumb, so why not use the same tacric to divert the dumb voters into the right direction”.

But I’m against spreading fake news, there’s already so much out there and it’s getting harder every day to distinguish real from fake, even for people like me (an OSINT analyst). It’s just that extremists use nasty weapons and don’t care about ethics while I try to stay honest. It’s like bringing a knife into a gun fight. The general public doesn’t think but blindly believes anything they see and follow the person who screams the loudest “I have a sollution” without understanding those solutions do more harm then good.

Seriously, the movie Idiocracy is a documentary, not a comedy. It’s painful how realistic it is.

I say this to my SO all the time, but they have “faith in humanity” for some reason.

Especially re: how AI/robotics will be the “great equalizer”. They think eventually goods will be so cheap and we will have UBI and no one will have to work… I think, no matter how cheap goods are, the corporations will find ways to make money and/or keep people poor. They say, “If the corporations do that, people will rise up and make them.” I say, “Are you actually sure about that? We let corporations do all kinds of other nasty things without repercussions…”

The worrying thing is it erodes faith in reality beyond what can be directly experienced. “I can’t trust anything I’m told anymore because photos and organizations are compromised.” And all orgs are going to drift towards using the best weapon they have to change minds, which is AI generated images. It’s the best tool, and if the other guys use it and you don’t then you’re behind in the arms race.

No. Because there’s actual photos of Trump saluting North Korean generals, posing with Epstein, and more. By spreading fake photographs we’re giving them cover to claim legitimate pictures as being faked.

And even if they knew about the AI mistakes, like hands and such, all those Facebook people do is look at the pic, give a 👍, maybe repost or comment. They won’t see those things because they never look too closely at anything they consume.

You can usually tell it’s AI by looking at the hands. Trump’s are obviously way too large for this to be a real picture.

I love the irony. Is this fake? Even if it’s fake, it could have happened. It would have happened. Trump wishes it had happened. Trump wouldn’t know whether it actually happened, but only whether he wanted it to have happened.

I hear a lot of people saying, very good people, very tough people, saying that it happened. They are saying it very strongly. I don’t know. They are saying it, I don’t know.

North Korea, you know folks say, folks say, oh North Korea, but let me tell you folks Kim is lovely, and he’s a big fan so we love him. And people are saying North Korea, folks let me tell you, let me just say, the North Korean people are lovely. Beautiful country, nobody even needs to vote folks, how nice is that

The photo of him saluting the N. Korean general is real. We don’t even need to fabricate this kind of material. If we are going to fabricate it, Trump’s service should be more explicit and x-rated.

I like the idea of fabricating it specifically to use on Twitter since Elon is being a piece of shit about it all.
