"Greta's octopus toy is antisemitic" - (countless writhing flesh limbs entity)

[–] StellarTabi@hexbear.net 34 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Unrelated, but I predict there will be more false accusations of AI generated news images than actual misinformation in the near future.

Love to live in the era of epistemic breakdown

They'll claim it, but it's actually still easy to determine if an image is AI generated with minimal effort.

Legitimate images will have a source and knowing the source will allow you to validate things like meta data and location/time the image was taken.

AI is really only useful for entirely synthetic images.

Average people don't care. Otherwise, Fox News would not exist.

That's a bit of a misanthropic viewpoint. Sure people will believe what they want, but AI images aren't going to convince anyone who wasn't already convinced, and they definitely will never serve as anything more than very temporary smokescreens that instantly betray the legitimacy of whoever uses them.

It's already that way, from what I can tell.

AI classifier models are garbage. Most of them are only particularly good at identifying images processed through a specific model's autoencoder, which if you don't specifically try to mask that (which is possible) they have a fairly high recall rate on. They have MASSIVE false positive rates though with a variety of known and unknown triggers, in particular I've seen a lot of images which upon closer inspection looked plausibly real if you consider how fucking awful postprocessing on some cameras can be.

And it's not even images that would make sense to AI generate that people are pulling this on. I would think that you would ~~pull the AI generated card on~~ AI generate propaganda images of something that is incredibly damning yet also hard to disprove. But most of the claims for "AI-generated" propaganda images I see are over things that don't really prove the claim the propagandist is trying to make, or that don't even show anything particularly abnormal. That's more than just falsely assuming something, that's just outright failing to understand how propaganda works in the first place which is a much more serious problem.

This from the Israeli state? Or did some apologist make it?

Looks like it's some online tourism site? https://livefromisrael.com/

Israel will have another enemy to deal with if Cthulhu hears about this.

[–] Hotspur@lemmy.ml 14 points 1 year ago (1 children)

This photo is doubly weird, because even as propaganda, it’s a troubling image—that many hands, all held up at that angle… reminds one of another historical set of events, and folks, that set of events, we don’t like those events, they’re very bad events.

[–] Fissionami@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 year ago

Ironically, out of all, they should've known the most about it

The top left one.

kelly False flag.

Fun fact: all Israeli flags are false flags

Damn, fascists can't even do AI art.

[–] Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net 13 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

God this is creepy. Like I know propaganda machines can and have done their work fine without AI, but we're entering an era where our capitalist overlords can just produce footage and images of whatever whatever they want to justify anything they want. Unionisers could be arrested for somerthing they never did. For example.

[–] Aryuproudomenowdaddy@hexbear.net 9 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I kinda feel like people skilled in photoshop have been able to create whatever they want to sway consent for government atrocities for a while now. Being able to manufacture believable video of the other decapitating babies and guzzling their blood is gonna be the real kicker. There's an Orville episode where the space fascists mention that generating videos of their political opponents doing and saying heinous shit is commonplace that I felt was prescient.

very stupid people trying to trick everyone with AI images is like toddlers who play hide and seek by putting a blanket over their head

[–] asg101@hexbear.net 11 points 1 year ago

How much did they have to pay for THAT support? Because their normal blackmail/anti-Semite accusation strategy probably doesn't work too well here.

[–] Sephitard9001@hexbear.net 11 points 1 year ago

No you see these were real but but but but but they used an AI to upscale them!!

[–] Kaisen@hexbear.net 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It Reminds me of that spooky, swirly Junji Ito manga where a bunch of people in that one house got fused together.

[–] Collatz_problem@hexbear.net 8 points 1 year ago

My fellow Americans. I ask you today, if we don't have people dying in the streets, how shall we appease Sheb-Teth, Devourer of Souls? Do we wish to stand with or against the Great Old Ones? I say embrace the madness today, embrace the madness tomorrow, embrace the madness forever. Hastur/Xotli 2024!

Those are noodles or fungi, and I will not be convinced otherwise.

If you told me that these arms all snaked around Isntrael and led back to Netanyahu as the source, I would believe you

Oh cool, the most traumatizing scene from Labyrinth
