“This flood of low-quality and fake content from AI is particularly affecting minor languages. AI acts as a type of hyper machine translation. These minor languages then become overwhelmed by AI translations and other fake AI content.”

Reading this with Danish-speaking eyes, I realised that this problem had never occurred to me. Hvor dejligt. A whole new consequence of contemporary AI to dislike.

Algorithmen auf Streife: Bremens Straßenbahnen werden zur KI-Überwachungszone

Mit #AI-Watch führt die #BSAG eine Echtzeit-Analyse von Fahrgästen ein. Was als Sicherheitsgewinn verkauft wird, markiert eine neue Stufe der #Videoüberwachung….

Please expect more and more of this from our shitty media, as AI and climate change makes potable water impossible to afford.

(I do not know if this is real or satire, and am having an increasingly hard time determining the difference between the two)

Raising a child uses energy too…. says #SamAltman.

When you start comparing feeding babies to data centers, you’re not making an “intelligent” analogy, you’re revealing a worldview as tech leader where humanity is measured in megawatts and inefficiencies…

Studie: Wenn KI nicht weniger, sondern mehr Arbeit macht

Laut einer US-Studie entlastet Künstliche Intelligenz Arbeitnehmer nicht, sondern kann zu Mehrarbeit und nachlassender Effizienz führen. Ein deutscher Forscher macht ähnliche Beobachtungen. Von Frank Bäumer.

One of these photos is AI generated using the Z-Image Turbo model (running on local hardware), and the other is a real photo taken in Minnesota.

I've placed the answer in the alt text.

If you'd asked me which one was the generated image, I'd have probably chosen the real one.

Maybe, MAYBE with meticulous, slow examination I could have figured it out. Or at least attributed a chance percentage of it being generated.

But man... we've really fucked ourselves, I think. This is just the state of it all TODAY. And that's just here at home on consumer hardware. And this isn't even the best, but where the hell else is there to go in terms of image fidelity for uses like this?

And it comes at the absolute worst time in US history, when video and photograph evidence is the most crucial...

I’m starting to notice that there’s an AI slop typeface. Or more accurately, lettering. A particular style of letters that prompted image generators gravitate to. Sans serif (serifs are hard). No stroke variation (easy to get wrong if you forget how typography evolved from writing). A little bit condensed. Quite naive and reminiscent of abandoned grotesque fonts from early the 1900s. Very rarely used in the real world. #ai #llm #typography

Disgusting. Frontex is building an ‘AI chatbot app’ to encourage repatriations

‚The Border Agency of the European Union, Frontex, is building a mobile application for individuals who are voluntarily or forcibly deported from Europe, as part of its EU Reintegration Programme (EURP).

The application will come equipped with an ‘AI chatbot’ feature, which allows deportees to learn about the available services within the program, such as the opening hours of the nearest return counseling centers, or the financial incentives offered to individuals who accept to travel back to their country of citizenship (given the relative lack of choice people face, some scholars prefer the term ‘self-deportation’)...‘

@fdroidorg #ImageToolbox gets #AI is correct. It is local and works if the phone is not providing compute, this new feature is not fun to use. However, #DeJPEG, #upscale, #colorization, #enhancement is now available. Background removing offers also more models for the #FLOSS version.
