Hey me too!

A “patty”? Like a hamburger patty? Seems like a strange thing to order and extremely American.

Looks like it’s fixed now.

Light brown aka tan.

For me it’s the Gunpowder Plot but probably only because it failed.

Enron is a pretty good one too, since it resulted in the collapse of one of these shitty megacorps.

Most conspiracies are just depressing shit though like the Reichstag fire and the Business Plot.

At least MK Ultra gave us some wild stories.

That’s like… one of my least favorite conspiracies. You have odd preferences.

Well, I was going to joke about “a chicken in every pot, a parking spot for every home”

But it turns out that that is basically what the original slogan was about completed with “…and a car in every backyard, to boot.“ Conflating progress and prosperity with car-centrism and businesss interests… turns out it’s been there the whole time.

Yeah but we need that good old-fashioned vigilance against Russian propaganda … now the same folks swallow it hook, line, and sinker.

Other disappointments when people didn’t flee from a lost election:

(He also said it in 2024 in reference to Harris… such a missed opportunity)

they think that people still live in the cold war era

Their target audience is boomers. Now if only they still had the Russophobia that they did back then…

I’m certainly not saying that the people under attack should be obligated to prove it in any way.

Just curious if the AI is in any way accurate or if it ends up just being generic naked bodies with a recognizable face. I’m guessing it’s the latter.

Hey whatever it takes to convince people.

I would say it’s not even that it’s “covert” but that it’s at least seemingly arbitrary.

All those other ones it’s clear what condition you may fulfill to get the discount or understand why you didn’t. This one is just a vague “the algorithm said so.”

It’s disgusting yes but I don’t see it as any different than the magazine-style clipping cut-and-paste. More expensive and worse for the environment I suppose,…

But none of the people involved in creating it care if it’s real, just as before, and the realism isn’t even the point. So it’s functionally identical.

You don’t need to tell that it’s real vs AI. If the objective is to create a picture of the person naked all you do is go “yeah that’s not what I like like naked” and move on.

There is no way other than random chance that the AI would know about a random scar, mole, or a million other details it will get wrong. And I expect that it will have that plasticky airbrushed look, but AI is getting better about that so maybe not.

Could be.

I don’t doubt that they do really look like naked people, but i doubt they actually look like the person they are supposed to portray.

In which case… back to square one, you’re putting someone’s head on the body of a different naked person.

I doubt it.

Someone should do side-by-side AI slop fake nudes compared to the real thing. I bet they get it wrong as much as they do everything else, i.e. constantly.

Why is this any scarier than pasting a photo of their head on a clipping from a porn magazine?

Number munchers.
