16:38 this is what ive noticed... when I look at certain AI images via phone i cant recognize them as AI, but via PC i can. most people use phones and the size of phone screen prevents you from seeing small details, noise, inconsistencies .
As an artist (both traditional and digital) I can usually tell either way. Not every piece is so clear but a lot of AI art always has a *feeling* to it. It feels fake. Like not just staged, literally fake. I don’t know how to describe it. It’s like something fantastical Photoshopped well, it’s realistic but it feels off
@@DeathnoteBBFrom what I have noticed, AI has a pattern of doing things, it's almost like an art style. If you have good pattern recognition then you will know what is real and what isn't.
@@DeathnoteBB It depends in what style generator generates image. there are some who generates fairly photorealistic images and in lowwer quality in small image they look real. sometimes you can tell because human or object proportions are so off.

Whenever I see an obviously AI generated photo or video on social media, I call it out in the comments. Unfortunately, most people are stupid. It's also worth mentioning that a whole lot of comments on those posts were written by bots. It's not quite Dead Internet Theory yet, but there's a TON of automated content on the internet.

Since you might be open to the idea check this out let's say you look on the news right now and you see that a woman in Mississippi cut her child's head off and kicked it across the street like a soccer ball. Now that could be 100% completely made up and you were just accept it hook line and sinker because you don't know anybody that knows her or lives in that area and you have no reason to go investigate it further and track down her birth certificate to prove that she's even a real person. My point is that I believe they've been just completely making up half the stuff on the news just making it up at a whole cloth for decades.
yeah- i saw a lady commenting under an AI photo. i replied and let her know. she was pretty hostile and said she didn’t care. i just wanted to be helpful lol
@@sansfucksI think most news stories have enough supporting evidence and enough other platforms cover them for most people to realize what is and isn't real, but things like these AI tools, this could become a future issue very easily if not regulated or held accountable.
@memeju1ce Many people meet being proven wrong with hostility, in the attempt to save themselves from looking dumb. Social media with time made this immensely worse. These people don't care any longer if it's real or not. All they care is being indulged into thinking their opinions are "the only ones that matter", and they are openly hostile to anybody even remotely trying to challenge it.
wow! an actually insightful and original analysis of generated imagery’s affect on culture. not just the economy or workforce. incredibly well done, dude. very well edited, written, and presented. you did great research and a great job making your points. This is the kind of analysis youtube needs more of. Very interesting and thoughtful. Well done :)
Probably because the image was obviously not Donald Trump and obviously AI generated which doesn't jive with the title of the video which would have necessitated an image that everyone thought was real and would have thus been shocked to hear that it isn't and then click the video so yeah that's why
Sometimes it feels like a lot of people have something important missing in their brains. I immediately recognize those images as clearly being fake. While I am an artist, and a big part of that is learning to absorb a ton of image details very quickly, I feel like it should at the very least trigger our ability to sense uncanny when there's a person in the background with their hand melding into other objects, or a body with no limbs. To me, all of the images are immediately recognizably AI, whether it's due to glaring anatomical issues, photography inconsistency, style inconsistency, or structural/object inconsistency.
Good for you. Unfortunately not everyone is trained to analyze images, people see something weird and assume it's something wrong with the camera or lighting.
It’s because in this stage of AI it’s easy to see. That may change. If you know how genAI image creation works then you will see it. For now. They start with static and change pixel for pixel until it matches an array of integers as close as possible. That’s why these images have this hazy or noisy look over them. There will come a time that this isn’t as easy to spot unfortunately.
@@RustOnWheels Oh, I'm not saying it won't improve, though I don't think stable diffusion will get us there. It's always a mix of several different styles in 1 image.
They need a massive cease-and-desist on generating photorealistic pictures. For a while, Hive Moderation can help. I've yet to have it mark a known real picture, or known genuine art piece as AI generated, but it has positively identified every image I've ever suspected is AI generated. Unfortunately, this arms race will eventually mean Hive Moderation can't detect it.
Should be ban kitchen knives and lock up the manufacturers because some people use them to murder? This cat is out of the bag and it ain’t going back in. What we actually need to do is find a way to embed information into these images where people can verify if they’re AI generated or not.
The "even from a smartphone" caveat is a little misleading. The phone is not doing any work. In fact, the vast majority of people "creating" things with AI such as ChatGPT or Midjourney are not doing ANY work... and neither is their computer. The host server for CGPT or midjourney, or whatever else AI was used is doing all the work. The software the user engages with has no capability to do anything beyond communicating with the API which in turn sends your request to the AI host server. You can think of the API as being a waiter, the AI server is a chef and you are just a customer at the restaurant. The only problem is, at the AI restaurant all the food is made from bits and scraps taken from the trash, or more often, stolen from somewhere else. people who claim to "create" using AI generative software remind me a LOT of steamed hams.. its the same thing in principal ;3 "ill buy fast food and pass it off as my own cooking!" "in 2024 we're almost at a point where it's impossible to tell what's real anymore" is flatly wrong, that is subjective and too broad of an umbrella. don't assume the limits of other people's capabilities based on your own. AI images, no matter how "realistic" are pretty obviously fake, especially to anyone who has experience with photography, cinematography, or AI image generation. Not only are there tons of 'tells' that the human eye can easily recognise, AI images can't fool your computer. Using the same methods these AI services utilize to steal data online and recreate it in a different form, you can easily make software that confirms real from fake images. In short, AI cannot replicate reality, even in still image form, and most people can see the difference without any training. Furthermore, AI generative software is an oroborous. The corporations running these AI services steal data en mass from the internet as training weights, in an unfiltered and usually unsupervised manner. As such, the AI continuously adds AI generated images to the training data, ensuring that over time, the AI will get worse and worse. Think of play-doh... you mix all the colours together and you get a grey blob. That is the final evolution of AI image generation.
i really dont like to click on videos with few views particularly because of AI and the low effort mass produced videos, im glad i clicked this time great work
Really? I thought it was weird as hell because I feel like he isn't addressing the viewer. It's funny how different ppl see things like that differently
The further it goes, the more the importance of "cozy web" becomes. Once public internet becomes on the vast majority bots programmed to exploit you, we will be forced more and more to rely on private environments of trusted users, being very cautious of who we would let in. The more AI advances, the faster the internet will become a hostile environment to humans, who will be relegated in corners as the only way to have a somewhat healthy experience.
Nothing is completely AI generated. AI requires power and a beefy computer rig. This always annoys me when people act like AI is like The Lawnmower Man just roaming free across the web. It's only people running it. Always was, always will be.
Browsing the Internet and not using social media, other than UA-cam, of course because here I am, is kind of like being at a party and being the only sober one.
I'm in the same boat as you. I only use UA-cam, never tried Twitter, stopped Facebook after I graduated high school, had a MySpace in middle school But i tend to stay away from social media because it drives me nuts. I mean it's pathetic how willing these people are to accept what they see without vetting the information. The Trump era just killed the Internet for me, it was nonstop fantasy land and manipulation of events. It was like a nightmare, just constant Trump trump trump, nobody seemed to grasp just what he was doing and were more than willing to accept him and his lies
The first rule of the internet is. Dont believe everything you read or see on it. Try to find at least three different sources of information on a search. Usually the oldest compared with the most recent information, can help with being the most useful.
Thank you for the video. As an 8th grade US History teacher. We had added an unit to teach students how to verify sources. We also limited them to only approve site.
He could improve it by being a little bit more dynamic with your delivery. Don't be fake but just interject a little bit more energy and essence into it it's a very very dry
The thing with actual pictures taken with cameras. It’s captures the light bouncing of an object. It’s a time capsule the captures a moment in time in the universe. It literally captures reality. AI can’t do that but now it will be indistinguishable

@@nullbyt nah i feel its different when humans do it. We have intent and understanding at a much higher degree. When you ask the machine to make something it doesnt really understand what its doing, it doesnt make the same creative decisions and application of what its learned. It just seeks to replicate and reproduce its learned knowledge in new ways that generate the highest positive responses.
While this will obviously change, pretty much every one of the model-generated images you have shown, anyone paying attention can recognize. For those of us who have, indeed, been paying attention, it is absolutely obnoxious the way people have started using model-generated images in their videos and articles. We can almost always tell.
This is really good dude like woah and you’re such a small channel - not for long! Subbed! Can’t wait for a few years when I can tell my friends I discovered max werner when he only had 10k
I think it's the best thing ever, one day nothing will be believable so news will not be watched and humans will get back to a calmer more local mindset
why can't we make a format for people to make statements and arguments using those statements with evidence links attached. Where people can agree, disagree, disagree with the structure, and withhold position on each statement, and similar reactions to the evidence. The evidence link has statements that are meant to take points from the evidence and organize them in statement form. People can agree that it is what the evidence is saying, disagree, ect... Then people can give their position on the evidence on whether or not it is a reliable piece of evidence. Then in statements when there is a term, the definition of that term can be made to clarify. So for instance Atheist has different definitions depending on the person, so the definition page allows users to change the word used for that definition if they have a different term for that definition.
Pictures of Donald Trump touching other people gives me such a disgusted feeling. I can't fathom that man putting hands on anyone and have it not be weird as fuck.
Another thing about this is it is EXHAUSTING to always be vigilant looking out for AI disinformation, and it's entirely possible to mistake something real/human created for something AI generated. There have been artists accused of using AI when in actuality the AI was likely trained on their art without their permission.
great video. it really doesnt help that AI is something the laziest and most unintelligent of people with the least amount of integrity, artistic or otherwise, like to use and support. the kind of people in support of open and rampant AI are also the kind of people willing to do anything to shortcut to their goals, despite how immoral it is. theyre the kind of people who will toss their friend out the window for 1,000,000 in all frankness. when you give lazy, stupid and immoral people a tool like this, they will always use it for their own narcissistic and selfish tendencies. thats why generative AIs most profitable uses so far have been using it to generate nonconsensual and illegal porn, extremist propaganda, and fake content farms. the kind of people to take the cheap and easy way are always shitty people, and theyre always the first to refuse responsibility and deny consequences to their actions. i will be the first to say AI has its place, and the first to say its not in the public hands. AI needs to have a regulatory framework BEFORE it continues to expand. its not something we can afford to sit back and make rules on based on the consequences. its like trying to make murder illegal after someone died: its useless if it cant be put into action before a crime is committed.
All pictures are now as legitimate as a painting. The canvas now a screen, the paint now pixels, the emotion it evokes real, the scene, fake, even when "authentic". My biggest concern is how video, photo, and even audio evidence can just be dismissed now, as potentially faked.
When I was coming up, we took pictures at family gatherings and during holidays or time of just having fun in life. And we would look back at those pictures in our photos albums and remember those times we had. We would go back to those times and laugh and get a little of the memories or moments that we lived back then. And for a brief moment we would relive that moment in time. That’s what pictures did for us in my time. Now I don’t know what is real and not real
Really introspective video! I think that the general availability of these to the masses definitely was the major issue of the fast growth of AI generated content. We could make international rules to restrict usage and production of this kind of content, but yeah, could ae make it faster than the production of more content?
@@abiliv-lf9tz it's giving not knowing reality and worrying about someone else's views sounds like bot syndrome to me mind your own business the fact that you just said that proves we're all main characters in our own story cause who is going to believe in you if you don't

Excellent video, it should have at least 10x the views if not 100x. People need to get wise to this stuff quick or doom themselves to getting duped into believing who knows what.
The Iwo Jima picture didn't require a lot of people. I met someone who was there. They put it up the same day. It wasn't some grand conspiracy. Though it is a distorted image of what happened.
The hands. Nobody ever pays attention to the hands. AI generated images always screw up the hands. There are so many ways to see through AI generated content, but for some reason, so many people are blind to these fabrications. It frieghtens me that even my parents cannot spot the tells of Ai images and voices.
Lifes major problem is the square cube law that regulates removal of waste heat in systems. Sentience's major problem is the (insert term here) where removal information waste heat in systems. We are on the bleeding edge of life. We are meat monkies. We are going to fail.
Welcome to the epistemic apocalypse. It's like the darkest dystopian sci-fi stories of the recent past, only, the sun still shines, and you can still get a decent meal.
On the flip side, when someone is "caught on camera" (or audio) committing crime, or some other reprehensible act, they'll swear that it's A I. generated... and i wonder what innocent person will be "found guilty by a jury of their peers" because an A.I. video was used as evidence in a trial, because some clever person or group planted "surveillance footage at the scene of the crime" complete with meta data, time stamps etc... or at least it could be a good reboot of the Sandra Bullock movie "The Net" from1995

yeah- i saw a lady commenting under an AI photo. i replied and let her know. she was pretty hostile and said she didn’t care. i just wanted to be helpful lol
Twitter is the true dead internet theory as its 75% bots other sociall medias have varying levels but never brike 50%.
@@sansfucksI think most news stories have enough supporting evidence and enough other platforms cover them for most people to realize what is and isn't real, but things like these AI tools, this could become a future issue very easily if not regulated or held accountable.
@memeju1ce Many people meet being proven wrong with hostility, in the attempt to save themselves from looking dumb. Social media with time made this immensely worse.
These people don't care any longer if it's real or not. All they care is being indulged into thinking their opinions are "the only ones that matter", and they are openly hostile to anybody even remotely trying to challenge it.
Definitely concerned about this. Especially since we are getting closer and closer to actually living idiocracy every day.
Good point but its also important to remember Idiocracy is mildly about eugenics
wow! an actually insightful and original analysis of generated imagery’s affect on culture. not just the economy or workforce.
incredibly well done, dude. very well edited, written, and presented.
you did great research and a great job making your points.
This is the kind of analysis youtube needs more of. Very interesting and thoughtful. Well done :)
Only 150 views?! I thought this was from a well established channel, great content keep it up!
recommendation sent me here
Gotta start somewhere, it's slowly starting to pop off
Probably because the image was obviously not Donald Trump and obviously AI generated which doesn't jive with the title of the video which would have necessitated an image that everyone thought was real and would have thus been shocked to hear that it isn't and then click the video so yeah that's why
At only 10.3k subs?
Anyway it now has over 17k views.
Because he is highly biased
Sometimes it feels like a lot of people have something important missing in their brains. I immediately recognize those images as clearly being fake.
While I am an artist, and a big part of that is learning to absorb a ton of image details very quickly, I feel like it should at the very least trigger our ability to sense uncanny when there's a person in the background with their hand melding into other objects, or a body with no limbs. To me, all of the images are immediately recognizably AI, whether it's due to glaring anatomical issues, photography inconsistency, style inconsistency, or structural/object inconsistency.
When scrolling online and not fully engaged. Most just aren't thinking to analyse.
And as you said. Being into art or photography will give an edge
Good for you. Unfortunately not everyone is trained to analyze images, people see something weird and assume it's something wrong with the camera or lighting.
I grew up very creative so I can track discrepancies people say it’s hard but if you know what your looking for it’s easy
It’s because in this stage of AI it’s easy to see. That may change.
If you know how genAI image creation works then you will see it. For now.
They start with static and change pixel for pixel until it matches an array of integers as close as possible. That’s why these images have this hazy or noisy look over them.
There will come a time that this isn’t as easy to spot unfortunately.
@@RustOnWheels Oh, I'm not saying it won't improve, though I don't think stable diffusion will get us there. It's always a mix of several different styles in 1 image.
what can we do about it? shutdown the machine's server farms, dissolve the tech companies, and jail the tech bros.
They need a massive cease-and-desist on generating photorealistic pictures.
For a while, Hive Moderation can help. I've yet to have it mark a known real picture, or known genuine art piece as AI generated, but it has positively identified every image I've ever suspected is AI generated. Unfortunately, this arms race will eventually mean Hive Moderation can't detect it.
That's sound a little to radical, it's like punishing someone for a dangerous invention instead of the people who use it
Probably use AI to detect AI images and flag them automatically to let people know.
Okay, but, we need to be realistic here. This logic is as imaginative as suggesting “just snap it all away with a finger”
Should be ban kitchen knives and lock up the manufacturers because some people use them to murder?
This cat is out of the bag and it ain’t going back in.
What we actually need to do is find a way to embed information into these images where people can verify if they’re AI generated or not.
AI fingers are the creepiest thing out currently.
Like .. *wtf!?*
The "even from a smartphone" caveat is a little misleading. The phone is not doing any work.
In fact, the vast majority of people "creating" things with AI such as ChatGPT or Midjourney are not doing ANY work... and neither is their computer. The host server for CGPT or midjourney, or whatever else AI was used is doing all the work. The software the user engages with has no capability to do anything beyond communicating with the API which in turn sends your request to the AI host server. You can think of the API as being a waiter, the AI server is a chef and you are just a customer at the restaurant. The only problem is, at the AI restaurant all the food is made from bits and scraps taken from the trash, or more often, stolen from somewhere else.
people who claim to "create" using AI generative software remind me a LOT of steamed hams.. its the same thing in principal ;3
"ill buy fast food and pass it off as my own cooking!"
"in 2024 we're almost at a point where it's impossible to tell what's real anymore" is flatly wrong, that is subjective and too broad of an umbrella. don't assume the limits of other people's capabilities based on your own. AI images, no matter how "realistic" are pretty obviously fake, especially to anyone who has experience with photography, cinematography, or AI image generation. Not only are there tons of 'tells' that the human eye can easily recognise, AI images can't fool your computer. Using the same methods these AI services utilize to steal data online and recreate it in a different form, you can easily make software that confirms real from fake images.
In short, AI cannot replicate reality, even in still image form, and most people can see the difference without any training. Furthermore, AI generative software is an oroborous. The corporations running these AI services steal data en mass from the internet as training weights, in an unfiltered and usually unsupervised manner. As such, the AI continuously adds AI generated images to the training data, ensuring that over time, the AI will get worse and worse. Think of play-doh... you mix all the colours together and you get a grey blob. That is the final evolution of AI image generation.
wait and see...
@@goldensloth7 I don't have to wait, it's already begun. Look it up
@@goldensloth7 That's funny, my reply got deleted! I don't have to "wait and see" because it is already happening. Look into it further.
aw hell yeah, he got the Ground News link and everything
i really dont like to click on videos with few views particularly because of AI and the low effort mass produced videos, im glad i clicked this time
great work
The fact you took multiple angles of you talking is such an amazing little touch
Really? I thought it was weird as hell because I feel like he isn't addressing the viewer. It's funny how different ppl see things like that differently
The further it goes, the more the importance of "cozy web" becomes. Once public internet becomes on the vast majority bots programmed to exploit you, we will be forced more and more to rely on private environments of trusted users, being very cautious of who we would let in.
The more AI advances, the faster the internet will become a hostile environment to humans, who will be relegated in corners as the only way to have a somewhat healthy experience.
Nothing is completely AI generated. AI requires power and a beefy computer rig. This always annoys me when people act like AI is like The Lawnmower Man just roaming free across the web. It's only people running it. Always was, always will be.
Browsing the Internet and not using social media, other than UA-cam, of course because here I am, is kind of like being at a party and being the only sober one.
I'm in the same boat as you. I only use UA-cam, never tried Twitter, stopped Facebook after I graduated high school, had a MySpace in middle school But i tend to stay away from social media because it drives me nuts. I mean it's pathetic how willing these people are to accept what they see without vetting the information. The Trump era just killed the Internet for me, it was nonstop fantasy land and manipulation of events. It was like a nightmare, just constant Trump trump trump, nobody seemed to grasp just what he was doing and were more than willing to accept him and his lies
@@sea_triscuit7980 you, I could be friends with. We’re internet twins
I only use UA-cam yet I can't avoid the drama on the other platforms it's funny 💀
The first rule of the internet is. Dont believe everything you read or see on it.
Try to find at least three different sources of information on a search. Usually the oldest compared with the most recent information, can help with being the most useful.
how is this so underrated wtf, the production value of this is amazing!!
Thank you for the video. As an 8th grade US History teacher. We had added an unit to teach students how to verify sources. We also limited them to only approve site.
above everything it's depressing...
Commenting for engagement, so confused why this video has such low views!
Smart and well written ,nice work I hope more people find their way to this video
He could improve it by being a little bit more dynamic with your delivery. Don't be fake but just interject a little bit more energy and essence into it it's a very very dry
We should question everything. And be really suspicious if a piece makes you feel afraid, angry etc.
The thing with actual pictures taken with cameras. It’s captures the light bouncing of an object. It’s a time capsule the captures a moment in time in the universe. It literally captures reality. AI can’t do that but now it will be indistinguishable
Just watched a thing about deepfake harassment in Korea. A futuristic sci-fi dystopian horror drama if ever I've heard of one.

Didn't say ai generated. It's an epidemic of people face swapping classmates, teachers, girls from around, onto porn clips. Not too difficult.
All AI does is takes someone else's work and mashes together with, once again, SOMEONE ELSE's work. That is not "ai generated". It's ai mixed.
That's all humans do as well. We create based on our perception of reality and the things we've seen.
That doesn’t really do much to refute his point.
Wasn't trying to argue or refute just provide another point of view.
@@nullbyt nah i feel its different when humans do it. We have intent and understanding at a much higher degree. When you ask the machine to make something it doesnt really understand what its doing, it doesnt make the same creative decisions and application of what its learned. It just seeks to replicate and reproduce its learned knowledge in new ways that generate the highest positive responses.
We have subtly passed from the age of information into the age of disinformation.
I am already at the point that I always look at the hands of an image when I watch UA-cam 😂
bro these videos are vox level! found u on my yt fyp btw
A family photo.
"Everybody come over here. Smile!"
How is that different?
While this will obviously change, pretty much every one of the model-generated images you have shown, anyone paying attention can recognize.
For those of us who have, indeed, been paying attention, it is absolutely obnoxious the way people have started using model-generated images in their videos and articles.
We can almost always tell.
This is really good dude like woah and you’re such a small channel - not for long! Subbed! Can’t wait for a few years when I can tell my friends I discovered max werner when he only had 10k
This needs an existential trigger warning 😂

Great job on this.
Pictures have never been trustworthy, and people are only now realizing it.
Beautiful soundtrack for this video
Some of us can tell it’s Ai immediately.. some can’t
Breaux, was this just one long ground news commercial?
I think it's the best thing ever, one day nothing will be believable so news will not be watched and humans will get back to a calmer more local mindset
Or we go in the opposite direction and just get more brain rot😢
@@CC-os6dfthat’s what is likely to happen. People are never going to have a “calm” mindset
And humanity will isolate itself to the point of being unable to cooperate globally when the need arrises.
@@CC-os6df Unfortunately, this is more likely.
why can't we make a format for people to make statements and arguments using those statements with evidence links attached. Where people can agree, disagree, disagree with the structure, and withhold position on each statement, and similar reactions to the evidence. The evidence link has statements that are meant to take points from the evidence and organize them in statement form. People can agree that it is what the evidence is saying, disagree, ect... Then people can give their position on the evidence on whether or not it is a reliable piece of evidence. Then in statements when there is a term, the definition of that term can be made to clarify. So for instance Atheist has different definitions depending on the person, so the definition page allows users to change the word used for that definition if they have a different term for that definition.
Pictures of Donald Trump touching other people gives me such a disgusted feeling. I can't fathom that man putting hands on anyone and have it not be weird as fuck.
You live a pretty sheltered life don't you?
Very interesting video my friend!
Great video, now subscribed! Thank you for exploring this topic.

Keep posting these informative videos.
Another thing about this is it is EXHAUSTING to always be vigilant looking out for AI disinformation, and it's entirely possible to mistake something real/human created for something AI generated. There have been artists accused of using AI when in actuality the AI was likely trained on their art without their permission.
Look at the fingers.
just found your channel man high quality content ty
we're so fucked
great video. it really doesnt help that AI is something the laziest and most unintelligent of people with the least amount of integrity, artistic or otherwise, like to use and support. the kind of people in support of open and rampant AI are also the kind of people willing to do anything to shortcut to their goals, despite how immoral it is. theyre the kind of people who will toss their friend out the window for 1,000,000 in all frankness. when you give lazy, stupid and immoral people a tool like this, they will always use it for their own narcissistic and selfish tendencies. thats why generative AIs most profitable uses so far have been using it to generate nonconsensual and illegal porn, extremist propaganda, and fake content farms. the kind of people to take the cheap and easy way are always shitty people, and theyre always the first to refuse responsibility and deny consequences to their actions. i will be the first to say AI has its place, and the first to say its not in the public hands. AI needs to have a regulatory framework BEFORE it continues to expand. its not something we can afford to sit back and make rules on based on the consequences. its like trying to make murder illegal after someone died: its useless if it cant be put into action before a crime is committed.
How does this video not have more views? I’m so so impressed
All pictures are now as legitimate as a painting. The canvas now a screen, the paint now pixels, the emotion it evokes real, the scene, fake, even when "authentic".
My biggest concern is how video, photo, and even audio evidence can just be dismissed now, as potentially faked.
When I was coming up, we took pictures at family gatherings and during holidays or time of just having fun in life. And we would look back at those pictures in our photos albums and remember those times we had. We would go back to those times and laugh and get a little of the memories or moments that we lived back then. And for a brief moment we would relive that moment in time. That’s what pictures did for us in my time. Now I don’t know what is real and not real
Really introspective video! I think that the general availability of these to the masses definitely was the major issue of the fast growth of AI generated content. We could make international rules to restrict usage and production of this kind of content, but yeah, could ae make it faster than the production of more content?
This is so fascinating and high quality. Hope you get more attention
Damn this planet just full of ai bots

@@abiliv-lf9tz it's giving not knowing reality and worrying about someone else's views sounds like bot syndrome to me mind your own business the fact that you just said that proves we're all main characters in our own story cause who is going to believe in you if you don't
It should be possible to create a defensive ai, one that protects you or at least informs you when youre looking at ai created content, right?
Thankfully some people are developing that sort of thing but I don't know if it will be enough
Ironically that will only accelerate how much better it can get for people without the tools

Wait until they find out about photo editing. Imagine a world where only the government approved journalists were licensed to broadcast their reports. Wouldn’t that be different and new?
Luckily it doesn’t happen in the US. Look at FOX; they had a license to lie.

The hands. Nobody ever pays attention to the hands. AI generated images always screw up the hands.

Welcome to the epistemic apocalypse. It's like the darkest dystopian sci-fi stories of the recent past, only, the sun still shines, and you can still get a decent meal.
On the flip side, when someone is "caught on camera" (or audio) committing crime, or some other reprehensible act, they'll swear that it's A I. generated... and i wonder what innocent person will be "found guilty by a jury of their peers" because an A.I. video was used as evidence in a trial, because some clever person or group planted "surveillance footage at the scene of the crime" complete with meta data, time stamps etc... or at least it could be a good reboot of the Sandra Bullock movie "The Net" from1995
