"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Wait what? What sense of truth? Do you know when fake photography started? Around 5 minutes after photography was invented. Now it has become even easier but no one should have ever thought "ah, it is in a photograph so it must be true". AI has nothing to do with that.
Not sure if I should bother with a coherent response here, but the advent of fakes that are convincing, can be done in video form, and do not require hours of professional skill to produce is really, really meaningful and not equivalent to any pre-existing technology.
