So, brought on by this thread:
https://hexbear.net/post/8986189?scrollToComments=false
And @EdlritchEconomics@hexbear.net pointing out it's a AI image; here is a whole thing.
So I think the general consensus is AI slop bad and we dont want it in this town.
AI slop is now a bit tricky and I wouldnt blame someone for being tricked and posting slop as if it were real because they were themselves mislead. I dont blame em, scrutinizing every image is an exhausting ordeal.
So my proposal, is that any AI slop presented as true should be removed. Posting AI slop to comment on AI slop seems fine and honest. I dont think anyone posting AI slop and presenting it as real should face consequences unless there is evidence of doing it on purpose but we cant have robot pictures pretending to be real pictures. We need Blade Runners.
I dunno if a task force or an if you see something say something method is best, but it's just gonna get harder to spot for a while until the whole thing turns into a fun house mirror, so it seems worth getting in front of. You shouldn't have to scroll the comments to find out a posted image is AI and I would prefer no image posted here be AI unless it's meant to comment on that image as an AI image, illustrating a point about a slop image is one thing but if an image is AI I think it should just be removed but ill accept a tag being needed.
I picked Chat cause I dunno if anyone uses Feedback nowadays.
This also just made me think of photoshopping pictures to make them look like AI for plausible deniability/for a bit
I fully agree, but also AI is hard for some people to spot, so if we do find out something is AI try not to just assume the poster is being deceptive unless they obviously are. Just be politely be like "Sorry dude I think this is AI"
I agree and thought I made it clear in my original post. Maybe I didnt. But yeah, I dont consider it a punishable offense, mistakes are easy to make and are just gonna get easier. But I think it should still be politely removed or at least need to be marked as such. I think maybe some nerds who are really good at it might need to squad up and be responsible for having a good look at images, or teach other users how to do so themselves etc. I dont wanna blame anyone for being tricked, but we cant let trickery spread either. No shame in being tricked by something designed to trick you with resources beyond your belief at its back, but we gotta sus it out for that very reason. Ya gotta SUS SUS SUS SUS SUS OUT suspect literal device. I'm not always gonna zoom in and enhance but I think it would make sense for some folks who are good at it to do so and have greater convenience in doing it if possible.
Nah you probably did I just suck at communication sometimes
Same, that was a 'thought I made it clear' of self doubt, not derision
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
I think this is where any claim to authorship/creation is what should actually be a bannable offense. Anything else (getting snookered by someone else's slop) should be given grace, but if a hexbear poster creates slop and is unwilling to claim it as AI generated, that's a bannable offense imo.
For sure. Im more concerned about making sure the posts by people who are snookered dont sit around long. It's more fake news that im concerned about thsn authorship. Although I do agree with your policy idea and is a worthy offshoot to discuss if there even is one to be had. Claiming to have ceeated something which is AI slop is absolutely in ban range as far as im concerned as well. I figured this topic would broaden amd welcome it, there are probably a lot of different angles to consider.
Absolutely
