Or just photoshopped. Certainly doesn't look handwritten ...

Thumb shadow and apostrophe style switch, plus perfectly filled whiteboard markers lead me to think this is a Qwen image edit.

They trained their model on text added to images, so it often pops above background stuff.

Plus this is an uncommonly shaped whiteboard marker to get this rounded style, and there are no lift marks.

it is AI generated.

Also ironic is that none of the listed automations require machine learning and there's been hard coded technology for them for a while.

There's nowhere that the opera house and Harbor bridge line up like that without something else being in frame.

So here’s the thing… In between the land of “shitty service jobs” and the land of “fully automated luxury” lies the vast desert of “reverse-centaurs”.

Right now, when “AI” takes over 60% of a job, that remaining 40% becomes a brutal dehumanizing gauntlet: the “human-in-the-loop” becomes a peripheral for the computer, manipulated into working at the speed that the computer prefers, like Lucy in the chocolate factory, until they’re used up and replaced. Think Amazon warehouse pickers or drivers.

Part of the problem is that this exploitation is hidden from consumers. When we see a fellow laborer suffering horrible conditions in a public-facing service job, we’re much more likely to throw a fit than when they’re hidden behind a sleek UI.

With no guarantee that we’ll ever make it through to the other side of the desert, I’d be perfectly content to stay on this side of it.

THANK YOU SO FKIN MUCH.

AI is a new means of production. Our goal must be to sieze it, use it to improve the lives of all and improve its capabilities. Our goal should NOT be to fight the means of production itself.

U all remember when you queued to buy a train ticket from a fellow behind a counter, and someone came and woke you up in the middle of the ride so they could clip it?

So high quality human interaction, I miss it so much /s

That's what makes it a shitpost

His fingers look unnaturally long. Unless the white board is new, there are no signs of previous smudges. White boards are smooth surfaces, so we should also see reflections in there. The bridge as — pointed out in the thread — looks super wonky. There should be taller buildings as well as seen in the image below.

The reinforcing structure of the bridge in the back looks super wonky. Calling AI with certainty

Sadly yes.

Lots of basic algorithms are now called AI

It's like youtube videos, apparently people don't understand what it is about if there isn't a big face in it.

Humans can be paid without slowing down my grocery shopping. Just pay them to stay home and let me efficiently pay for my food and go.

I like the idea of self checkout. The practical reality is often quite bad ... I'd rather deal with a cashier (cashiers in my country rarely do small talk, it's a very rote interaction) than having to wait for an employee to deal with the self checkout's weird issues.

That would be true if by utilizing the staffing cuts, they increased wages or lowered costs but instead they just pocket the profits.

Relaxed? They pace back and forth like they're awaiting a jury verdict.

It’s an AI generated anti AI image. It’s set in Sydney Harbour and it’s so Shit I can smell it here in Gosford

I want people available for assistance, sure, because automation needs a backup. But needing staff for a human connection is offloading their need to socialize onto staff.

I don't want to interact with AI, but I also don't want to interact with people.
