I'm so tired.

@pheonix I wish I could find the words to properly express to the people who keep sending me AI slop, how incredibly dull I find such content. No I don't care about your conversation with Chat-GPT yesterday, a clanker's opinion is meaningless.

@Huntn00 @hugoestr @pheonix There is the European AI Act. Question is whether anybody will enforce it...

[crazyeddie@mastodon.social]

@pheonix "Somebody please normalize auto-tagging of AI generated content across all formats - text, images and code so I can blanket ban them from my personal computer."

I guess I could maybe come up with an AI for that. Don't have a lot of experience doing that, but it seems like it doesn't take much. All I have to do is say it does the thing, right?

[crazyeddie@mastodon.social]

@hugoestr @pheonix Oh, but you will. You will read it, and then you'll realize, and then you will be bothered.

@pheonix ...but it's FUN to misuse AI to make trump look ridiculous, far more so than my actual talents could achieve.

Making trump look ridiculous is a worthwhile cause. It was my absurd brain that came up with the idea; AI just moved some electrons around.

@pheonix I am a law school TA and it actually warms my heart to see a typo because there’s humanity behind it. Infinitely more forgivable than hallucinated case law

@pheonix I'm so tired of seeing AI slop images on LinkedIn and the like, especially professionals I used to look up to using this constantly... it's annoying and shows lack of creativity and care.

Sure-- and AI sports get even better because with AI you can re-write the laws of physics. No high-jump is too high. No fastball is too fast. I mean just think if it's exciting to see a pitcher throw a 100 MPH fastball, how much more exciting it would be if it were a 500 MPH fastball?

@pheonix Right? I am so ready for a human only internet.

[brucemirken@mas.to]

@pheonix Amen!!!

@the_turtle I think though- this is hard to explain but I think there might be something fundamentally different in the way some of our brains are processing generated information. "Uncanny Valley" is generally used as shorthand, but doesn't convey the actual, physical fatigue effect, even when used for humor. The synthetic graphics have humor, but are still tiring to look at. The same as reading synthetically composed text. I don't really have the vocabulary to articulate it though. @pheonix

[chillicampari@layer8.space]

@the_turtle I don't know exactly what it is, and it's different than something like fiction written by a person, or a funny photoshop.

Edit to add- it might go along with the "ultra-processed food" idea that @christianrickert mentioned upthread.
