AI image slop vs physiotherapy!

[futuristicrobert@infosec.exchange]

@cstross I can't help but wonder if an artist was asked to do images in GenAI and decided to do as little as possible for quality control, sabotaging the system as an art form.

@cstross Retrograde knee flexion/destruction is a common exercise!

[lumendecens@mastodon.ie]

@cstross Nothing to see here! Oddly, it is the placement of the hand that unnerves me more. Maybe the knee is so beyond the Pale.

[nicovel0@mastodon.social]

@retech @cstross in this image it’s the clock that tipped you off?

[mbirth@social.mbirth.uk]

@lumendecens @cstross And the left foot being attached right under the knee (if there even is one) doesn't bother you?

[lumendecens@mastodon.ie]

@mbirth @cstross now that you mention it...

[5tern1@corteximplant.com]

@cstross oh shit this is painful to look at and also the quality of the image probably would have gotten me otherwise

[uilebheist@polyglot.city]

@cstross What? She just rotated the right foot 180 degrees.
And shortened the left leg so the left foot is at the same distance from the body as the right knee.
What's not shown is the bone saw used to perform such surgery.
All absolutely normal, surely?

@cstross One wonders at the people who looked at that and determined that yes, THAT is the image we want representing us.

@cstross
Well, there's a reason that poor woman is seeking physiotherapy. I would too if I were in her situation.

[sarajw@front-end.social]

@lumendecens @cstross the unusually long arm of the patient with the hand reaching down to the knee, or the practitioner's hand on the pubic mound (or, bum, depending on which way round she is)?

[lumendecens@mastodon.ie]

@sarajw @cstross the latter for me

[softwaretheron@mas.to]

@cstross
The leg bone's connected to the - oh, wait...

(Also, that physio's right hand is placed in a lawsuit-inducing fashion.)

[elias@radikal.social]

@cstross that appointment was long overdue!

[budley@hobbs-end.uk]

@cstross and the psychotherapy I need after seeing it.

[cadejohnson@toot.cat]

@cstross everything is fine!

[sarajw@front-end.social]

@lumendecens @cstross it would certainly have me very tense

[malte@radikal.social]

@cstross The patient is taking it surprisingly well!

[santi@gone.lema.org]

@cstross As the title says this is the start of her career. Hopefully she’ll get better afterwards.

[santi@gone.lema.org]

@reay @cstross It’s probably designed and posted by some “Agent” which will then report very high levels of user interaction because of the many comments and call it a victory.

And honestly it might as well be a successful campaign. They say there is no such thing as bad publicity.
