Mr. REW is almost touching in his innocence, but I think this is where a lot of people are right now "you mean all of this is just ... slop?"

There is also the added bonus of digital yellow-face and black-face... and "don't trust doctors" too.

It's kind of depressing.

He gets chewed out in the comments, "What you're just realizing this now??" but I think the way he walks the viewer through the emotional steps is good to help people who are just now realizing some things or who may not understand why people are against AI.

There is such a thing as sterilized medical grade honey. It's used sometimes in hospitals for wound care and skin conditions. Honey has antimicrobial and healing properties but regular honey can have bacteria spores in it.

…I still pick it up almost immediately.

I would say it's shocking to me how some people seem entirely unable to tell the difference, but then I remember decades of design work where certain clients couldn't tell what I'd changed. "All looks the same to me!”

I really do not need a fake Jamaican man telling me to put coconut oil on my hangnail or whatever. It just makes me sad that I almost never get to hear real Jamaican accents as much as I did when I used to visit my auntie. The man is a fake ghost and everything is wrong. It's like a nightmare.

By all means, slap some honey on the bandage when you hand-suture that otherwise limb-threatening rip from tripping on a barbwire fence you didn't expect to encounter on your wilderness camping trip.

But get yourself to a real medic as immediately as you can, turn around that hour, do not imagine there is anything vacation-adjacent in your schedule after.

It's an absolute delight!

But to the discussion as a whole, my MIL absolutely cannot recognize AI content, images or videos. This was true of the 6 finger era as it is now, when things are way more uncanny valley. My daughter has to continually point out the slop she shares in the family group chat.

I don't blame her, especially for feel-good stuff. It looks real and we *want* to believe it.

Honey is an amazing food and tastes wonderful ... especially if you know a beekeeper and can get some comb. It feels great to eat and needs no processing so you can feel like a bear in the woods just munching on nature.

Isn't that enough?

Why isn't that enough? Why do we need to make stuff up?

It also really annoys me when the AI pet videos show a dog or cat making a face that I know means the animal is constipated or about to throw up... but it kind of looks like a "smile" if you don't know pets very well and it's played that way.

"aw he's so happy"

As silly as pet videos are the real ones could at least show you things about who the animals really are. The fake ones just use signals that make sense to people and get more views. They entrench ignorance.

It sucks that something safe and fun has been destroyed. I think we get a lot less of it around the fedi (A LOT less) but even here if I don't know the cat or dog in the video and their owner and it's just "too cute" and "too perfect" I just move on and get no joy from it because it probably didn't really happen.
