Fuck AI

"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

let them all go on this train and never come back please !

[–] LodeMike@lemmy.today 4 points 22 minutes ago

Gal Gadot looks AI generated herself.

Do not make the train joke. Do not make the train joke. Do not make the train joke. Do not make the train joke. Do not make the train joke. Do not make the train joke. Do not make the train joke. Do not make the train joke...

[–] Kazumara@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 11 minutes ago

Sounds like collaborator talk from Gal Gadot.

It’s like if someone asked AI to make the least desirable movie.

English people in 19th century China: Opium is inevitable. You're going to work with it or be left out of the game entirely.

I'm sure this is going to be a stunning masterpiece of cinematic art.

[–] AVincentInSpace@pawb.social 1 points 42 minutes ago

Oh it is. Just not in the way its authors intended.

[–] OwOarchist@pawb.social 34 points 3 hours ago (2 children)

The train has left the station? Fine. That's definitely not the train I want to be on.

[–] Peppycito@sh.itjust.works 1 points 12 minutes ago

That's the thing about trains if you miss one there won't be another one coming, ever.

"The train has left the station, so I must profit immensely from it."

JFC. Can we hear the thoughts of an actor that can actually act?

[–] ramenshaman@lemmy.world 7 points 2 hours ago
[–] davidgro@lemmy.world 18 points 2 hours ago

Incredible. I chuckled at that first paragraph for being extreme satire. Then read the rest.

It's just not possible to outdo reality anymore.

[–] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 11 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Is this photo of her AI or if not what is wrong with her face? I can't put my finger on it but its off, it gives me sound garden / black hole sun vibes and the heebeejeebees somehow

[–] Crazazy@feddit.nl 7 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Perhaps it's her trying to smile without showing any wrinkles on her face. I think it's a learned technique

[–] luciferofastora@feddit.org 6 points 1 hour ago

smile without showing any wrinkles

Who in their right mind thinks a soulless smile is better than acknowledging the perfectly normal phenomenon that people's faces wrinkle when they laugh?

God, those ghouls make my skin crawl

[–] Sharkticon@lemmy.zip 43 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

I'm trying to decide if the acting would be worse if it was the real Gal Gadot or an AI version...

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 1 points 32 minutes ago

shes the physical manifestation of an AI generated woman, like "AVA" from all those posters, the male equivalent would be the rock.

AI would definitely be too human.

[–] magnetosphere@fedia.io 18 points 4 hours ago

That is a surprisingly difficult question, yet also fun to think about!

[–] FluidBeef@quokk.au 5 points 2 hours ago

Did Doug Liman get canceled? He never seemed like someone to do a career scrapheap move like this, so I can only assume he did something terrible.

[–] magnetosphere@fedia.io 31 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

I cannot wait for this to become a huge critical and commercial failure. It has the potential to give AI the massive setback it deserves.

[–] Klear@piefed.world 3 points 46 minutes ago

It's gonna be an utter failure critically. It will make a shitton of money from people wanting to see how bad it is.

[–] Almacca@aussie.zone 48 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah, that's not career suicide at all. She'll be working with The Daily Wire next.

[–] KnitWit@lemmy.world 23 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

I mean, can you name a movie she’s been in since Wonder Woman? Literally the last thing I can remember from her was the video of she put out during covid of celebrities looking for attention.

[–] FluidBeef@quokk.au 7 points 2 hours ago

She did some of those fake streaming blockbusters that no-one you know has ever watched or even heard of.

[–] StillAlive@piefed.world 7 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Did you forget the Disney movie she did? Dang, what was it called?

[–] KnitWit@lemmy.world 6 points 4 hours ago

Haha, I did forget that one. Was it snow white? I remember hearing it didn’t do very well.

[–] PiraHxCx@lemmy.dbzer0.com 21 points 4 hours ago (3 children)

The change towards AI entertainment is inevitable, I for once can't wait for all that low quality crap that is release every year to be fully-AI so I can filter it out, and stuff with real artistic merit and passion becomes easier to find

[–] OwOarchist@pawb.social 10 points 3 hours ago (2 children)

stuff with real artistic merit and passion becomes easier to find

How so? Because there's going to be 10x more slop out there, none of it labeled as slop. And every safe space you have now will be invaded by slop pretending to be made by real people.

[–] pdxfed@lemmy.world 5 points 2 hours ago

The cool thing is, once it's shown there is no market for abstract, disjointed, unhuman stories, everyone who is trying to push and normalize this will move on to the next carcass and try to feed or go back to selling stars or whatever.

[–] PiraHxCx@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

the no-slop will be labelled no-slop

[–] OwOarchist@pawb.social 3 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

And so will the slop, because people will label things as whatever gets more eyeballs.

[–] PiraHxCx@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 10 minutes ago)

you are thinking about tiktok hashtags or whatever, because that's not how databases work, they aren't made for clickbait and are maintained by turbonerds

[–] NuclearDolphin@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 hours ago (2 children)

I got bad news for ya

Worst case scenario, I'll just decide on a cutoff date (probably somewhere between 2021 and 2029) and focus on stuff created before that date, which will contain almost all of the man-made media and none of the genAI slop.

There is a ton of really cool stuff I heard about for me to go through anyway. Video games alone should last me well past the Hayflick limit (hard limit for a human lifetime unless radical life extension breakthroughs happen). To say nothing of movies/anime, books/comics/manga, crafts, causes, etc...

[–] PiraHxCx@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago)

only if you don't know the lengths I go through to make my lists nor how familiar I am with movie/series databases :)

[–] Eternal192@anarchist.nexus 5 points 3 hours ago

She can't act anyway and even AI might not be enough to help her.

[–] orbituary@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

She'll be joining Denise Richards career path soon.
