It is the same people that exercise no discernment when sharing fake news that share these obviously fake AI images. I’ve been seeing it for most of this year and it is concerning that people can’t spot obvious fakes at current AI tech levels.
Facebook has become a cesspool of clickbaits. Less that 1/3 of my feed is people I know (most of which quitted posting anything years ago) or groups I subscribed to - the rest is literally spam, as in meat that's been ground finely and repackaged in a thousands ways. The result is a general sense of nausea.
While this may be a particularly dangerous way of thinking[1], it might be good that everything on the internet is becoming obviously fake, AI-generated junk. So that peoples attitude toward things that are real or borderline but are manipulated by bad actors, whatever their motivations may be, also lose some of their influence over the public. And (hopefully) the public becomes more skeptical about everything on the…
And 100% of my YouTube ads are scams the last few weeks, many with deepfake fuckery going on. This whole side of the Web needs to be put down. The algo-feed ad-clearinghouse side. It’s a cesspit.

I feel like I must be part of some pilot program to actually show people stuff they want to see. I'm sure it won't be deemed profitable enough.
I wonder if we will get to a point where the web is so saturated with this junk that the web itself starts to lose its luster. If AI can dream up a million impressive wood carvings, it seems like the real carving I saw in person is the only one that is actually interesting.
Perhaps the real wood carving is also no longer interesting, because you already saw so many (fake ones) before.
On the other hand I might be able to print out a copy of the AI generated one, hang it at my desk, and enjoy looking at it a few times before it becomes part of the background of my disposable life.
