Ok I'm getting tired of this habit of deep linking to apps. The apps either override existing web pages featuring the same content, or there's a web redirect to an app I might have installed but am not signed into. So in multiple cases, it's difficult to just read whatever the information is. Web pages are universally accessible. Everyone has a browser on their device of choice. The web is 35 years old. Access to inf…

What is being deeplinked? I was able to read the page and click on the pictures all in my browser (iOS safari).

They mean how the phone lets apps handle browser urls instead of just opening the url in the browser.

The nefarious thing is some people will tell you there’s nothing wrong with the link and gaslight you into thinking you’re crazy – because they don’t have the Bluesky app installed.

You're saying the OP has configured their user agent to launch an app for this URL and somehow that's me gaslighting?

I imagine that's the joke they're making, yes

What is it that is supposed to be wrong with the link? .app is a regular TLD, the host name resolves to a regular IP address and there is a regular web server returning regular HTML.

Nah totally agreed, pet peeve of mine is trying to open a link in my browser to a website and my phone decides it knows better and insists on redirecting me to "The App" (which I've never installed and don't want, so it sends me to download it)

I don't have the bsky app, nor am I logged in on my phone's browser, and this opened fine for me. No app redirects.

I have to say that I think the photo without the Ligthroom processing actually looks better. The second one hasn't just added a bitcoin, it has also added the "AI shimmer" that seems to be a part of a lot of generated images. I can't put my finger on exactly what the characteristic is, but my first instinct (separate from the bitcoin, which was hard to find) is "that's an AI picture." Someone should just spend some t…

That could be the VAE? The "latent" part of latent diffusion models is surprisingly lossy. And however much the image is getting inpainted, the entire thing gets encoded and decoded.

Edit: I'll note some new models (SD3 and Flux) have a wider latent dim and seem to suffer from this problem less.

AI generated images are also biased strongly towards medium lightness. The photographer's adjusting of the tone curve may simply give it that "look".

What are you even talking about? It is literally a website.

I have the Bluesky app installed but I'm not logged in. So the website link is also being treated as an app deep link. It opens the app instead of just opening the website.

I don't have a lot of familiarity with app deep links, but my understanding is that originally deep links required a special non-domain to be registered that was separate from a normal web url.

Somewhere that's changed over the years and now regular web links like this default to opening in apps if the user has them installed.

I don't think there's any AI-fication going on in that photo. The modified version has a more compressed tone curve to bring out more detail, along with jacked up saturation (especially evident for water). This is similar to what most cell phones do by default to make photos look more pleasing.

I do agree that the original looks better, but the author of the post clearly prefers the modified version.

So HN, any theories on how this happened ?

They used a circular mask and the model overfitted on Bitcoins as likely examples of circles? Adobe's models are only trained on their stock image library and they have a whopping 646,136 Bitcoin images. https://stock.adobe.com/search?k=Bitcoin

All of them AI slop of course. They train on this? I guess it's garbage in, garbage out.

Because of people posting on the singularity and AGI prospects: we need to keep the feed of counter examples active. After all, this is training data too.

Maybe AI is using bitcoin to transact in the black market and this is evidence of it

You only had to put "with drones" and you had the trifecta. No wait: quantum drones.
