      It’s a mess. I can’t trust anything online as coming from a real human anymore. It’s all filters, generated, or paid for. The God of profit corrupts everything it touches.

        I miss the internet from the times when South Park was making fun of it for not being a serious place to do business and features the early internet YouTube memes.

        Things were simpler then.

      It will always be more and more important to know the source of the info and how trustworthy it is. This is, of course, why authoritarians like Trump are always going on, trying to discredit the media, especially those with some scruples left.

    Adobe Stock Contributor. Someone, as a contributor, listed these photos to earn a commission for sales for photo content they say is theirs and own the copyright for.

    It’s a decent side hustle but I’d never upload AI crap.

        I’m not surprised some stock photo companies are selling AI work. I imagine this is an industry not easy to make money in if you are one of the few remaining firms not owned by Getty.

      The obituary you posted doesn’t mention Israel or Gaza. Why did you link it?

          I thought so too, but it’s getting harder to tell the difference between AI and weird people.

            The OP account definitely seems to be.

            All the posts they’ve made have a header, sub header, “::”, and description, with all the copy around the same length each time. It’d be a weird amount of effort to not be using GPT for this
