Grandpa, is that a Nazi?

I'm not a big fan of AI. It's fun and interesting, but I know at worse it will probably kill us all. ( I just read that two AI models have already started creating their own language that we (humans) don't understand so the genie is really out of the bottle.) At best, it will certainly cause much disruption in all facets of society. That's a foregone conclusion. My kids are already adjusting their career aspirations to do work that AI can't yet do. That's pretty fucked.

 

It will absolutely end photography. Photography as I know it. Knew it.

 

Anyway I've been dabbling in various large language AI models, working through some ideas with images. Just to see what it can do, what it won't do, and what can be made with the introduction of post production via Adobe Pshop. It's really improved. At first it failed at hands. Those days are gone. It's imagery output is now quite astounding. Why? Because it's fed on the photography of the last one hundred years, and all associated commentary about those images. It's probably fed on yours.

 

And to answer the original question: yes. Grandpa said that's a Nazi.

HEY - I'm not pushing this image into groups or accepting group invitations. This is a manufactured AI image. Slightly human altered. It was a freaking test.
