Not to be rude hun, but isn't that an AI pic?

☑️ provides padding of struck with a police weapon

Absolutely torn between deleting truly embarrassing evidence of me being fooled by AI and keeping this up because reality exists which still lets my points stand. Settling for this addendum & grumbling to myself in annoyance for the rest of the night.

In Chile, we had a notorious protester wear a pikachu costume, she even won a seat to write the first constitutional draft during the 2018 social outburst

It was in 2019***

I feel you. We were discussing it in a discord and hesitated on whether it was real, but did not jump to AI. Especially infuriating that *the real photos exist* so the AI version achieves nothing.

I assumed that an actual event which people had footage of which had just happened was safe from generative geeks, but seemingly not. Super glad to add images of specific events from within unfolding mass movements to the list of things I have to immediately distrust the origin of 👍 Great future!

Absolutely. Hard to pick the worst part of the genAI "boom" but immediately distrusting any unfamiliar image is way up there.

I was thinking it was a fucking awful decision to run straight into a line of cops in this fit, even if they were so disorganised as to be firing their water canons *at eachother*, but I was too enthused by the stunt to voice that criticism. Boo Boo am I: the fool.

no shame being fooled by generative AI, that's what it's trying to do! It sucks not because of how good or bad the images turn out, it sucks because of all the other stuff 😤

IMHO it's less about being tricked and more about acknowledging even you can be tricked.

fwiw, I thought the image was real bc I saw the video first, and didn't notice the typos until it was pointed out

cyberized.bsky.social•7 days ago

Good news, there is a real video!

Broke: Taking it down because you got fooled by AI.
Woke: Taking it down because you wrote "moral" instead of "morale."

Don't do this, you are very recognizable to the police, not mobile at all, you'll catch fire very easily. That's a recipe to die /end up in jail just to amuse the internet.
