I better not watch this, it would make me angry. I hate people who could have hired someone like me for the same or even less money and get a working product. But no, they always throw money at fraudsters. Because wasting resources is their very nature.

You’e welcome!

That’s depressing. This is so obviously fake because of how entertaining it is written and how the conclusion gets shoved in your face. No subtlety.

Correct.

No, the text itself. No vibe coder would write something like that. The artifacts you mentioned are the result of simple horizontal and vertical upscaling. If you zoom in you can see it better.

Game: Who’s Lila?

Film: Lake Mungo

Obviously fake. Still funny though.

Look at the Aperature logo in Portal. Quite prophetic, isn’t it?

We will get there for sure. At worst in ten, at best in thirty years. People will get used to neighbors and coworkers getting neutralized fast. Humans have always been good at adapting.

Good luck with trying to create a world that is completely safe because it’s not possible.

There are clients who are smart enough to know what they want but who still let you do your job because you’re doing something they can’t. Very rare but it’s wonderful to work with them.

Facepalm

And AI companies take the cake of course: https://velvetshark.com/ai-company-logos-that-look-like-buttholes

Current version:

Correlation does not imply causation.

To be fair: Logo slop has been the standard for decades long before AI, with graphic designers being forced to create it (The client is always right, especially if the client is an idiot who doesn’t know anything about design). This becomes obvious when you look at the evolution of brand logos.

He could have tripped in his bathroom where a lot of people die, not just the elderly. Such things happen no matter how much you’re trying to make environments safe. I’m not trying to defend AI here (I would be the last one to do so).

We aren’t at the stage where AI-controlled robots run around and make people die by “accident”… yet.

The AI didn’t make him trip…

Not reading the original post explains a lot. It was really not convincing by any means. The social awkward 22-year old with a social butterfly dad getting his son a 27-year old woman to date him. And of couse dad’s even paying for the whole show. And what does the 22-year old social awkward son do? Humblebrag on Lemmy, hoping to make it less obvious by complaining about how dominant his dad is. Nothing about this story works. I’m not saying that weird things don’t happen in real life, I’ve seen a lot that was much weirder. But there are certain principles which act as boundaries. There is real weirdness and there is weirdness only found in fiction. And this story absolutely belongs in the second category.
