“Subscribers to X Premium, which grants access to Grok, have been posting everything from Barack Obama doing cocaine to Donald Trump with a pregnant woman who (vaguely) resembles Kamala Harris to Trump and Harris pointing guns. With US elections approaching and X already under scrutiny from regulators in Europe, it’s a recipe for a new fight over the risks of generative AI.”

    I used it to make this picture of Elon and convicted Epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell hanging out, crazy how realistic AI got

    Generative AI isn’t the real risk. It’s letting musk go unchecked that is.

      The cat’s out of the bag unfortunately. I can download stable or unstable diffusion on my home PC and make it generate all kinds of stuff. It’s open source so you can’t really stop that knowledge from spreading.

      You can however recognize that the majority of people won’t do that, and write rules around software that is delivered as a service or for a fee. That would stop 90% of it.

      So while regulating GenAI is possible, it’s not full fix. GenAI is kind of still the risk.

    I don’t care about “Grok”, but just this morning I was looking at some creations that Stable Diffusion and Flux cranked out, and it’s crazy just how incredible these image generators are getting.

    I also saw one example of software that allows you to live-stream with someone else’s face, using only a single photo of that person. You literally can’t trust anything you see, read, or hear online anymore.

    My webhost also put out some AI wordpress thing that basically creates posts and images for your website automatically. What’s the point of the internet if everything is fake?

      That’s the point I’m reaching as well. The internet as a mass of disconnected sites feels dead. Any attempt to look up information goes to pages that follow the same formula and feel very AI generated even with errors and unconsistencies typical for AI. What is the point of the open net anymore? The only value I feel like I’m getting is in specific trusted platforms or sites. It’s a sad state that we’ve reached.

        I’m finding more and more websites with these long form question and answers about a topic. They all look the same and if you know enough about the subject you can easily tell that either AI or an idiot wrote these "articles.

        I’m just going to start archiving human created content from the last 20 years, and stop looking for new content. The internet of 2024 is 99% quantity and 1% quality (from sites dating back more than five years).

      The last '20s sucked also. All of this has happened before, and it’ll all happen again, but this time with ads and AI!!

    “We are all going to die because we have new technology, help us governments, regulate it so we don’t make too much human progress at a time!!!”

    I want to know what happened to “information wants to be free”.

    Oh boy! Can’t wait to experience the ramifications of this one!

    What’s next? Gonna try to recreate Deep Impact, just to see?

      A lot of the commercially available image generators will block certain terms, like copyrighted characters or presidential candidates, or celebrities in their underwear. You can of course do this all without limits on your own hosted versions of stable diffusion and whatnot. But a commercially available option without any limits is actually news.

        Interesting. Just tested this on the publicly o one I use and typed in “President Biden, White house”. Sure enough it produced pictures of him standing within the White House but none of them had his face being displaying correctly. Either messed up, blurred out or just looked horrifying.
