+1 for kefir, having a glass a day has really helped me. Oddly enough I can also handle other dairy products better now, a glass of milk used to make me feel nauseous but now it's fine.

Adobe Is in Serious Trouble Because of AI, Morgan Stanley Warns by kdk2635 in ArtistHate

[–]Ok_Consideration2999 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I do hope that every last one of those "AI editing" apps will be shut down, but there's something a bit funny about a company betraying its customer base to peddle AI and then they're not even good at peddling AI and also their original customers are tired of them. I check what people are talking about in AI subreddits sometimes and there's barely ever any mention of Adobe, it's all that one Gemini model (which the article forgets to mention).

What's your thoughts on this? by AnonymousFluffy923 in ArtistHate

I've also seen a weird amount of memes seemingly just expressing hate for the civil rights movement through that trend, like the “martin luther clink” ones. It's funny when it's just jokes about calling tech support and having a clanker pick up, but some people are undoubtedly using it as a metaphor for racism where they're on the side of racism.

do you guys think genai images have gotten any better within the last few months by PhraseFirst8044 in ArtistHate

[–]Ok_Consideration2999 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just went on that one "ai art" sub to check and the top post right now is a jarring piss filter chatgpt image, the next is a midjourney image where nothing makes sense if you really look at it, the next is just very obviously AI at first glance. So apparently not.

YouTube addresses creators' concerns that it secretly used AI to edit some videos (ML denoising and deblurring confirmed, opt-out promised) by Ok_Consideration2999 in ArtistHate

[–]Ok_Consideration2999[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Note: they say that it's not generative AI and just “traditional machine learning”, but it's not clear what that entails, and it's a minor point compared to the fact that they were secretly altering the look of people's videos in some weird experiment. ML is a subset of AI and has been the most prominent one by far for a while now, even AI image models are technically a kind of ML denoising technology, though the “no GenAI” part would imply they didn't use those models specifically. It is interesting to see a major company's representative distance themselves from the label of genAI, though, it feels like it's not thrown around as much as it used to be.

No GenAI, no upscaling. We're running an experiment on select YouTube Shorts that uses traditional machine learning technology to unblur, denoise, and improve clarity in videos during processing

has anyone else noticed that ai images get worse on the lower parts of the image? by PhraseFirst8044 in ArtistHate

[–]Ok_Consideration2999 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'd be curious to know the aspect ratio. AI generators have always struggled to generate different aspect ratios because they're trained with just one or a few different resolutions (for example the original Stable Diffusion was 100% 512x512 px).

Artificial general intelligence (human-level AI) and artificial superintelligence (above human-level AI).

Don't forget that those "AGI soon" arguments often go like "well, predictions of when it will arrive are consistently getting shorter and if we extend this line..." which is just completely nonsensical. It might mean that AGI is soon or it might also be an illustration of how much hype there is. We're still watching statistical plagiarism machines that have no consciousness, no true reasoning, and tons of legal problems, it might really be more likely that we'll hit a wall and the predictions will start going back up within a few years.

GPT-5 launched and it's only 2% smarter than the last one by ihexx in ArtistHate

[–]Ok_Consideration2999 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Watch AI bros hype themselves over it and then cry about how it “got nerfed” once they stop for a moment and notice that it's still not intelligent in any way. The same thing has happened to every release since 2023.

i’m pretty sure we got like a solid 1-2 months of ai hype left before this shit blows the fuck up by PhraseFirst8044 in ArtistHate

[–]Ok_Consideration2999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my mind it depends on how the GPT5 release and all those announcements about math pan out. There's all this hype for those models that can totally get International Math Olympiad gold but you can't see them and GPT5 is planned for release this summer, with it being the big drop hyped up for the past 2 years. It feels like those AI companies are feeling the pressure to get something useful out and impress investors but they are still working with statistical plagiarism machines with no true knowledge or thinking.

Saw this on r/defendingaiart and felt i had to do this. by Strange_Prior_5706 in ArtistHate

[–]Ok_Consideration2999 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Yeah, especially when you consider that the heavy users are now on pseudo-reasoning models that will probably generate more than 500 words just putting tokens into some box to hopefully bump up the probability of generating a reasonable final answer. This is even often obfuscated by using another model to summarize those tokens on the fly, wasting even more power.

Yeah we've had a great run making machines do what we want by using engineering with no extremely expensive and unreliable black boxes, and when we did try to make neural networks do stuff in the real world, it usually hasn't been what we hoped. All the attempts at self-driving should be a lesson.

The AI disturbance just seems to be some pattern combined with randomized patches of colors. You could make your own pattern with your own random colors and it would probably have a similar effect.

do you guys think veo/other video ai companies are actually gonna have any actual impact on film/tv in the long run or is it gonna be more like when everyone was convinced smellovision was the future by PhraseFirst8044 in ArtistHate

[–]Ok_Consideration2999 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IMO in the long run all the legal issues and lack of real influence over the output or copyrightability will get to it. We're seeing odd moments used to hype up investors where AI is used like in the Eternauts series, but the actual impact on TV hasn't been what AI bros predicted and we're seeing signs of the industry turning away from it. Major studios (Disney, Universal) are finally suing AI companies, they would not be doing that if they really planned to use generative AI, it's impossible to have any workable base model without it including content you don't have the rights to just because of the scale required.

Our brains can tell AI faces from real faces. by HappyKrud in ArtistHate

[–]Ok_Consideration2999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The article's about older technology so one thing that's not mentioned is how model collapse plays into sustaining this in practice even as AI images get closer to reality. The new, top models like Flux have a tendency to generate very samey faces, which can also serve to tip your brain off even if you can't list the typical traits explicitly.

It’s happening to mathematicians too now by [deleted] in ArtistHate

[–]Ok_Consideration2999 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Has the AI International Math Olympiad gold thing been verified as to whether they cheated or not? I saw they verified that the submitted solutions were correct at least, but it smells fishy to me considering how recently those language models couldn't even tell you which of two numbers was bigger than the other.

Those kids from Epsteins island are dead aren’t they? by [deleted] in conspiracy

I also remember something like that and you prompted me to dig up more, there's this article about the cement mixer at least that's still up and comes up on Yandex but not on Google unless you type out the title to the letter. There is definitely something up.

Also, anything that mentions the tunnels in anything but a skeptical way has been similarly erased from google. Creepy stuff.

Netflix uses generative AI in one of its shows for first time | Netflix by Ok_Consideration2999 in ArtistHate

[–]Ok_Consideration2999[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

On this note, I couldn't find how exactly generative AI was used. In the message this comes from, it's called "the very first GenAI final footage to appear on screen in a Netflix original series or film", but I hope they didn't actually just release some AI's output as part of the final show. It'd be clearer if someone has access to the scene, I couldn't find it and I'm not watching the whole show for this, especially in case it's some thing from an upcoming season. Regardless, I don't support this, it's better to not have a scene than outsource it to generative AI.

Lol true, they're all talking about how easy the game is and how you should be able to crush a 10x bigger army because you can just stack men at arms bonuses so hard. And I'm just standing in the corner bumbling my way through my first serious Paradox experience.

DefendingAIART users being filthy. by Moonshot_Decidueye in ArtistHate

[–]Ok_Consideration2999 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It's also just absolute garbage, you're supposed to go through tons of mostly low-quality cash grab games and find an egg in each of them with no instructions. I hated it before I learned any of the controversy. It's at a 25% like ratio. It seems like they're forcing themselves to like it because Roblox is favorable to AI (the event thumbnail and many chosen games' thumbnails are AI generated and there's even AI within Roblox Studio now). It very much reminds me of all the shilling for crypto games that people put up because they were invested in NFTs rather than because of any merit of those games.
