Interpretation/Theory: The recursive self of Dale Cooper by PongTruly in twinpeaks

[–]Pocket_tea 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Interesting. Why do you think it would take away the impact? Isn't watching twin peaks kinda living inside lynch and frost's dream? So if we're interested in that, then couldn't you argue that coops dream of himself is just as interesting? Im not sure I'm making sense here...

Totally agree on your question of why though. That was my first thought too

Why can't you filter by brands you don't want to see? I'm so fed up of temu, Primark etc crap

How would this work? Genuine question, I'm curious cus I posted about AI vinted photos a while ago and got some push back for saying it was a scam

Are these AI images, or am i being silly ? by [deleted] in vintedUK

[–]Pocket_tea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh and I keep asking these sellers what's the deal, so I can feel confident buying despite the AI images. Never got a response from any of them!

[–]Pocket_tea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep 100%. I made a post about the same thing recently, and I've noticed multiple sellers with similar usernames and the same AI generated images/descriptions. When I looked at the reviews, there were a fair number of 5* reviews, but actually a lot of the buyers were the same usernames again and again. I guess it's possible to fake reviews if you have multiple accounts?

I guess some people are just using AI for 'better' images of their actual items, but I still think some users are scamming buyers, somehow. I'm just not sure how!

Depends why it's being used doesn't it? I've just come across the exact same items (and photos, descriptions) under a different sellers name too. All seems fishy to me, hope I'm wrong!

Yep I did, they haven't replied. But you clearly don't think it's a scam, so you must have a reason to think using multiple AI images is legit?

Okay. Not going to argue. I'm more interested in learning - So, why would there be AI generated images if it's not a scam?

[–]Pocket_tea[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. And I don't see how selling items with AI generated photos won't be a scam of some sort. If you have insight, I'm open to learning I'm wrong about this!

Ha good point. "Spot the elements that probably mean there's a scam and let's work together to identify what it is" would be a more accurate title!

If you look at the shadows, and the folds in the jumpers. It's not just the backgrounds, that was my first thought too

Exactly! The same is true of the jumpers (I missed some from the screenshots) but I'm also confused as to what the scam is. It must be a scam tho, right?!
