They have vibe journalists now
Comment on Trains cancelled over fake bridge collapse image

A BBC journalist ran the image through an AI chatbot which identified key spots that may have been manipulated.
WTF?
Doesn’t the fucking BBC have at least 1 or 2 experts for spotting fakes? RAN THROUGH AN AI CHATBOT?? SERIOUSLY??

People need to get that with the proliferation of AI the only way to build credibility is not by using it for trust but to go the exact opposite way: Grab your shoes and go places. Make notes. Take images.
As AI permeates the digital space - a process that is unlikely to be reversed - everything that’s human will need to get - figuratively speaking - analogue again.

I haven’t read it, but it could be to demonstrate how easy it was to identify it as a fake, without the ressources of BBC.

Pr because it was between 0 and 2 in the night. Still, as an author I wouldn’t have mentioned it.

An “expert” could be anyone who convinces someone else to pay them. The “expert” is probably the one that ran it through the chatbot.
