  I legitimately do not understand how this is a thing that people want. Never in my life have I thought to myself ‘I’d really like a realistic looking photo of myself doing something that did not happen.’ Like, outside of scammers, why is this something somebody would want?

    I think you underestimate how big of a market scammers can be

    scammers and people who live their (fake) life on social are the exact people who need something like this. Unfortunately for us all that is the majority.

      The fake life on social thing is very weird to me. It’s one (if that) step removed from pathological lying. Idk, I just don’t see how trying to make others jealous of a thing that I never did would make me feel better. I guess it’s the dopamine hit of a ‘like’, but to me it just seems totally disconnected.

      I can understand overplaying something you did a little, but to use the article example of a woman laying in a field with an astronaut, is there really that many people going ‘well me and my boyfriend had a great date the other day. Sorry you can’t meet him, he’s back in fucking space. Long distance is hard.’

  I guess they should have asked the AI to come up with a prompt that isn’t super creepy and stalkerish.

    Or at the very least grammatically correct. It baffles me that a billion dollar corporation can’t be bothered to edit their copy.

  This is a tool, and like all tools, it has equal ability to be used for the good or for the bad. If all you ever look for is the bad, then you will never realize the good.

    yes but currently as it stands the bad greatly outweighs the good

  Only thing I have ised this for was making funny edit to have fun with my family and removig unwanted elements from photos (people on beach or trash in alleys), but I can imagine people will use this to fake their online lives even more.
