I discovered this woman, who I call Loab, in April. The AI reproduced her more easily than most celebrities. Her presence is persistent, and she haunts every image she touches.
There is a sub for that (probably, c/horror, c/psychiatry), this ain’t it.
What does this have to do with technology?
repost to !creepy@lemmy.ml and give us a series of images
Give us some more examples!
Crap this was meant to be a link to a nitter thread with lots of examples but I guess when you choose a photo the link gets borked. Sorry will have to do a retry when I’m back at my computer sometime. But for now you can just Google her name and add Twitter.
how do you hide a post on kbin?
I’m pretty sure that’s just Ozzy Osbourne.
I see Judith from 2-1/2 Men
I see Michael Jackson
Now I won’t sleep tnite. Great…

What I understand of it is that AIs can get a little confused when creating images, and when that happens, this creepy face (or alternate versions of “her” of course, since the AI isn’t going to pump out exactly the same thing all the time) can come out as a result. People have named her “Loab.”
Here is a CNET article from last year on it. It is creepy, but an interesting, unintended side effect of the technology.

Ah thank you, I was too lazy to search for an article. That’s what was missing from this post…

Now here is the article if you really wanna shit your pants: techcrunch.com/2022/…/loab-ai-generated-horror/ turns out this is actually interesting. AI is probably able to create the most haunting images imaginable, there you go, another great use case waiting to be weaponized.
