Just so I understand. Parent posts their child with a visible physical disability, something I think is not cool for any child but I’m sure must be nice for people who have or help assist with similar disabilities, and I’m sure can be uplifting for those who don’t. Fine, I don’t like it (the content angle, not the concept of visibility of people not like me), but fine.

What the hell is the kindest possible interpretation of the AI edit? What does anyone gain from that? Am I missing something fundamental or are we just witnessing a pathologically cynical attempt at engagement farming? I don’t even think the commenter knows if they’re being supportive or just rage baiting, I feel like after a certain point it’s just content is content is numbers is numbers. I really need to read Baudrillard.

I'm pretty confident it's just "oh they're not smiling, Grok, fix it". People like that rarely think deeper than that, in my experience.

That's my experience as well. Usually followed by them getting very offended someone called out their gesture and explained all the side effects that they won't have to deal with, especially in this day and age of people trying to minimize their online footprint.

Similar to the photoshop of the Fallout TV show poster to give her a crazy dumptruck ass, i think people just kinda fucking suck a lot. Posting it in the comments kinda insane though

It's 100% trolling. That being said, the original was using a child for engagement farming. Both behaviors are less than ideal imo.

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
