Another thing that AI is ruining: a trusting nature. I’ve caught myself hesitating before I boost a superb photo that’s not obviously AI-generated but may be too good to be true. I check the AltText for signs of individuality like ‘I’ or ‘our local park’ or a random aside. I like fingertips at photo edges. I like typos and garbled grammar and messy phrasing. These are now my Captchas, a human fingerprint pressed into words or photos like a wax seal that verifies: this is from a real person.
@CiaraNi Alas, I‘ve heard that some people include intentional misspellings in AI-generated text just in case readers delvve into analysing it along the lines you mention. I shouldn’t wonder if added ‘features’ will be added to images as well.
@JohnDA That thought had struck me, that 'fake flaws to signal fake humanity' would be next. Depressing to learn that I wasn't just being pessimistic but that it's actually happening.
It seems to currently be people trying to hide the fact that they used AI by manually inserting mistakes, but I suppose it won't be long before it's a built-in feature so you can save the extra step by getting AI to generate content with 'fake human errors' in the first place.
