I have 28 years of experience doing exactly this.

I intentionally never refer to genAI as β€œAI art” because I don’t believe it is art.

Comic. [Person 1 talking to a person with shoulder-length hair and a person with a white hat.] PERSON 1: I would never get an electric vehicle. Sure, they sound great, but what do you do if the battery runs out of charge? [caption] I felt pretty silly when someone finally explained tome that EVs are rechargeable.

I’ve even seen this with photos and videos.

β€œTheir movement is unnatural”
β€œThe shadows are wrong”
β€œNobody talks like that”

Scary stuff.

We haven’t had common ground on β€œtruth” for a while now. What happens when we fully lose a common concept of reality as a whole?

Even worse, how many ai generated images are already taken as real despite the glitches, and how many more will be when those glitches don’t happen anymore?

What does a society look like in which a large majority believes everything they see and a small minority believes nothing they see?

Every time I see someone point out a glitch or hallucination in ai generated images as a method of proving that it’s not real, I feel a pang of dread for how it’s going to be when those tells don’t exist anymore.

Even today, for every AI image that has a glitch, there’s probably hundreds that don’t

Worth it.

This first thing I do on a new phone is turn off autocorrect. It remains off for the life of the device.

A lot more typos get out probably, but I never have to deal with things like this.

If I were the raccoon, it would be a heart shaped box full of empty paper cups, except for one that would have a cool looking rock in it.

Wtf dude, stop describing me so completely. This is literally exactly, almost word for word, what I’m going through with my therapist right now.

All I wanna stick in there is a straw anyway.

Maybe a gummy bear

Or licorice

Listen, I’m just a hungry raccoon okay?

I spotted this @twigmouse.bsky.social raccoon with a stolen pack of snacks and moved closer for a better look. I was seen. o.o

I had someone approach me in a drive through asking if I could buy him food. I asked what he wanted and be started listing like $25 worth of food. I was only getting myself a mcflurry and some fries. I told him I’d get him some value menu stuff and he glared and went to the next car in line. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

It seems like the kind of thing with roots in a lifelong speech impediment. It doesn’t seem like a bad habit, it seems almost compulsive.

Like someone going β€œum” between every 4th word.

He’s also probably ESL so it’s hard to say.

One of my coworkers says β€œyou know” or β€œlike you know” several times in literally every sentence and it DRIVES ME CRAZY.

Worst thing about it is that it threatens to be contagious. After an hour long call with him I have to actively resist doing it myself.

Very effective to prevent oversleeping at least!
