Reply to comment by shmoculus in Midjourney v5 is now beyond the uncanny valley effect, I can no longer tell it's fake by Ok_Sea_6214

The older generations got their brains completely fried with shitty jpegs on facebook, and plenty of young people fall for fake shit too. We're in for a tidal wave of lies flooding social media.

It's already happening. And for that reason, I have a little flag in my mind on all content adding a probability of being generated. No content can be trusted any more. This starts from phone cameras automatically "improving pictures", over AI-enhanced mirrors, to your classical generated propaganda.

A few years back I came across a YT channel of some deeply religious guy zooming in on jpeg artifacts, adjusting levels in photoshop and claiming they were evidence of moon bases. I tried searching but it looks like youtube has successfully buried that kind of content in the main search. I can guarantee, if I could find them, there are people claiming generative AIs are evidence for demons when they zoom in all the way and squint hard enough.
