hoo boy... see this is the problem with machine learning being called AI... we talk in technically minded spaces about what a computer program thinks and nobody stops to think by themselves if this is even a sensible thing to say. which it is just not. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I kept reading that as "Weird Al" and wondered why the hell he was interested in this subject.

Lol she does look like Weird Al

"AI detectors" are bullshit preying on people who don't know enough about neural networks to know they are bullshit.

[–] secrethat@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

Well you could in theory for lets say AI generated images, train a neural network model that could pick up on artifacts in an image that only seems to be present in AI art, as well as AI generated texts, seeing how common a certain sort of text structure appears or something like emotion or sentiment analysis where an AI generated text doesn't do as good in terms of presenting genuine emotions.

Of course it's not 100% there yet. But to call them bullshit is closing doors that are not fully realised

A.I. thinks other A.I. is human, and it thinks humans writing in a language they’re not proficient in are A.I.

Damn, they are going to kill us all.

It's only a matter of time before someone's academic career is unjustly ruined by one of these tools.

Maybe just top calling it A.I. to begin with until it actually has ANY inteligence!

They all just take known information off the internet and regergitate it out which is has always been the problem with technology. Gargage in, Garbage out! It's the same as Google hoovering up the internet to feed it's shitty A.I. so how long before the stories of "A.I. poisening" costing millions because no-one knows whats going on with them and the rush to A.I. everything in a bid to decimate employee cost so the morons in charge of all this junk can buy another yacht or maybe a carbon submarine or 12 for there fake friends!

You look at the timeline and they all start off ok'ish but the more they 'improve' them, the worst the get! Although Google will likely dump it for another in 6 months anyway like they usually dump every other decent service they come up with!
