After Nine blamed an ‘automation’ error in Photoshop for producing an edited image of Georgie Purcell, I set out to find out what the software would do to other politicians.

How is it legal for newspapers to fabricate parts of a photo and share it around as news?
Meanwhile we can’t even use copyrighted material to make parody.

Do you have billions of dollars? Didn’t think so

It really shouldn’t be, FOX news photoshopped the same image of a random dude with a gun into multiple different photos to try and push fear mongering and there are still people who believe it.
They probably would have believed it without the photo, but it sure as hell doesn’t help.
Looks like it does do the thing Adobe claimed it wouldn’t after all.
Still poor form from Nine for using it in the first place, and for not catching it in the editorial process. But seems this is just another reminder this week of the biases of generative models.

The issue is also present in DallE and bing image generation. Hypothesis is the sheer amount of porn being generated is affecting the models.
When I tried to create a joke profile for Tinder with some friends, I tried “woman eating fried chicken”. Blocked result. “Man eating fried chicken” works.
Tried “Man T posing on beach” clothed. Woman T posing on beach, blocked.
Woman t posing at sunset on beach, returned nearly silhouetted nude image. Same thing for guy, clothed.Went back to the first one, had to specify that the woman was wearing clothes to make it return the image. Sometimes specifying specific articles.

Your hypotheses makes no sense?
People generating porn would make no change to its training data set.

You wouldn’t feed the images people generate and save back into the system to improve it?
- Deceptichum ( @Deceptichum@kbin.social ) 1•8 months ago
Not after the initial training, no.
That would make it less effective, because instead of being trained on known real things it’s being further reinforced on its own hallucinations.

Photos presented as news should be real, not computer generated fakes.

That’s some horrible grammar from Crikey.

Thank goodness they didn’t use the pics they say they generated of Pauline Hanson. What a revolting thought.

@Tristaniopsis I just wanted to generate some Bikini-wearing Pauline Hanson just for you. But when I looked for fitting source material, I found her in panties doing a car wash. Thanks for that. :D
