Heute ist es soweit, ich habe das erste Mal ein großformatiges "Foto" auf der Titelseite einer größeren Zeitung (in diesem Fall der Wochenzeitung "derGrazer") gesehen, welches KI-generiert ist und auch nichts mit KI, AI oder anderen verwandten, digitalen Themen zu tun hat.
Schade. Ich bin mir sicher, das es in Graz genügend Motive und auch talentierte Fotograf:innen gibt, die schnell und zu konkurrenzfähigem Entgelt ein Bild liefern hätten können.
Mit dem hätte…

Titelseite des derGrazer vom 13.7.

Titelthema: Grazer Trafiken unter Druck

Titelbild:
Eine Person drückt vor einem "Tabak Trafik" Trafik-Symbol etwas auf dem Rand eines Mistkübels aus. Das Bild ist KI generiert und hat beim genauen Hinsehen einige Fehler:
- das Gesicht der Person wirkt künstlich und glatt, eine Augenbraue zieht sich bis in die Mitte der Stirn
- es ist verwaschen, was die Person am Mistkübel ausdrückt
- die Fensterbänke der Fenster im Hintergrund sind schief und nicht einheitl…

But, they were evil. Even if you happen to be descended from them. They did a definitively evil thing, and it was a defining choice of their lives. Everyone knew that the war was about continuing and entrenching slavery. More than any modern war, it was feasible for conscripts to escape service, either by paying or by running west.
I guarantee that every person reading this has some evil ancestor.

Congratulations! The achievements are remarkable.

Unsurprisingly, that summary was wrong, completely misrepresenting a person's stated opinion by 180⁰, kinda proving a point there! 🤣

Honestly, I want to be remembered as an anarcho-syndicalist who really cared about building solidarity and living a simpler, more meaningful life.
Not just some random three-year-old autistic gamer who spends way too many hours glued to the same video game.
Like, there’s more to me than that, you know?

Does one side of the face droop? 

Arms: Ask the person to raise both arms. Does one arm drift downward? 

Speech: Ask the person to repeat a simple sentence. Are the words slurred? Does he or she fail to repeat the sentence correctly?
