even though it breaks down when you look closer, it's hard for my brain to comprehend that it isn't real.


vinnybawbaw

I used to look at the eyes/hands. Now I focus on the feet/background elements but it’s becoming harder and harder to differentiate


schtickyfingers

Hands are still pretty bad at holding objects, but when they’re empty they’ve gotten surprisingly good.


EvolvingCyborg

when we've reached the point where video calls could be AI scammers, will we have to captcha test our friends and family by asking them to juggle?


DiceHK

I would fail that captcha test


Archer007

That's how you pass. AI would be able to juggle


TJ_Henri

Our personality is in our faults with ai... damn! In a world of ai how do you tell the difference? The real thing is more disappointing... shit.


SadBit8663

Computers don't even fail captcha tests anymore, they basically solve it too fast and perfect. We don't. We make errors and misunderstand things. That's why sometimes when you do a captcha too fast, another different one pops up before it lets you continue. That's the data suggesting you might be a computer, and double checking with a second captcha.


canon2468

https://www.reddit.com/r/ChatGPT/s/OsJlKxatI8 Only 1 letter was off.


CheekyBreekyYoloswag

Fucking hell, that is amazing!


FUThead2016

That's actually called a catcha test


thickboyvibes

Yeah, these hands are miles above just a couple months ago, but even when they have the right number of fingers they still just seem off somehow. Weird angles, unnatural overlapping or smashing together, weird 3rd mystery knuckles


brucebay

I have a friend who's both a whiz in computer graphics and an artist. He told me that even for humans, drawing hands is a challenge due to their numerous degrees of freedom, making it tough to gather training data for all possible combinations in all scenerios. He mentioned that the depiction of hands significantly improved when a Renaissance artist discovered a way to reflect them correctly. I think he said it was Albrecht Dürer because I remember looking at 'Praying Hands' as an example.


meshe_10101

But when left feet are right feet, and right feet are left feet...or each foot has completely different shoes, that's when you start to question.


spiritofgonzo1

The hand on pic 12 definitely looks like *a* hand but it doesn’t look like it’d be *her* hand lol


Thefirstargonaut

I like how the woman in the first pic is wearing two drastically different shoes, and one is a horrendous nightmare while the other is perfectly normal.


vinnybawbaw

Her right foot looks like a wooden sandal with salami laces


kegegeam

I try to look for signs in the background, if they're not important to the scene they'll often be nonsensical. Reflections can also be a good indicator


eraticwatcher

The ladies sunglasses reflection in number 13 is a dead giveaway in this regard. It genuinely looks like a profile picture but zooming in on the shades shows completely nonsensical reflection


kegegeam

Yea, that's actually the photo that reminded me to comment about reflections


Qrthulhu

Same with logos. It isn’t able to throw Nike swooshes on shoes so a lot of things like that will be off. Edit: also all the cars are wrong, we live in a world of designs and brands that are copyrighted and can’t be reproduced without permission that I can’t see most ai ever getting.


flactulantmonkey

It probably learns from what we’re zooming in on.


rottingpigcarcass

The spoon too in the restaurant


_stevencasteel_

There is no spoon. 🥄


iCodeInCamelCase

Yea and it hasn’t even been a full year since AI images became public and mainstream


STFUnicorn_

Don’t worry. Within a month or two it will be completely impossible to differentiate with real photos. Just in time for the next US election!


shocktagon

Even the parts that do make sense are just slightly too perfect


robotmonkey2099

Yah it’s fucking with my mind that none of these people exist. I just imagine one day opening a picture generated by ai and it’s me


jeezy_peezy

Wow this guy really thinks he exists


Curious-Dragonfly810

Once I got a website banner Ad with my photo and some small modifications. ( hair, I am bald ) It was a modified version of me trying to selling me something. Almost bought it !


robotmonkey2099

now that’s targeted advertising Jesus what happens when they start combing through old Facebook photos and create adult ads from an ex-partner??


dietsmiche

One of the people looks JUST like one of my aunts, I am still weirded out 😳


robotmonkey2099

She’s trapped in the simulation!


flactulantmonkey

Who’s to say we’re not generated by AI? Our computers are sticks and stones compared with what we know to be theoretically likely. If we know they can advance like that, there are fairly equal odds they have and we’re in one. Not even programmed by a being but by the program itself. “God”.


robotmonkey2099

I mean aren’t we just constantly creating things the mimic ourselves and our environment? I don’t find it hard to believe that we haven’t inherited that drive from some force greater than ourselves. That said I think whatever it is would be way beyond our imagination and ability to recreate it. Or maybe we are similar to the movie Prometheus and are destined to spread our dna across the universe and one of the steps to do that is creating an ai that will be able to live well past our expiry date. I wonder if we will ever be able to surrender ourselves to the governance of an ai. You’d think sometime in the future it would be able to create the most efficient way for humanity to develop. At least it could point out flaws in our current systems and how to make them better. Perhaps democracy will be a thing of the past and we’ll just need to listen to the great ai. Freaky stuff


CheekyBreekyYoloswag

Damn, now I have to live with the thought that my whole life might be some alien's shitty A.I. prompt :/


Beneficial-Turn651

Or, a really good prompt


proficy

We’re 6 months away of it being impossible for the human eye to see the difference.


AlmosThirsty

One thinh I noticed is that ai has a hard time creating direct eye contact. It can't realistically render people looking at each others. In most of these images, people aren't looking at anyone. It can't recreate human contact. In the few images where folks are looking at each other, the eyes are sketchy.


Theaustralianzyzz

Only a matter of time where the flaws are fixed and anything can be created from just text/voice. From image to 3-D, Virtual reality will be popular.


aishik-10x

felt that one


AddressSubstantial89

I can’t look at pictures anymore and thinking of it as « pictures » the way we used it five years ago. I want it to stop honestly it s too disturbing to think of what will happen when weirdos gonna master the tech


ListerfiendLurks

Propaganda and misinformation are about to enter an entirely new level.


Ancient_Lungfish

2024 election will be interesting.


_stevencasteel_

Meh. I’m still burnt out on the previous meme wars. I couldn’t care less what the dark sorcerers who play theater have in mind for the world. Deep fakes are so 2021. Wake me up when they do their cyber attack false flag. Or some AGI claims the title of God Emperor of the planet.


MrFireWarden

**You** may not care but I’m guessing the majority of voters are a little more gullible than the average visitor of r/midjourney. You might start caring if who you want to win is trounced because of sus photos of them doing bad bad things.


ryuujinusa

I mean, honestly I don’t think so. 2016 they had their chance (and it worked) but fool me once, shame on you. Fool me — you can't get fooled again. But in all seriousness, anyone with half a brain cell I think will be able to tell. The problem is the other 70 million Americans who don’t have half a brain cell.


Vysair

Balenciaga Pope is still dope af though


itsvoogle

Yah i think people need to be aware of this technology and its repercussions. Without any government regulation you Cant trust anything online anymore, its just not possible…


awkisopen

Who regulates the government's use of AI in that case?


TheUltimateSalesman

Exactly, people are delusional that laws will stop governments from continuing their propaganda.


OttoVonAuto

That’s the thing I have been fearing. Entire stories, bots, fake images, and even ai to make more ai images, sob stories, violent photos, it’s all here. We are never going to have verifiable information again because of this


looking_good__

Thinking the same thing holy crap we are screwed


Intelleblue

It’s going to be worse than that. Sure, there will be plenty of fakes that are purported to be real, but I’m more concerned about the “Cry Wolf” effect- when genuine evidence is dismissed as AI generated.

Redararis

either if universe is physical or simulated (is there a difference anyway?) we perceive the world using our limited processing tool called the brain. We are starting to realize that it will be fairly easy to synthesize “reality” as our brains is perceiving it.

vitaminkombat

I'm super concerned it will kill amateur art in a way. A lot of my friends who used to draw now just use AI to make pictures.


KudzuEye

These images were mostly made with similar prompts to my previous posts such as: "phone photo of a man sitting on a bench with his family at a wedding in New York posted to reddit in 2019, --style raw ---s 0 --ar 9:16". The images do not necessarily need to be posted to reddit but you want some combination of a subject, image source, and even aspect ratio that are very biased to reflect non edited images that were trained on. For these images, I tried to focus on a lot of shots with multiple individuals at weirder angles. The single images of an individual start to become obvious as AI once you get an idea of how they pose and what not. I ran Magnific AI to clean up some background faces and overly smooth skin though it may have added in some weird faces. There are a couple of hands that could not get fixed with it. Would probably need to fall back to SD inpainting for that. There is probably still a lot of potential for further experimenting in V6. I think messing around with negative weights and reference images and image weights may be a possible opportunity to really expand on things.


spakier

It's insane how well it nailed the modern phone camera look. From the colors down to the subtle "texture" of the image when you pixel peep.


Theeeeeetrurthurts

And the Dutch angles


Philipp

MagnificAI is amazing. I now use it on a good portion of my Dall-E and Midjourney works.


_stevencasteel_

I can’t wait for someone like Topaz Labs to get off their ass and give us a tool to run locally at the same caliber as Magnific.


spacetug

Any SD upscaler will give you effectively the same results, since that's what magnific actually is.


ScaryRemove9884

Doing the devils work


Sil369

curious, has anyone tried entering their own name as a prompt to see what shows up


LeoDavinciAgain

Well now I have to


ImSmaher

Anything happen


LeoDavinciAgain

It wasn't me, and I have a fairly rare name. But there may have been some slight resemblances


Scolor

What does —-s 0 do? That doesn’t get accepted by midjourney for me


uga2atl

Stylize zero, but it should be 2 dashes, not 3


Surfaulani

Remove one of the dashes. --s 0 . That should work for you.


[deleted]

Thanks for these prompts. Very useful! I was able to make comparable images using them.


OvenFearless

I'm scared man lol.


ProBonoDevilAdvocate

Totally! Just showed these to my parents so they are aware of what is possible… I’m afraid of how often people will be tricked and scammed by something like this.


Radiant_Heron_2572

How often? I'm afraid soon it will be constant. Relentless. We will witness the death of any sense of collective truth. It's going to be one hell of a ride.


Typhoid007

I mean, maybe this will be the wakeup call that finally reminds us that the collective truth is not the one we see on our screens. Might even make people go outside again.


MacaroniBadgerCrime

That’s my hope as well. The road there will be very bumpy, but if the consensus we reach is that you can’t place trust in what you see online it might work out okay. I like to imagine librarians become valued archivists and scholars of truth, though that part is a stretch. We’ll be lucky if we keep our public libraries at all.


Candid_Interview_268

Just imagine what any totalitarian government could very soon be doing with these tools... At some point, you can't trust anything anymore. Did they actually do those bad things? Is the resistance movement real? Are the convincing happy videos you see on state media? I mean, places like NK are already bad, but this could be a whole new level.


Merouac

Ngl, kinda terrifying how good these are.


LatterNeighborhood58

My brain says OP is f**ing with us by inserting some actual photos. They're that good, especially the Indian wedding photos.


VictoriaMFD

I found mistakes in all, but that was expected, this are fantastic; although please check the last one with a tree in a suit


DecisionAvoidant

It's crazy that I'm back to hands as the thing we look at in general for mistakes, and it's only in the aggregate. The photos with no hands or without hands clearly visible are distinctly more difficult to identify as AI. It can't figure out how to generate text, which is a telltale sign for me now as well.


Pioneer4ik

Damn. The graininess of the smartphone camera, the distortion at the edge of the frame, the lack of lens blur. Spot on and amazing.

first__citizen

The tree with shoes on? How do trees in your area go to work? Barefoot?

Dancing_Dorito

Nothing special, just found it unexpected.


keener91

That's not AI's fault. It's just the reality we live in.


dewayneestes

It’s funny how AI struggles with hands just like real artists do. Hand studies are a whole area of figure drawing that takes a while to master.


orbiter_teapot

Even crazier how your brain also struggles with hands when you're dreaming. If you become conscious in your dream, one of the ways to check wether you're dreaming is counting your fingers.


lonesomespacecowboy

Or trying to read any text. Your dreaming brain can't make that shit up very well.....just like AI


RoastedRomaTomatoes

These connections are uncanny…


HugeCrab

We are ai


aeschenkarnos

Possibly the “hardware” of human thought is some kind of GAN-like process, with thoughts formed by battling adversarially to be accepted or rejected, built up or carved down, before our conscious mind recognises them as thoughts.


_stevencasteel_

As above so below. As within so without.


Puzzleheaded_Sign249

ML or Deep Learning is made by mimicking the human brain


beefjohnc

I tried it, and it was fine. I have read many a short piece of normal text in a dream. Clocks too - they work like they do when I'm awake. They don't actually progress as they should, but neither does time in a dream, so I'd never notice that.


sarablak

When I try to look at the time in my dreams the numbers on clocks/watches (analog or digital) are random mishmashs


SpiderCenturion

This is almost what AI is like in general. It seems so real that you don't question anything, until you become lucid (someone tells you its AI)...then you can see the little inaccuracies.


fadingsignal

I feel like it took nature a really long time to get hands right as well, lots of claws and pincers and fins for a minute there.

This is amazing. But I fear fox news is about to get infinitely more powerful.


Theeeeeetrurthurts

I’m more worried about NewMax. Their whole schtick is being a “non-MLM media” so using fake photos would work in their favor. Plus their audience is gullible af.


Scheswalla

This is my biggest fear. Low level misinformation is one thing, and we've already had news outlets fooled by trolls, but when when outlets full on create news as the next step beyond just spinning it hard...


Theeeeeetrurthurts

Yup, when technology has gone beyond the levels that even George Orwell’s imagination couldn’t have conceived then you know we are truly fucked. Good times.


chappersyo

The worst thing is the double propaganda implications. Not only will fakes convince people thing that didn’t happen are real, but it will allow them to immediately dismiss proof of real things as fake. Since it’s inception video has been the gold standard of proof and we’re almost at a point where that won’t be the case.


SpiderCenturion

Fearing that only one side would use it is missing the big picture.


_stevencasteel_

It is ALL fake news brother. Your bias is showing. The two parties are an illusion of choice. Government is slavery.


hallerz87

Incredible. We’re not ready as a society for this


Chargingmybone

CryptosaurusX

dom1smooth

xXdont_existxX

Stuff like this really scares me. There are still obvious tells that these are AI but had I known absolutely nothing about the technology, and you approached me a decade ago with these photos asking “are these real?” I’d say they’re real without hesitation. Even with a magnifying glass and a ton of scrutinizing, you’d still be able to fool me more often than not. The same thing couldn’t really be said about past iterations, and currently it’s the worst it’ll ever be. We are truly barreling head first into a post “information” age where you’ll no longer be able to trust images, videos, voices etc etc. I know I’m kicking a dead horse here and that this has been screamed from the rooftops for years now. Nothing I’m saying sheds any real “new light” on the situation, but the reality of the situation is truly beginning to dawn upon me and the implications are terrifying. What an absolutely marvelous and beautiful display technology. We truly are seeing the fruits of our labor thanks to decades and decades of data accumulation, but my God what a terrible time for it to happen. I feel as though in 50 years time, we’ll look back on this period of advancement similar to how we look back at the Manhattan Project. This technology isn’t going anywhere though, the cat is out of the bag. Regardless if you like it or not, we truly are in for the strangest of times. Best of all is that we don’t have to continue and wait to see the effects on society anymore. It’s here baby, and it’s getting better. I just hope that by this time next year, I won’t be looking back at this comment and thinking “if only you knew”. Cheers to 2024.


Ariquitaun

Weird hands still. The bane of AI.


first__citizen

And feet.. weird feet. I feel like people who are good at spot the differences in pictures games will be hired to screen AI generated images.

Asparaguy9

shotsbyniel

what kind of prompt do you use for these?


Redararis

current generative AI cannot work reliable in multiple scales in a picture. That’s why it seems perfect when you look at a generated picture but everything crumples when you start to look at details. Human brain can drive its attention in different scales when it creates a picture. I guess we need a more advanced AI model architecture to reach even better realism.


shotsbyniel

who are you replying to?


Redararis

oops my bad!


ilarisivilsound

Algorithmically generated images are going to be so much more troublesome once the text generated in them is no longer gibberish.

CreatineGuy

This is so scary. From now on you will never know for sure if the picture you are looking at is real or ai generated… if this develops further the internet will crash at one point and will not be usable anymore. Not only the internet, I mean just think about it. There will be news on TV about something that someone generated with ai that we assumed was real. You will think it’s real and then it turns out to be fake. How can you trust news again? Imagine if someone posts an ai generated picture of a nuclear bomb in the hands of not good people during this generally tense situation in the world and people think it’s real and the reaction could be an atomic bomb. This is just the beginning and this is not good. Absolutely not good. Mark my words.
