   I'm annoyed by all the AI-generated images on social media lately

     One type of generated image that bothers me in particular are fake Lego sets that there's clearly no way to build

     @pfefferle In the last two weeks, suddenly there was this "news" account popping up in several languages. Using hashtags to draw views/engagements and using fake AI generated photos to 'enrich' their toots. Naturally, I block these accounts.

     @pfefferle what about non-AI-generated images?

     @talksina that’s something completely different and totally fine! But the growing number of highly colored marketing AI images on LinkedIn are really annoying!

     @pfefferle being totally blind myself, AI is the only way I have found to generate pics (unfortunately this sight-only based digital world requires pics in too many cases) so, I have the input -bing or copilot or whatever- creating image from text. And then #BeMyAI -a tool for visually impaired- giving me the text description of what I have built. BeMyAI but also other apps that describe visual world.

     @kev 🤔

     Ok, maybe that’s the exception that proves the rule!
