   Is the new profile @Em_Quark using an AI generated profile image?

   Does anyone know this person from other social media sites, or could this be a fake profile?

     Why not just message them and if they seem fishy you can always ask one of the many questions AI is known to be poor at but a person can do trivially.

     Fair, just wanted some info so i could review it and consider your point. the fact that Varenka immediately blocked me for politely asking, and the OP did not says a hell of a lot too.

     @randahl

     What, no it absolutely isnt... It is a requirement ONLY on mastodon.social. All other servers running mastodon have no such restriction.

     This person is on mstdn.social (Stux's server) and they have no such obligation. It is perfectly acceptable and allowed to use undisclosed AI generated images on that server as far as I know.

     If you doubt it just ask @stux as he will either tell you you are harassing a person that is working within the rules (in which case you might want to apologize) or he will tell you the person is indeed in violationa nd handle it. Either way if this person is using AI generated images or not that in and of itself is a vioaltion.

     Now what would be more concerning is your accusation that their **posts** are AI generated and fake. But seeing as they have replied here in a way that doesnt seem like AI, that doesnt seem to be the case. Moreover it is problematic to make these statements to such a large follower base due to the tendency to dog-pile on a person who seems to otherwise be a real person, and even if you are legitimately right that they arent you should handle this with your system admin and the admin of the foreign server due to the potential harm you could cause if you are wrong, and the fact that you lack the tools to know if you are correct.

     Just my two cents, I dont think you mean harm, but you should be aware of the very real potential for it.

     I would never just assume the person behind a mastodon profile uses their actual picture and their real name, or not take liberties in their description of themselves. Is it of particular interest in this case?

     @sibrosan it is a requirement on servers run by Mastodon that users disclose the use of AI generated images.

     @girlnamedwar @Em_Quark

     Honestly I assumed the same, so I dont hold much animositoy to her for that alone. Its just not a good look given the respectful tone, and its particularly a bad look to try to slip in a last-word and then insta-block, like a more respectful approach is to just block. That said like I said im not really holding it against her too much, just not a good look.

     @freemo @Em_Quark i feel shes just frustrated by a lot of people hounding her, which i can understand by the ammount of vitrol thatbwas directed her way on his post...

     To menit says nothing besides what i dewcribed above...

     Being a woman on social media has me knee jerk at times as well.

     Especially seeing how social media can really get victim blamey...

     @girlnamedwar @Em_Quark

     Oh its absolutely par for the course on social media, and doubly so for the fediverse. I just tend to evaluate people regardless of the norm. If you do something I see as wrong, it is no less wrong when everyone else does it.

     But again, in terms of "wrong" here its a small wrong at best, so hardly worth the extended conversation.
