We all better get used to explaining what an AI image generator is quick, because we're about to see a new wave of endless machine-made disinformation sent directly to our parents' less discerning eyeballs. And no fact-checker is going to be able to keep up.
"Yeah mom, you know that app that turned my face into a drawing? Yeah, the japanese-style ones. Well that picture of Joe Biden eating a kid was made the same way. No mom, not by the japanese. It's a machine."
This is also one case where the AI's weaknesses might work in its favor. "This person got a covid vaccine and look at how fucked up their hands are now"
Anyway, point of this thread: look out for a new wave of AI-generated misinformation coming straight for you and your loved ones. Learn how to recognize AI images and spread the knowledge.
As I've been seeing in @snopes and @hoaxeye's accounts lately, it has already started.

In case you need a recent example. And since this one, the algorithms have gone through a couple of updates. It's going to get much harder to tell which image is real and which one isn't.
