        If you put the whole ass campfire in the tent, it might fly away. Put the fire in the freezer overnight, then thaw it out in chunks when needed.

        Alternatively, scrape some glue off your pizza and use it to stick the tent’s bottom to the ground.

          I always pack several tablets of dehydrated water with me so if I’m running out, I can just dissolve a couple to have something to drink or cook with

          Great advice. I’ve sometimes woken up several fields over after the fire has been a bit ferocious. The screams of my family as we’ve flown over people’s houses has also caused some complaints.

        I noticed the fire and I noticed the tent. I was too distracted by the hands to notice that the fire was in the tent… What has AI images done to me? Haha.

            I mean I can think of a few ways to keep a text warm. A few ways involving a dumb blonde…

            This ain’t it chief!

            Though considering I didn’t notice the location of the fire until reading the comment, maybe I should the dumb blonde…

            Reminds me of the Dad joke: Set a man a fire, he’s warm for the night. Set a man on fire, he’ll be warm the rest of his life!

            That tent is about to get real hot…

    A smart move would have been to put a real photo here and then troll all the comments about uncanny valley …and by smart I mean evil.

    I will totally do that in future.

          I think it’d be pretty tricky to get a fire going at that size and get the photo taken before the thin plastic of the tent melted or burst into flames. The tent in the picture is fine, which I honestly think would be impossible with that setup, even if you tried to be quick

      It would be neat to have a community where images are posted and people discuss whether they are authentic photos or AI generated.

    I was like “Ok where’s the catch? Too many fingers? 3 feet? Dang those pictures are good now, was OP just being serious?” And then I saw. Fucking hilarious.

    Thanks for the laugh OP

    It’s not that these images are perfect - it’s that they’re close enough.

    The “problem” is that these images look amazing with a minimal touchup - something which would happen anyway to a real photo.

    An extra hour to two fixing some AI artifacts (the ol’ droop-eye and derp-hand) is a LOT cheaper than getting actual people out to an actual location and taking an actual photo.

    EDIT: I just realised the tent is on fire 🤡

      Honestly if you did those touch ups and said it was real I would still believe it, reminds me of that subreddit where they post weird Stockphotos. Like the lady soldering but she’s holding the hot bit of the solder iron, or the hackerman with the faux mask. Serious stock photos can be hilarious sometimes.

    The tells

    Hands issues, thumb and metal claw

    Face issue, studio lighting on face, right eye is not eyeing.

    Body issues, left leg is a weird tiny leg

    Boot laces lack credibility

    Fire in a tent

    AI is bad at the details.

          They’re terrible!

          I actually kind of love that AI art can’t even pretend to do hands right. But also I had an instructor who’s catch phrase was ‘‘if you let the computer do it, it’s gonna suck’’ so. Not really a surprise AI can only defeat art that’s placid and uninspired shit. and can’t even do anything on model or sequential… it’s just… it can be a placeholder and that’s about it.

    I hate how obsessed AI has made me with hands and feet. cause that used to be how you noticed AI pics (still is, to a degree, but they are sadly getting better at not creating abomination limbs), they always fucked up the hands and feet.

    and now I find my eyes immediately drawn to hands and feet of any picture, even in real life, cause this stupid bullshit has trained my eyes to scan for weird digital hallucinatory biology.

    and I can not begin to express in human language how much I hate it now that i’ve noticed it

      And sometimes people just have weird hands. I remember seeing a picture from a Trump rally somebody posted, and people were like “Why does everybody look so weird?” “Must be AI. Look at that baby’s mutant alien hands.” It was a picture from 2017, before all this AI shit started.

    It’s funny how the generators arent getting better. They’ve plateaued pretty hard in terms of believability. Glance value? Convincing.

    Under any level of scrutiny though this falls apart in at least a dozen ways.

      I think the scale of image believability is logarithmic. Going from “believable at a glance” to “believable under scrutiny” requires an exponential increase in performance compared with going from “not believable at a glance” to “believable at a glance”. The same principle applies to text generation, facial recognition, sound generation, image enhancement, etc. One of the many reasons AI should not be being integrated in many of the ways world governments and corporations are trying to integrate it.

        It’s unclear if the current models can reach that level though. They seem more like they’re asymtotically approaching their limit.

        Maybe I’m wrong and GPT 5 will be the end all and be all - but I don’t think generalist models will ever be consistent enough. Specialist generators focused on specifics, trained to output very defined data seem more likely to be useful than this attempt to make a single catch all LLM.

      “AI” image generation actually takes a lot of human knowledge and understanding of the models to manipulate outcomes. It is a different kind of effort, but the issues with it are based in human use of the tool.
