I asked Chat-GPT aboout Elon’s salute, just for fun, and it replied it could not analyse pictures and I needed to describe it to him. I had pictures analysed before, even traslating and explaining a cartoon joke. I tought it could be caused by the .webp format. So I retried the joke image and it worked fine. I uploaded a png of Elon and it went wrong. Can others repeat the experience or was it just a fluke? I am not angry just let down a little.

    suggested it was fake, in part because it depicts a “controversial handgesture”. asked to clarify, it names the roman salute.

      to be honest elon using the nazi salute was probably not in the training data or high up on the probability chart.

      As far as I know Elon although has beef with OpenAi.

        That’s not how it works. If the training data had to include specific people doing specific things it’d be useless. Instead, the training let’s it infer individual image elements from different sources. It never had to be trained on orange pentagons to be able identify “orange” and “pentagon” from an image of an orange pentagon.

        Well well well turns out artificial “intelligence” isn’t so intelligent after all

        didnt want to suggest this was a response purpose-made for this image. still i find it worrying that instead of admitting it doesnt know this image/ cant tell if its fake or real, it instead directly jumps to “fake”

        it also suggested that the gesture did actually originate in ancient rome. when i said that thats not true and the picture is real, it then agreed that the gesture originated in fascist italy, but also suggested the picture should be viewed in the “broader context of the event” lol

          That’s exactly why I hate it. Fascists love nothing more than making up a past that never existed and idolising it.

        In 1923, the salute was gradually adopted by the Italian Fascist regime. It was then adopted as the Nazi salute and made compulsory within the Nazi Party in 1926 and gained national prominence in the German state when the Nazis took power in 1933.

        It’s the same thing. It’s like saying “it’s not a gun, it’s a firearm”. It makes no sense, both words mean exactly the same thing. Even if there’s somehow some technical edge case where the distinction matters it’s just not relevant here; it’s a nazi salute no matter what you call it.
