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.

    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.
