AI image slop vs physiotherapy!

[csara@vmst.io]

@cstross While this is likely AI, having one’s leg surgeried on backwards is a real thing (even if surgeried is a word I made up) https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/procedures/rotationplasty

@cstross "No, no, I saw it online, this will *totally* work."

@cstross This is like one of those puzzles ‘Find six things wrong with this picture’, except six might be selling it short!

@cstross

It could be a very funny ad too, though, to be fair. The text above the picture says, "Find trainee positions that are actually suitable to you - with Azubiyo."

Showing a supposed trainee screwing up the physiotherapy would make sense here if it's supposed to be funny.

Also, we're talking about Germany...we don't really have AI yet. We just recently moved on from fax and modems to 3G and DSL /shrug.

@cstross @tomwwolf that left leg is pretty short too. Walks in circles with bad limp. No wonder she needs physio.

@cstross This raises *so* many questions

@cstross

I'd expect this sort of thing from a chiropractor, but never from a real field like physiotherapy.

@cstross

OMG I laughed so loud.

@cstross Be warned. This is what happens when you visit an unqualified physiotherapist. The patient seems to have severe oedema in her left ankle too. It’s thicker than my thigh.

@byrnensorg @cstross You’re trying to mislead us I think. It’s her ear isn’t it?

@cstross "That should loosen things up a bit."

@cstross La Ciguapa is allowed health care, too!

[sin@misskey.sindastra.net]

@cstross@wandering.shop It is likely slop, yes, but also:

If it were the short leg that is rotated, then I would not be as quick to dismiss it.

So, AI got it almost right.

My favourite AI attempt was a woman crouching at the starting line of a running track.

She had three knees. She had a disconnected blob of flesh floating by her shoulders. There were knuckles everywhere!

The caption was: "You too can have a body like mine."

@cstross wer sich da bewirbt hat zumindest eine Ausbildung bitter nötig (ebenso wie jeder, der das verbrochen hat)

[cstross@wandering.shop]

@byrnensorg It's not "artificial intelligence"; there's no intelligence there, just probability-weighted networks. The AI term is gross miss-selling that panders to a human cognitive bias.

@cstross The door in the back will not open. Or at least some centimeters <40cm until it hits the wall.

@cstross Ouch

@stx @cstross
That's all perfectly normal - at the M.C. Escher school of physiotherapy!
