because if you used AI for that they cannot know what else you used AI for and so they cannot know if they can trust the core of your content and its message

hope that helps

My boss is a musician in a band. He's still mad about drum machines and doesn't think LLMs can make real music.

He's used LLMs to create "art" to go along with some of our vulnerability meetings and thinks they will completely replace programmers.

I had a talk with him about it. I explained the Gell-Mann amnesia effect and how it can lead you to believe genAI is uniquely bad at the things you know a lot about, but somehow good at everything else. He stopped making "art" after that, at least.

It's very easy to fall into that trap because the people who know what they are doing make it look easy when they do it.

How could you trust an article that had no AI image in it?

I've never understood this. I struggle to say I'm a musician, but I enjoy music and playing instruments.

Music is hard, and I know because I do it, but also Visual art, writing and other arts are also hard! If they were easy I'd do them.

It'd be awesome to make beautiful paintings and write interesting stories but its hard, and it takes significant time and effort to learn and improve.

I made a good point, that seems to be proven by your inability to address it and I was very likely correct about you which is why you are now so offended.

About 5 minutes in, I noticed something off about one of the graphics. I paused and studied it, and sure enough, it was AI. Then, I went back and looked more closely at some of the others, and whatever wasn't just scraped from Google Images was AI. I was so disappointed, because it was a topic I was interested in, too, but I just stopped the video because I couldn't trust it.
