@CarstenBoll I was at a dance class and someone kept apologizing to the instructor about doing it wrong and I really, really wanted to jump in and say something along these lines, but never found a great time.

@futurebird none of this has anything to do with being tracked, or being exposed as a fraud or whatever. I just hate that companies get to make money to make the mess AND to be the "savior" who cleans it up

@futurebird I don't like the idea of watermarking because it's going to allow companies to make money in the slop creation and the slop detection sides of things - anyone who wants to detect AI will need to pay EVERY AI Company to check against their own watermarking keys, which means only the rich will be able to detect slop. Plus from what I have read detecting the slop is as computationally expensive as producing the slop in the first place, so it could double the impacts we are seeing.

@vapaad what a happy picture!
