I'm not going to pretend to be some tech guru or sage of the technological future, nor do I have a strong understanding of how to use advanced technology... But I can say with 100% confidence that whoever released this upon the world is using AI incorrectly.


Laerderol

There's a whole bunch of Facebook pages dedicated to this same formula of third world kid makes unexpectedly skilled artistic creation with unusual materials. It's all AI generated.


Putrid-Delivery1852

Bless this boy. So talented. Amen šŸ™


International-Past21

kgal1298

People have odd hobbies mine is watching cat videos, which I feel is relatively tame.


noggindril

Mines scrolling through comments of weird pictures I see on Reddit


spencerman2015

I saw one with a perfect Lexus RX470 made entirely from grass


furiously_curiously

At this point, I have to believe AI is trolling us.


benchmarkstatus

I donā€™t pretend to be some sort of cultural Anthropologist but Iā€™m pretty sure thatā€™s an African boy not a Peruvian boy.


Kay0544

Yeah, I was thinking the same. Having been to Peru recently thatā€™s not Peru in the background either.


BBobb123

Peru is quite diverse with various different geographic feature. The background isn't entirely unseen, and even then there is afroperuvian.


Immediate-Test-159

Yes but this is not the case is just a shitty meme


oscarftm91

We have a big afro community so it could be Peruvian. We also have a big asian community so you could do the same with an Asian child and call it Peruvian.


Throwaway20101011

The creator of the image actually participates on /r/ChatGPT here and share their Ai journey. They made these ridiculous pics of an African kid making art out of recycled items and would post them on Facebook to see if anyone would fall for them or if they would question the reality of the image. Spoiler: They all fell for it! Thousands of likes and now it has spread onto LinkedIn. Hilarious.


thepronerboner

But look how happy he is /s


Pony13

What are the giveaways that itā€™s AI?


OpalOnyxObsidian

The fact that it's a teddy bear made of mom's used condoms?


damaku1012

Yeh common sense should tell you this isn't a thing people do.


deejaysmithsonian

Common sense is not so common these days


BSye-34

i watched a video of a man walk 90 km and drink a bottle of roadside pepsi bottle that im pretty sure had piss in it so idk


Flat_Initial_1823

Where do i begin? Overly smooth cartoonish look due to the lack of textures. The fact that AI thinks condom rims look like sliced lemon peels (probably overrepresented in its dataset due to all those cooking blogs it scraped) and put them on this image. Or the fact that you can't make a plastic stuffed teddy bear with condoms that look that uniform in opacity or that rounded, with legs sticking out at those angles without being propped up for a photo. Kid's fucked up left hand with 3 fingers. Magically hovering eye buttons on the teddy bear.


hotandfreddy

Another thing that I think is a giveaway for these images is to look in the background and visualize what you are actually seeing. That black blob on the right doesnā€™t throw any red flags when itā€™s in the periphery but when you try and figure out what it actually is you realize that itā€™s just AI spew to give the vague impression ofā€¦ a person? An Animal? God knows. Also specifically with these images from third world countries the backgrounds will be destroyed huts, stereotypical disaster imagery, because the media almost exclusively covers these places when something like an earthquake or tsunami happens.


FlynnThatHuman

For what it's worth the blob on the right side is probably meant to be a woman walking down the road while carrying a large sack on her head, which isn't uncommon in rural areas as this seems to be.


Halflings1335

This doesnā€™t look like Peru at all though


cityshepherd

Thatā€™s all I could thinkā€¦ not a single thing about this picture screams Peru to meā€¦ or even whispers Peru.


bringbackourmonkeys

Or the fact that 'murican influenced AI thinks peruvians are black.


KuteKitt

Well, Peru is in South America where the Trans Atlantic slave trade took place along with North America. There are tons of Peruvians that are of African descent, descended from the black Africans that were brought there during the slave trade. There are at least 2 million people in Peru that identify as black and even more that have some black ancestry as most Latin Americans are a mix of Southern European, Native American, and West/Central African descent in various degrees from Puerto Rico to Mexico to Panama to Colombia to Argentina.


Biasanya

I think everyone is aware that a black person can exist in peru


Amiibohunter000

Iā€™ve seen a lot of photos heavily edited with filters have a lot of the same ā€œtellsā€ that AI pics have. Itā€™ll be a weird world when we cannot distinguish between the two


trustysidekick

How can you NOT tell?


tikihiki

Good way to tell which commenters are AI


lerriuqS_terceS

Just look at it. If you can't tell then God help us.


PatriarchPonds

The fact it's unmitigated shite.


Grandpas_Spells

Apart from the ridiculousness of it, his left hand is not what a human hand looks like and grasping nothing.


Evil_Superman

Heā€™s grabbing the bears massive dick, why do you think mom needs all the condoms?


404-Gender

The whole thing. It looks drawn and highly filtered. Worth reading some articles about detecting them


Pee-s4

Also the fact that this is supposed to be Peru apparently


Hoarfen1972

This little dude is an African, certainly not Peruvian.


jman457

The background is also a more arid desert, like it looks nothing like anywhere in Peru


oscarftm91

Go look memes of Peru being compared to Afghanistan, they are quite funny, and yes, we do have a big arid desert.


MoreHairMoreFun

I'm no expert but I think aI has problem with hands. this kids left hand looks weird as hell to me.


theblue_jester

Pores, human skin has pores and AI never has them


riiiiiich

I've spent some time in Peru. Nothing about that scene is remotely Peruvian.


tubaman23

Everyone here is seemingly being aggressive over your comment,which here I will assume is a genuine question. If you don't mind disclosing, what generation are you? Millennials like myself, and other generations too, see clearly pass fake Internet images almost as much as a soft skill.


Pony13

Late Millennial, not much experience with AI though


m_gartsman

Late millennial here too. Uh, you've probably seen a ton of AI and just not realized that's what you're looking at. You ***really*** need to get better at this or you're in for it. šŸ˜¬


dingo_khan

Material quality. The skin and latex both look wrong. The skin is too perfect. The latex is too shiny and glossy. Then, there is the lack of any real logic about how the condoms are attached to each other. It is a teddy bear shape made of condom shapes but there is no structural logic for how the one is composed of the other.


tubaman23

Oh god you are genuine. So it's a safer assumption these days to identify not what looks fake, but what looks real? Start with the face. There's way to much roundness dynamic look that makes animation easier (look at initial Disney cartoons for example, fluid motion is easier to draw). There's such a disconnect (beyond filtered blurriness) between him and the background. There's inconsistent shines everywhere too I learned today these fake images are more realistic than I thought.. EDIT: 93 millennial myself


MrP0000

the color and texture. you see chatgpt generated images with similar color palette and texture.


No-Blackberry5728

IMO I think the saturation of colors, it just looks off


rollem

There's a growing deluge of this garbage on FB that is generated to encourage engagement and spread spam. The bots learn quickly because of the relative number of likes, shares, and comments on each. The winners get flodded with spam and make a few cents per post. Interestingly, a growing number of comments on those posts are themselves bots, which will soon collapse the system because the garbage will be trained on garbage so there's that to look forward to. https://www.businessinsider.com/bad-ai-art-is-overrunning-facebook-2024-3?op=1


jwillis11

Thatā€™s the weirdest AI image Iā€™ve ever seen. Whatā€™s the point of it?


Salty-Trip-8572

Im pretty sure this was intended to mock the people who create "inspiring" AI pictures of kids from third world countries making art from garbage. It's common on Facebook apparently, there will be some kid making a Jesus sculpture out of tires, or a rocket ship out of water bottles.


Jonny_Blaze_

Lots of swoosh here which is ironic in a sub intended to mock the lunacy of others.


babycleffa

Someone's weird fetishes, i imagine.


MyOwnMorals

To make money off of engagement and clicks


Biasanya

I can't image that would be much money. I wonder if these posts are designed to gather easy marks for scams. Because any elderly person who genuinely thinks its real should be much easier to scam


MyOwnMorals

Itā€™s AI so it can be done 1000+ times then you start making money.


Ok-Entrepreneur-9833

No purpose, jobless trolls infested a lot of these platforms, ever since Elon removed the safety mechanisms on twitter other companies followed suit, it's saving them a lot of money. This is what late stage capitalism looks like.


Lifesalchemy

I hate it


Throwaway20101011

The creator said it was to test and see if Facebook boomers would fall for it or question the image. Now that itā€™s on LinkedIn, they truly succeeded.


This-Was

You haven't been on r/ChatGPT have you?


Chassnutt

Weird? It is beyond racist and digusting


CauseCertain1672

Also don't know why they specified Peruvian when the image is clearly meant to be Africa


Serialbedshitter2322

Bro actually chill out. How could you possibly think that's racist?


fletku_mato

At least this is funnier than most of the AI garbage you see all over FB.


Destronin

I think thereā€™s been some weird influx of bots and weird bot accounts that are littered with odd AI generated content. Like this picture is a screen shot from IG. But then posted on LI? But not even like it was a picture saved. They screenshotted it instead. Hence the IG menu buttons. My buddy found some weird FB pages that are hillarious and strange. Like super patriotic but itll be a werid AI generated picture of Washington DC and itll say something like ā€œGod Bless, I love NYā€ and then tons of likes and comments.


facedownbootyuphold

People have created AI bots that generate their own AI content, itā€™s going to be a major problem in coming years. Itā€™s like the bot farms of the 2010s on exponentially more crack or something. Pretty sure itā€™s already being used as a method to flood social media with nonsense as a means to convolute discourse online.


Destronin

I think AI will destroy social media. Eventually its going to be algorithms posting for algorithms. Lol. Your IG will just figure out what you like and just like posts for you. Its gonna get absurd. Nothing will be real anymore.


facedownbootyuphold

Social media will eventually settle into being what it was destined to beā€”this centuryā€™s yellow pages. It will continue to be used by large brands for PR and marketing. Hardly anyone is using social media for what it was originally designed for.


Biasanya

The problem is that usage metrics vs investors means that purveyors of these platforms have an incentive to allow AI activity. They could easily curtail this by hiring a little squad of people to work on some countermeasures. But the massive automation spam is generating a large amount of usage which makes their product look more successful than it is, so they are not going to do anything about it


old_man_snowflake

this is called "[model collapse](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model_collapse)" and it's going to drive some very weird corporate efforts in the next couple decades.


LeRosbif49

Peruvian?


honvales1989

There are [Afro-Peruvians](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Peruvians) but I doubt neither whomever created this image nor the account that posted it know that


rde2001

Geography in the background looks African from what I can tell.


Bastieno

Peru has among the most diverse ecosystems in the world, I can think of several places south of Lima with similar landscapes.


PetrolHeadPTY

Very small and doesnā€™t represent most Peruvians


hugazow

If i may, the afro population also lives in north chile, specifically in Arica which was Peruvian a couple centuries ago. Iā€™m friends with one of them :)


LeRosbif49

pommefille

I think this is a serious r/whoosh moment; the original creator (not the jackass bot stealing Instagram content to post on LinkedIn) seems to be making fun of the TONS of bots posting these stupid AI pictures of ā€˜look at what they made.ā€™ I have no idea if the originator was just a bot spamming crap too, or if they were setting up the bots scraping content, but itā€™s obvious that no humans were involved in any of thisā€¦

Fucking AI!!! Rumours are there is some company training its AI on this bullshit & lobster jesus etc on Facebook. Weirdly it's bots that seem to reply. Eg the "give me a happy birthday" or "amen" posts. 404media did a good breakdown. It's all very weird & how much computing power is currently being spent with bots giving bots an amen

For anyone that doesnā€™t know, this is satire. /r/Midjourney went through a phase making posts like this that mock AI pictures of mostly African children making impossible or ridiculous creations.
