A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

In case you were wondering how they would get a picture of the users face…

“DirecTV's screensavers will let a user create an AI avatar of themself by scanning a QR code on the screensaver”

The only good that can come from this is butt faces.

Maybe that will be the data which finally breaks the image generators back.

Thanks for this. I was imagining some dystopian requirement that you had to let them scan your face or pay an extra $10 a month or something.

Give them a month

Ok. But why would anyone actually do that?
