Writing image descriptions for AI slop is an exercise in recursion and arbitrary repetition
(see commentary in following post)
…Convenience wants us to replace actual care and discernment with a machine generated image description which:
- includes text that isn’t present but was in the enclosing post anyway
- is of a cartoon that “May be a cartoon” and isn’t a “photo”
- cannot recognise characterisations central to the image’s satire
- repeats words that are there
- and mistakes drawn elements for non-existent Arabic text
and to tell people who need image descriptions that this is ‘better’ than nothing
…And… convenience wants us to boost a shitty description without a thought or a care
@urlyman Yeah Facebook's descriptions are neither use nor ornament. I've seen gems like "Maybe Pop art of text". Nothing about what the text even is.
