“Stanford student Billy Ramirez, a member of the class of 2027, told the publication that he remembered posing for the original photo, only to discover that he had been replaced by an AI-generated Black woman."

It is worth remembering that AI replaces the ENTIRE image, even if you ask it to change only one thing. That’s why every single person in the image looks different.
If that is in fact how the system in question works. There are systems which allow you to edit regions, like Affinity
We know that’s how the system works by the fact that every single person in the image looks different.
We know how THIS system works - but Affinity is just one example of how you can modify an area with AI, not just the whole image.
Are you asserting how every piece of software works, based on a single image example? Because that’s wildly incorrect.
We aren’t talking about other systems. Don’t move the goalposts.
As a neutral observer, you clearly and unambiguously moved the goalpost.
This article is about Stanford U using AI on a photo of their students. No one was talking about what system they used. Then lIlIlIlIlIlIl@lemmy.world started talking about Affinity, which is making it seem like people who are pro AI are moving the goalpost to avoid talking about the issue. The issue being that AI is being used inappropriately.
It seems there are different AI systems. One that can modify a specific region and one that needs to modify the whole image. I doubt that anyone who came to this post cares what system Stanford used. They just hate that this is happening.
You are moving the goalpost, changing the subject, and talking about a new subject. When Susaga@sh.itjust.works brought this up, you did turn on him and continued to talk about AI systems.
The Onion already covered this 26 years ago: https://theonion.com/black-guy-photoshopped-in-1819565862/
i was like no way the onion talked about photoshop 26 years ago! 2000 was 26 years ago… shit
I like how the AI also changed his shirt and removed the guy’s headphones
When I see conservative political or ideological ads with black people, I assume they’re (desperate) actors, but AI works too.

No: AI Acceptable: Photoshop Great: GIMP/Krita
Somebody hasn’t used photoshop in a while.
What a time to be alive
Also why is no one talking about the fact that they made the young women skinnier. Young women already feel have unrealistic expectations without AI in the mix.
It’s not new. Once it became possible to shop hi-res photographs, it became standard to narrow fashion models slightly in order to make them look even thinner.
I learned about it from documentaries intended to highlight the unrealistic appearance expectations that are driven by media.
