A.I. photos are flooding social media and contributing to an Internet where we can't believe what we see. Spotting A.I. 📷s is an important media literacy skill.
None of us have time to research every image we see. We just need people to notice BEFORE THEY LIKE OR SHARE that an image might be fake. If unsure, check it or don't share.
I've started drawing some comics explaining the basic of AI spot-checking and media literacy in the age of disinformation. Follow along here or on my Twitter.
library and information science is fucking crazy. im now reminded of an essay i was reading in the archive journal that strongly implied what i guess was supposed to be a known phenomenon of archivists being sexually attracted to archives (not the materials they contain -- the archives themselves) and just passed right on like it was nothing. The essay wasn't even about that. Of course, this is not surprising to the average nsf(t4t)umblr user, but you gotta understand this was in a real peer reviewed journal
Can we normalize this?
Like please please please??
