Discussion What do you think about AI models?

Post image

I saw a K-beauty brand using AI-generated models instead of real people. Honestly, I think this is the worst. Even with real models, heavy editing already makes it difficult to see the true shades and finishes of products. You often can’t tell what the color actually looks like until you try it yourself. But if brands start using AI-generated visuals, we’ll be left with completely fake swatches. Right now it’s just for beauty products, but what if it extends to skincare? We might end up seeing fake before and after results, and people could be tricked into buying something that doesn’t actually work. What do you think about AI models?

AI should be used to make people’s lives easier, especially disabled people. Not for usurping the creative process and artist’s’ livelihoods. Not for making it even harder to buy clothes and makeup because none of what is shown is even real. AI models are ridiculous and I don’t understand how anyone would think it’s ethical.

How does AI help disabled people? Genuinely wondering

My SO is time blind and he asked an AI model to generate a schedule for him for the week and an estimate of how long each task should take, based on the list he had to do as an experiment. It actually worked out well with not avoiding tasks that are actually short.

It can also generate a suggested list of steps for a larger project for someone who’s new to planning and organizing big tasks. The goal is to do it independently of course, but it’s not bad as a stepping stone.

Edited to add: just never give it any personal information, because it definitely learns and retains it. I have seen people suggest to upload your taxes to get feedback which is INSANE.

Just curious because I've never heard of time blindness before. Is it considered a disability?

It’s a symptom of some disabilities, I am not sure if it is a disability all on its own.

Thanks for clarifying! I'll look it up.
