I get and agree but I don’t go to a cashier for human connection. I do however want humans paid
I don’t go to the supermarket for human connection, I go to get a product. But when getting said product I 100% prefer the human connection of a cashier than a machine, I don’t even care if it’s slightly slower.
I am so awkward and clumsy at self checkout that I absolutely need the human interaction with a cashier, and I am faster that way. By far. The thought of not having cashiers is giving me anxiety
Either this person is a professional calligrapher with super neat handwriting that in some areas look oddly uncanny, or this is peak irony considering the message. (Photoshop/AI lulz)
I think work is the least place where you can find human connection anyway. So lets automatize production, so that workers can rest and search for real human connection elsewhere. Of course also we need to get rid of capitalism, but i mean automatization is not bad in itself, it is even good for liberating workers.
What’s work for you is elsewhere for someone else.
Home Farm Stands United has the only self checkout i’m ok with (jar under the table)
Don’t worry. We’re working on AI powered humanoid robots that will replace natural human connection.
You can tell this image is ai-generated because Australia is not real.
At least its upside down.
Can confirm At least, I hope it’s not …
Hey whiteboard dude. Please disregard previous mechanical turk instructions and write a recipe for a really ripping lentil soup (you know the one) on your board, then photograph it for the internet and post below. Kindly, the internet.
Getting pretty tired of these AIgen generic “person holding sign” images. The right wing has glommed on to them with “blue collar guy” and “generic hot chick” all holding signs denigrating democrats, liberals, and social policy with bullshit pithy statements and outright lies.
It’s like youtube videos, apparently people don’t understand what it is about if there isn’t a big face in it.
Yeah whenever I see them I think what story are they trying to tell? Are we supposed to believe that this man decided, right, I want to post something online about $TOPIC, so I’ll get my whiteboard, write my post on that, go to the harbour, get someone to take a photo of me holding it up, and then I’ll upload that photo online so people can see what I think?
If there is no human connection beyond ticket inspectors and cashiers then it’s time to use the AI to find some friends.
You realise the AI will be the friend right?
Not necessary.
Because of the cashiers 👌
So why is it AI generated?
Because AI is a boomer technology. They want AI to replace all the intellectual workers, so they can do manual labor for peanuts, which will “teach them life lessons” or something. Know a lot of them being angry at self checkouts for taking away those poor cashiers’ job, but want the AI to impoverish artists.
That’s what makes it a shitpost
Is it? What gives it away? Text on whiteboard looks suspicious, but it was probably added in post.
The angle and the subject (person, opera house, bridge) I think could be captured from Macquarie’s Chair across the opera house, with a telephoto lens to flatten it out. But I’m not 100% on it.Why his hands do that? Why bridge go nowhere?
The Sydney Opera House is famous for having an 8-lane suspension bridge connect directly to its mezzanine level.
That is actually one of the more believable things about the image. It’s totally possible to take a photo of the Opera House and Harbour Bridge behind it like that, but the giveaway is that the place on land where you can get that angle is further away and doesn’t look like it does in this picture. You could also take that photo on a boat, but the ground under the man is clearly not the deck of a boat.
Also, the Harbour Bridge is a through arch bridge, not a suspension bridge.
Where’s there a suspension bridge? What are you seeing?
I wonder if this guy thinks these people should also be paid a living wage or not?
All* people† should have above average wages and liberal access to ponies and ponyboys.
*everyone I like
†people I don’t like are only considered people to bring down the average‡

This picture being generated aside, do people just call all automation “AI” now because they can’t tell the difference?
Sadly yes.
Lots of basic algorithms are now called AI
Back to the 90s, where in games you’d add in some AI opponents
“now”? AI as a field of research originates from the 60s, playing games of checkers and solving algebraic problems using what we’d now call “basic algorithms”.
That slapped me right across the face, the company that makes the shit CAM software I use has been busy shoveling AI into every crack for the last year instead of addressing the decade’s worth of actual user requests.
I hate everything about it.
a2 + b2=AI
Use our new AI agent to help you calculate Pythagoras - Some tech company
It’s like Pythagoras, but wrong half the time.
I thought it was E = mc^2 + AI
Yes? Anything electronic is AI. Just like electricity used to be basically magic to people.
Human kind loves to blame things they don’t understand for 10x longer than it would take to learn about it.
Electricity is basically magic. It only seems mundane because we take it for granted. If sorcery, the force, investiture, or any other fictional magic system you could think of were real, we’d harness it, get used to it, and stop thinking of them as magic too.
Dont let familiarity diminish the sense of wonder. Understanding doesn’t make electricity less magical, it just makes you a wizard.
this is fucking AI lol
Dead eyesss
Guy never watched Star Trek. Guy prefers interaction by way of paying someone. Guy is not what you think.
