Meta has been granted a patent outlining an AI system capable of simulating a user’s activity on social media to post after their death.

Some fucked up shit.

This is a real "AI" ad from the US government about the end of the mandatory use of the auto start-stop.

This is from the official Whitehouse Instagram.

Only things I can see that gives it away that the video is generated is the red car's brake lights being on while accelerating. The obvious stereotypes of bule haired lesbians vs the blonde.

Also they have no insignias on the cars but that's definitely a Prius and idk what the red car is, the red car might not exist in real life.

Spoting generated videos is going to get harder. However if it's obvious propaganda from the state then you should be suspicious.

It's impressive for generated video even though it is stupid as fuck. I won't get too in the weeds about why this is stupid as the point of the post is more about the use of AI in state sponsored propaganda.

Just to get it out of the way, here is why this is a stupid policy:

• [Auto stop helps fuel economy by 7% - 26%](https://www/. consumerreports.org/cars/fuel-economy-efficiency/does-start-stop-function-really-improve-cars-fuel-economy-a1028235974/)
• my 10+ year old car has auto stop, it can be disabled with a button, and if it needs to turn on the ac, the engine will auto start.
• Auto stop has nothing to do with the cost of cars increasing, it's the regime's terrible policies and other factors that have driven prices up.
• Hybrid cars like the Prius will use the electric engine at a stop.
• forcing car companies to change features because the US president said so will increase manufacturing costs and prices.

Doom scrolling is doomed, if the EU gets its way.

black and red my beloveds

I use a few social media platforms at the same time. I'm used to seeing the same things on each platform. That's how the internet has been for years - you read the same things on the same five sites.

To be fully transparent, Lemmy isn't at the top. I don't post much and I lurk. Sometimes I post a comment here and there.

But this past week, I'm seeing more and more interesting content in the "Everything" section of Lemmy that I didn't see in my other social media feeds. New communities and more interesting convos.

Uncertain if the fediverse has gotten a wave of new posters, some algorithm has changed, or every other social media company is sucking more and more thanks to America Team Police...

Just wanted to share my extremely limited anecdotal non-fact checked viewpoint.

it's like a all you can eat skin buffet. i'm over here with the first sunburn of my life (thanks Mexico ) peeling off 2 inch pieces of skin from my chest and just shoving them into my mouth like some malnourished child. when the peeling skin runs out idk what i'm gonna do

Some things from me:

• Early on, darkening of the perineal raphe was quite a surprise (aka the "sack stripe"). It's not something I've seen mentioned in most HRT guides.
• How incredibly unreliable my own perception of how feminine I look is. People were treating me as a woman well before I could see even hints of it in my face.
• It's nice that women will sit next to me on the train now. As the carriage fills up I quite often find myself in the center of a cluster of women, which is very affirming.
• Makeup areas in bathrooms. I had no idea this was a thing, and they're great!
