A few days ago X introduced a new AI Image Editing button that lets any user modify images posted by others, even without the original uploader’s consent. Image owners are not notified when edits are made, and the feature is enabled by default with no opt-out option (at least not so far).
How are people still using this shithole
Racism.
ive kept my acct so I can go read shit there when I want to see what someone wrote for a specific reason.
this’d be the camel’s straw for my account as I used to post creative stuff
I use xcancel.com for that.
oh right, took me a moment. you can see tweets without an account with this?
Yes
Apathy
Addiction
There is an opt-out. It’s called deleting your account. An people should do it.
No different to saving the image, making the changes, reuploading
Maybe even better if the credits to the original are preserved
Omg what horror. Have you discovered that you can click and drag any image from anywhere into photo editing software or ChatGPT or the likes? Whatever shall we do?! We have to make images uneditable somehow. This is a complete tragedy.
For real, why should I care?
If people figure out how to not use social media, the world would be in shambles
With decent prompting skills, someone who knows what they’re doing has an easy time fabricating realistic looking photographs that are nearly indistinguishable from real life. We’re entering a post-truth era.
