AI image slop vs physiotherapy!

An ad (in German) apparently for training in physiotherapy. Most of it is an AI-generated pseudo photograph of a smiling physiotherapist helping a client, lying down, raise their left leg vertically. Although how they got their foot attached backwards is an interesting question ...

My favourite AI attempt was a woman crouching at the starting line of a running track.

She had three knees. She had a disconnected blob of flesh floating by her shoulders. There were knuckles everywhere!

The caption was: "You too can have a body like mine."

@cstross Be warned. This is what happens when you visit an unqualified physiotherapist. The patient seems to have severe oedema in her left ankle too. It’s thicker than my thigh.

I'd expect this sort of thing from a chiropractor, but never from a real field like physiotherapy.

@cstross reminds of when I subluxed my left knee and while recovering, read some books on knee surgery. Recalling a particularly evocative X-Ray of a downhill skier who jammed his ski in a tree trunk and consequently found his patella on the *back* of his leg.

@cstross Far too much faith is placed in ai for images. How on earth did we get to the point where people assume ai knows how bodies or clocks or indeed any devices move or work. It's only harvesting images, using recognisable sets of pixels in proximity to other pixels. The real surprise is how ai gets any image vaguely correct in the end, even with chance, but yet people are blindly assuming it knows everything about the content of the images it steals.

@byrnensorg It's not "artificial intelligence"; there's no intelligence there, just probability-weighted networks. The AI term is gross miss-selling that panders to a human cognitive bias.

What's confusing is that the original training advertisement (going by the text in the image) does not have this image or anything like it.

@cstross I can't help but wonder if an artist was asked to do images in GenAI and decided to do as little as possible for quality control, sabotaging the system as an art form.
