I feel like that “corporate wants you to find the differences between these two photos” meme. Isn’t everyone in those photos, in both the top and bottom rows, white?
Edit: Ah, I see, OP has given this a highly misleading title. The “whiteness” of the faces is not actually particularly relevant. In another thread someone summarized what the article is actually about:
For anyone who doesn’t want to read the paper, they basically took an 60 white men and 60 white women, and showed them a whole bunch of white faces, half of which were generated by AI. It turns out that AI faces were rated as more human-like than actual humans, and they had some hypothesis why. Principally that AI, by its nature, generates images close to “average”, while real people tend to have features that are not “average”. The reason the study focused on white people is that most AI have been trained on white faces, so AI tends to do better with white faces.
Yeah, and it was an ongoing issue with Reddit. Probably still is. Sure, small, niche subreddits that had active moderation were generally free of the scourge. But it was quite a common phenomenon across the site, in my experience.

An op? Making a misleading title? On Lemmy?
Man, it’s as if the severe lack of moderation and rules that so many people wanted when moving from Reddit is hurting the quality of posts on here.
Fr fr nobody ever wrote a clickbait headline on reddit.
Every culture thinks they invented the bag full of bags.
You know there is a significant difference between it being a thing you might see occasionally versus an ongoing issue?

how is it only a thing you might see occasionally on reddit? I saw misleading titles daily when I still used that site.
I tried guessing from the ArsTechnica article and got a whopping 1 out of 8 correct.
@cyu Could you add “white” between “actual” and “human”?
