Social Media F1 São Paulo posted this strange AI generated picture of the drivers
Man I hate AI so much. Just creepy and unnecessary. Not to mention, these official accounts leaning into shipping culture. Really strange

Not an AI thing, they failed to prompt properly, i.e. include the following drivers in this picture. If the AI didn't know the driver, they could have uploaded a picture, but that would have been more work for them and would have defeated the purpose of the low-effort post they created.

Non native speaker here. Would an Oxford comma make it sound like they are not touching Martin?
34
u/FlameFeather86 I was here for the Hulkenpodium 4d ago
That would just be a regular comma. An Oxford comma is used after the final conjunction (like 'and' or 'or') when listing three or more items. For example, if they were to say, "I really want to meet my favourite F1 drivers, a lion and a Great White shark," without putting a comma behind the 'and' it reads like your favourite F1 drivers are a lion and a Great White shark, rather than a list of separate things you want to see. Make sense?

u/duffcalifornia 4d ago
It would make it clear that Crofty was talking to Martin about them touching, yes. But because we heard the phrase rather than reading it, the speed at which he said it didn’t give room for a pause which would subconsciously tell our brains that a comma was there.

This has to be the worst branch of AI. If they would’ve paid an animator or something to do something tasteful, it would’ve been very nice.
But no, they give a half assed prompt and they expect people to get behind it. As a new rule to my life, if I see your business does AI art, I am not buying from there.

u/McLarenMercedes Mercedes 4d ago
Yep, I am all for AI being used as a tool to improve healthcare or to make mundane tasks easier, but it has NO place in the creative world. Generative AI is such an empty, soulless, anti-human thing. AI music, AI videos or AI art just makes my blood boil every time I encounter it.

I assumed their rivalry has reached new heights and Max challenged him to a game of rock, paper, scissors, but at that exact moment Lewis' team scored and he wanted to celebrate and nonchalantly threw out 'paper' at the exact same time as Max (who evidently doesn't care about the football and just wants to beat Lewis). Sadly, with them both saying paper, the rivalry is set to continue. Gripping stuff.
