    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

        Look at the phones, if nothing else. Some look like they are on Twitter, and none are showing anything like what the cameras would be pointed at.

          Somehow we're still in the infancy of fake information on the internet... only going to get worse with improving AI. I have no idea even if the picture in that original tweet was copied directly from the Kamala Kamp or not.

          As @Mik said, skeptical about everything now. Makes me want to (and continue to) tune in less and less. Life is short, spend time with family, hobbies, community...

              Yeah - politics is turning into reality-TV level fluff. There was at least a facade of higher ideals when I was younger. Kids growing up these days must think it's always been a clown show.

                                  No, just a guy that doesn’t like seeing photorealism being passed off as real. I commented above that I don’t know how big the crowds were. For all I know, those portraits were created based on actual photographs, but those first two aren’t photos. They are like my AI generated, but are not photographs. Like I said, they look a lot like the Alex Ross comics I used to collect.

                                  The other post was from a friend that ran a couple of pictures through an app that checks to see if an image was AI generated. The app identified them as AI images above a 90% probability.

                                          It's always been a clown show. You just want to try to make sure the best clown for the country wins.

                                          Bozo or Pennywise. What a great choice.

                                          Bud, you've got lots of room to talk. Go to the chalkboard and write "Peace in our time" five hundred times...

                                          As far as witty comebacks goes, that's right up there with Roseanne 2018.
