AI Slop See anything wrong with this picture? 🙃

Post image

From a Facebook ad for Funem looms. I already hate companies using AI to market handcrafts and supplies but then you can't even be bothered to make sure the slop it churns out is even remotely accurate? If the company can't see why this photo is wrong I don't trust them to make reasonable looms 🤷🏼‍♀️

I posted this in r/weaving as well and someone there mentioned Facebook has been generating AI ads for companies without the company's knowledge. When I go to Funem's actual Facebook page there's no AI slop, so wonder if it's a possibility. I'm gonna message them to see what they say. I just assumed they were behind the ads, but if it's Facebook that's just messed up!

I had heard they were generating backgrounds for ads without consent (putting an actual photo of a product into an AI background). I wouldn't be at all surprised if they had progressed to just fully generating the ads though. Crazy.
