As I read I was thinking this article had been AI-generated. It's too empty, a lot of descriptions of the same images it had just shown, and then some commentary about how they are fake, then repeat and repeat again.
Now I'm confused, was it AI-generated or not?
- 01HNNWZ0MV43FF 2y ago> a lot of descriptions of the same images it had just shown This is an accessibility thing that seems to be very popular on Mastodon and I guess the author put it in the prose directly instead of as mouseover text. It helps for people using screen readers, people who are in text browsers, people who don't load images by default, and funny enough, AI scrapers.
- kennyloginz 2y agoI would bet it’s ai generated.
- siva7 2y agoI had the same thought. An ai-generated blog about ai-generated fake content getting upvoted on hn with decent engagement. Here we are.
- spzb 2y agoAuthor here. I definitely wrote it myself. As another commentator says, this is an accessibility thing. Individual images have alt tags but the Ghost gallery component didn't have an easy way to add those.
