If I were someone's only stalker, I'd be absolutely hopeless at finding their location from images. I'm really bad at it if I don't know the location first hand
But now, suddenly with AI I'm close to an expert. The accessibility of just uploading an image to ChatGPT means everyone has an easy way of abusing it, not just a small percentage of the population
- brookst 1y agoSo I guess the evil we're worried about is stalkers who are bad at guessing locations, bad enough with tech that they don't know about geoguessr websites and subreddits, but good enough with tech to use LLMs?
- simonw 1y agoGiven that ChatGPT supposedly has "500 million weekly actives" (recent Sam Altman quote) I think what you're describing there is a pretty likely persona.
- AstroBen 1y agoScreenshot / save photo -> add to chatgpt chat -> "where is this taken?" There couldn't possibly be a lower barrier to doing that ChatGPT is also currently the #1 free app on ios and android in the US. Hardly a niche tool only tech people know about, compared to the 129k people on that subreddit
