"Skeptics can win too! Ring is also offering a $500 Amazon gift card for the most creative fake."​
I expect PhotoShop sales to increase dramatically over the next few weeks... :lmao:
 
Photoshop won't help since they are cloud based and the original will be sitting on their servers somewhere LOL
Cloud based ?....:wtf:

AI is going to ruin creativity. The way humans learn to produce works that appeal to other humans is to iterate, and then gather feedback on those iterations. My daughter draws multiple pictures daily and solicits feedback.

AI doesn't sleep though, and it can iterate thousands of times per second, and get feedback from millions of people, and it doesn't fall for lies about the quality...

We're entering an era where video proof isn't proof of anything. "It wasn't me" will become a legitimate argument to "I caught you on camera".

Aliens will always be fake news.
 
Talk about luck! I caught this just a little while ago on my Reolink doorbell.....I pasted in the logo it so they'd think I have a Ring....do you think they can tell? :wtf:

Did they specify what kind? Plenty of aliens go by my house...
 
Not to sound ignorant....but the first thing i thought of when i heard this on the news is people are going to be submitting pics of "illegal aliens" instead of E.T. being that it is such a hot topic in today's age. I did double check the site and it looks like it does specifies E.T. Im sure the memes are probably going wild.

EDIT: Lol, my point exactly ... see post above.
 
I'm certain the left-leaning Ring owner, Amazon.com, would have used their preferred terms "migrants" or "undocumented immigrants" if they were to be included as "aliens", illegal or otherwise....
 
It's a nice marketing gimmick just to get more people to buy their stuff. :lmao: :lmao:

Especially with Amazon Prime Days coming up LOL

Just think ... some day referring to E.T. as "alien" will probably become derogatory. I'll revert to calling them prawns ala district 9.
