    Has anyone else noticed some delivery apps using AI generated images for food items when a restaurant doesn’t have an actual photo?

    Always looks fucking awful too. How is that in any way helpful? “Here is what a slice of pizza generally looks like”. Cool. Thanks, I guess.

      This made me realize, the only last remaining good thing about mcdonalds, the art of making the fake food good looking photos, will soon be replaced by actual AI slop.

        I much prefer AI slop for menu thumbnails to carefully crafted lies. at least I know it’s inaccurate

          carefully crafted lies are at least a bias approximation of the actual product done by people that know what the actual product look like. That’s still better than something misleading that not everyone can identify.

      Reminds me of the Amazon product pages where the images are clearly ones where the product was photoshopped onto some other image. Can’t even be bothered to use the product for real and take some photos? I hate everyone involved in that shit.
