According to reddit (I hate that seemingly the info was there) they found her tiktok where there was a video celebrating her 17th birthday. So maybe you're misremembering, for your sake.

But tiktok would also explain the face filter which in turn explains the commenter thinking it was an AI generated video.

Blame SEO. Website creators either abuse SEO keywords or they get no traffic from search engines.

That first video is older than generative AI, but I have no idea what it's called

I feel like this will be proven in 40 years in a research paper about male internet culture and this is the comment that started it

I couldn't read any further, so thanks for more context. I would really love it if we'd share more open articles here so there is the full context to digest and discuss

I didn't see anything in the article and the X embeds are just text to me, so here's a video: https://youtu.be/cu9OnPo5IIE

If you like to stay in good spirits, don't read the comments.

When I initially clicked on the article, it had related articles at the bottom, one of which explaining that the account is a satire account. It's not there when I click the link again, but I did find it online

Yeah, Poe's law also applies I suppose. Anything satirical is taken for truth by people that already believe or want to believe the thing being satirized. Or it already exists but worse, like you mention.

It's satire

• this is a member only article so people are going to mention the (pay) wall
• this is about a tweet from 2020
• what does expressing overthrowing a country in 2020 have to do with c/technology?

It's telling how you get downvoted, but someone saying the same shit about Apple in this thread gets upvoted.

I hate shitty practices like everybody else, but please keep them to the same standard.

Which is what everyone with some sense predicted, except Xitter exploded into drama from faking proof that it was directly copying Pokémon to claiming wild things like using gen AI to create the models.

These things are easily verified (or rather, debunked), but it was already too late. I lost a lot of faith in some gaming journalists as they kept perpetuating the wild takes and claims.

We'll do this all again soon with another game and we will not learn from it.
