Susan Zhang from Google DeepMind says normalized synthetic marketing content retains useful information
Susan Zhang, an AI research engineer at Google DeepMind, commented during an online discussion about a video of Chongqing East Station. Viewers had flagged an odd scene of a person interacting with cement amid drone footage of the complex, construction, and trains. She stated that the growing acceptance of AI-generated promotional materials does not make the core information presented in them useless. The posts did not specify how or when the video was made.
@teortaxesTex false equivalence. marketing materials being AI slop is being normalized too, doesn't mean content is useless.
@suchenzang You do realize that this video is AI slop, right? The station is real, but not this video
@suchenzang come on I was genuinely perplexed why the guy is diving into cement
@elonmusk Why did this guy have to dive though
