What the kind of moral imbecile thinks sending someone an AI-generated version of her own father is a good thing?
Oh. Sloppers. Yes. Of course. They already left their morals by the door to even use the plagiarism parrots.
There are very sick people interacting with ai as if it's god. The problem goes deeper than slop
Seriously. Yes.
I have no idea why anyone would do this.
Because some people actually think that interacting with ai recreations of your loved ones is a good way to cope with their loss.
Like some people lost their shit, when GPT4 was released, because it killed their significant other.
That is positively ghoulish.
Quote of Zelda from the article:
“You’re not making art, you’re making disgusting, over-processed hotdogs out of the lives of human beings, out of the history of art and music, and then shoving them down someone else’s throat hoping they’ll give you a little thumbs up and like it. Gross.”
Perfect description.
The thing I find especially stupid about this is that there are so many hundreds hours of footage of actual Robin Williams out there already. Why would you want to fake more?
And why would they be sending them to his daughter?
Why the fuck are people so goddamn creepy?
I imagine they're expecting some beautiful moment where she messages back "Thank you for allowing me to see my dad again! This is so beautiful and you're a saint for doing this for me!"
An astounding amount of people are incapable of processing context. And are likely just layering vaguely similar events of people appreciating artistic renditions of the deceased without understanding how profoundly they screwed the pooch.

Gross indeed
Fuck AI
Even if it wasn't AI, sending someone a lifelike representation of a loved one who's passed, doing things they never did is really creepy.
You're in the right community! Welcome!
We stan Zelda Williams, any creep who does this to her gets the wall
If you do this, in any context, I hate you and want you to suffer. This is actually braindead, deplorable behavior.
About as respectful to the deceased as desecrating the corpse.
Even suicide won't get you away from this hell.
She has a point, jeeze respect the woman's boundaries
The average human is so fucking stupid.
Damn, she has a gift with words, and is using it for a good thing. Glad she learned good lessons from her parents.
AI slop is pretty much harassment.
Those fucking dickheads looking for validation.
The reduced friction to create something enables this sort of mindless interaction.
I’d rather send her Link memes (since she’s named after that Zelda). She might find it amusing but is probably tired of them by now.
Is this gif cycling faster than Neil Armstrong on purpose, or is shit broken
I think it's you?

Also AI Christopher Hitchens is equally stupid...
It is a massive insult to anyone's memory.
Yah, stop that, it is gross!
Streisand effect may play against her, unfortunately
That's not really that effect, but more of a stalker problem. Why would anyone think she wants to see video of her dad saying things he didn't say? And guaranteed that the comedy being done is nowhere near his level.
Robin Williams was a comedic giant with shoes no AI could ever hope to fill.
Getting AI of him would be like wanting name brand Nutella, and then going to Family Dollar, only to find a knock off brand, but then finding out Family Dollar doesn't even stock the knock off brand. They only have the Ali Express version of the knock off brand.
I think I'd rather just watch Mork and Mindy with the real Robin Williams.
Why would anyone think she wants to see video of her dad saying things he didn't say?
some people did, they are trolls with bad taste, now more of them will be aware of this target, thus the Streisand effect may occur, but i hope to be wrong
That's not how the Streisand Effect works.
would've been more useful if you described why, pretty sure could've be achieved with a short phrase
Zelda is not trying to keep people from knowing about something. She's telling them that what they're already doing sucks. If people decide to troll and do it more, it's not the Streisand Effect, it's just them being assholes.

She should sue AI companies for using her dad image.
MLK's family said the same thing. People really don't have any basic decency anymore.
Alas they often deport the ones who do.
Who would think that would be appreciated?
People who suck at being human.
This is so fucked up, digital necrophilia is a better word for this ai induced hell
they sent AI sextapes? i hope not. that's gross indeed
Jesus, I can't even go back and watch any of his stuff to this day.
Why not? He may have moved on to his next life, but his work persists. All the recorded kind, hilarious, creative things he wrote and performed... He would still want us to enjoy them, right? And I personally think that still continues to improve the world, even with him no longer in it...
I formed a pretty intense attachment to him the moment he first appeared on Happy Days.
I wasn't a fanboy for life or anything. He just had an ability to convince me he was genuinely a beautiful human being.
I had watched reruns of Mork & Mindy when I was little, but didn't know that it was a spinoff from Happy Days. This nugget led me to watching this, and it was amazing. Thanks.
I learned the phrase spinoff from that happening. I guess I started to love comedians because of all that too. Refuge from the 70s for a 9 year old, I guess.
Black Mirror saw this coming.
