I can't believe that they are a thing ... Superhero toilets

Welcome to the future. 

We are going to see a lot more ChatGPT clickbait with auto generated images over the next year.

The AI Art and the Midjourney pages on facebook are full of amateurs making completely believable ai generated images.

And Ruck.co.uk just got caught out using ChatGPT for writing their content - they left all the tags / watermarks in place before pasting it onto their website.


And who can forget the Pope's AI image from Midjourney V4



V5 is so much better already.

I've even heard a few rumours of some criminals using weird gloves with extra / deformed fingers on so if photos go into evidence they can claim it was clearly an AI fit-up! Quite a few AI art apps have a problem with creating accurate hands.

Video evidence validity is about to become a massive battleground.

I thought that was East 17 re-formed and doing an updated "Stay" video for Xmas 2023

Don’t like them

Prefer bog standard ones

Somewhat off the point, but I always wondered about the health & safety aspects of Wolverine's "gifts" especially in regard to using public toilets.

 Say he was in the bog at a Little Chef or something, had a crap & was about to wipe his bum, then looks at the toilet door & notices that partially obscured by knob drawings & torn stickers, someone has written "wolverine blow's goat's" 
There are a couple of aspects of this that might make him angry.
Has he got the ability to ignore it, or does he have to sit there with people banging on the door till his anger subsides & his claws retract?

Gal Gadot would always be welcome in my bathroom

Doesn't he just wipe anyway, and wait for his bum to heal?

@Sporky ; but then he'd be walking around with a massive blood stain on the arse of his jeans. You're probably right though, he's likely got a spare pair in his pickup or something.

I'm just saying Wolverine - for all his virtues - is not a classy bird.

Reminded of challenging times on the bog, I identify with the Hulk one the most.

Is it supposed to look like they're bumming you? 

That’s what I thought , it would put me off going , I find it difficult enough to poo or pee if someone is around making a noise etc

We’re moored in our narrowboat outside there right now! If it’s the Barton loo anyway. Can’t believe there’s another like that.

A source of amusement for me https://www.thefretboard.co.uk/discussion/241372/learn-guitar-with-midjourney

The thing is they haven't modelled cognition so it has no idea what a hand is, or what's inside it or how it moves

I find lack of underlying understanding interesting especially when the results are so impressive. Naom Chomsky describes it as a kind of magic trick and I agree

Is there a toilet superhero?

Crapman!!!

Quoting @Offset's picture above must have jinxed me, my toilet started leaking last night...

Called a plumber first thing this morning though, and all fixed by 10.00.  Not bad on a bank holiday. 

And it turned out my toilet has an early version of a dual flush system, and had been on the half-flush setting for 35 years...  I might now be able to stop following every flush with three buckets of water.

My bog woes took the combined efforts of an engineer and his monkey (me) over an hour to resolve.  Currently awaiting re-flooring and skirting board replacement and the patio at the back of the house will require partial lifting to give access to the inspection cover currently sitting under an inch of fecking stone.  Not an episode of latrine history I wish to repeat.
