Yeah what’s stopping me from stealing my neighbors and wearing it /s

Based on stories from friends (very trustworthy source) something they can it’s AI generated or compare it your posts to search for a match

Idk how true that is but it’s what I’ve heard

Aren’t AI tools supposed to be bad with adversarial examples? Someone could make an app that generates an image which (independently) appears to be you and also appears to be old enough.

I’m glad they at least tried to make an alternative to the stupid AI estimation. Even if this is hardly any better. I wonder if a VISA Debit card would pass muster, or do they have those in the UK.

Of course, the primary harm of kids not being able to use social media is also pretty significant—but there’s only so much you can do when you’re actually breaking the law. Except switch to dread, I guess.
