        South Park just used AI to skewer Trump so it has its uses. We have to give upstanding citizens like Insane Clown Posse the benefit of the doubt.

          People keep calling that AI but is it really? That naked Trump looked like a real person with a digital face replacement. That tech has been around since Forrest Gump. I mean is this scene now retroactively considered AI? I’d hate for future generations to believe that someone just sat down at a PC in 1997, farted, and typed “replace fat dude with giant worm creature and make it look cheap and shitty” and the computer just shat it out.

          When they can make a scene that looks half as a good as that by just putting in a prompt, then you could call what South Park did AI.

          One of the only good uses of genAI, especially as Trump himself is deep in the pockets of AI corpos.
