Apple reveals new AI architecture built around Google Gemini models

Why is Apple providing people with a photorealistic deepfake generator so they can participate in dressing down women, digital blackface, and god knows what else? This is crossing a line, and simply saying "well other big tech companies crossed it first!" is not an excuse.

Nah, they crossed the line when they allowed photo editing apps on the AppStore which can do all the things you listed and more. It’s disgusting.

That is a completely ridiculous and absurd reply, and you know it.

How so? Can you not create all sorts of unethical imagery with the photo editing apps on the App Store? And do they not make the production of unethical imagery much easier and accessible? Which part of my comment is ridiculous and absurd?

Be kind. Don't be snarky. Converse curiously; don't cross-examine. Edit out swipes.

When disagreeing, please reply to the argument instead of calling names. "That is idiotic; 1 + 1 is 2, not 3" can be shortened to "1 + 1 is 2, not 3."

Please don't fulminate. Please don't sneer, including at the rest of the community.

Cool, can you reply to the person's original reply to me in which they made fun of the point I was making—how "disgusting" it is that Apple…allows photo editors in the App Store?

After all, don't be snarky!

Please don’t act like a jerk. (And yes, deflecting from your own poor conduct counts as acting like a jerk on HN.)

It’s not clear that they were making fun of your point, and the guidelines ask us to assume good faith. If you’re serious about expecting others to observe the guidelines, that’s great. Start by observing the guidelines, to demonstrate that you hold yourself to a high standard. Then if others break the guidelines in their responses to you, you’ll be on solid ground in holding them to account, whilst doing so in a way that also keeps to the – avoiding personal abuse and escalation.
