When a certain saint allegedly shot a CEO dead on the street, there was a big surge in support. Sadly, no one else has followed suit.
A lot of people are sick of the ownership class ruining everything, and would cheer for spilled blood.
If someone shot the ceo of uber dead, people would celebrate. They're all scum.
Well, someone did just follow suit.

Ridiculous, but it’s also like fast food commercials. If you think the meal you’re getting from Burger King will look anything like the commercial you saw, you might just also believe these AI Uber Eats menu photos.
I mean, you wouldn't actually want to eat what you saw in the ad. Meat painted with wood varnish to make it shiny, cardboard spacers between layers of a burger to make it stand up more, white paint in the thick shakes, etc.

Fees should be based on revenue and scale up on repeat offenses. Otherwise it's just "the cost of doing business"
Also, that's $5000 in 1994 money (if not older).
Surely fines should scale with inflation.

Japan has strict laws against using fake images for food.
Why can't the people we vote for represent us?
Why can’t the people we vote for represent us?
Politicians were never meant to represent us (the people). We the people was war propaganda to revolt against the English and their king. They have, since the founding of the US, represented the business owners (landowners). And even after giving women and black people the right to vote, the system still mostly represents the interest of the business owners.
Bug report closed: System works as intended.
For the politicians to actually represent us, we the people would need to have some sort of broad agreement on what we do and do not want. But unfortunately, the people don't have the needed experience or education to come to that agreement. So instead we get 2 different flavors of politicians serving the owners and none serving the people. Pick your favorite team, but they do not currently represent the people's interest, instead they represent the business owners' interests.
As a people, our job is to attempt to bend the politicians and business owners' to our will using what we currently have at our disposal: our actions and our words. But that still won't get anywhere without many other people backing up our actions and our words with their actions and words. It won't be easy, but it is necessary if we want to shape our societies future. If we don't do it, we get shadowy groups like the heritage foundation doing it for the business owners and pushing it on our leaders.
Also the politicians' job is largely dependent upon them listening to the demands of the businesses lobbyist as of now. If they don't follow their wishes they can expect a harder battle to keep their seat. They would get less big campaign donations and stronger primary challengers as a result of their noncompliance. This makes our job harder since it is difficult to get them to understand something when their job and salary depends upon them not understanding it.

Great... more AI crammed into stuff just because.

True but revenue/income hurts a lot more. Corps only listen to the bottom line.
Both Nvidia and Intel and knowingly broken the law and just paid the fine while profits covered the loss.
The system is broken.

So they are selling you fake food in pictures with fake descriptions...
And I bet the people will keep using their services anyway. Don't forget to tip on the total bill!

the details which it doesn’t seem like most people are reading:
The AI tools can be used to generate descriptions for menu items and summarize customer reviews to quickly highlight feedback regarding areas of the business that need improvement. Uber Eats also says it’s using AI to “detect and enhance low-quality food images” on menus, either by making changes to lighting, resolution, and framing, or editing the food onto different plates or backgrounds. The example images provided by Uber Eats suggest that this feature may also use generative AI to make adjustments to the food itself, such as expanding it or filling in any gaps when digitally re-plating.
For menu items that don’t have any images at all, Uber Eats will also now allow customers to upload a photograph of their own order when leaving a review.
AI customer review summaries are pretty common and the AI pictures are mostly focused on improving low-quality pics provided by restaurants. they aren’t generating pics from nothing, in that case user submitted pics are allowed.
...you just have to trust that those reviews won't get "adjusted" in the process...
