A BBC journalist ran the image through an AI chatbot which identified key spots that may have been manipulated. What the actual fuck? You couldn’t spare someone to just go look at the fucking thing rather than asking ChatGPT to spin you a tale? What are we even doing here, BBC?

They asked AI to narrow down possible locations, you know, rather than going through what 50 miles either on Google maps or physically. Then they went out to that location to see. This is perfect use of AI, to speed up filtering and then human work. Calm your tits.

This is true, but also there’s no way this wouldn’t have been reported rather quick, like not just online but within 5min someone would have been all: “Oi 999? The bridge on Crumpet Lane 'as fallen down, I can’t get to me Chippy!” Or “Oi wot was that loud bang outside me flat?! Made me spill me vindaloo! Holy Smeg the bridge collapsed!” Or like isn’t the UK the most surveiled country with their camera system? Is this bridge not on camera already? For that the AI telling location would probably be handy too I’d just be surprised they don’t have it on security cams.

Or like isn’t the UK the most surveiled country with their camera system? Ahahah! That’s a good one! You think all those cameras are accessible to everyone or even the municipal authorities? Think again! All those cameras are mostly useless—even for law enforcement (the only ones with access). It’s not like anyone is watching them in real time and the recordings—if they even have any—are like any IT request: Open a ticket and wait. How long? I have no idea. Try it: If you live in the UK, find some camera in a public location and call the police to ask them, “is there an accident at (location camera is directly pointing at)?” They will ask you all sorts of questions before answering you (just tell them you heard it through the grapevine or something) but ultimately, they will send someone out to investigate because accessing the camera is too much of a pain in the ass. It’s the same situation here in the US. I know because the UK uses the same damned cameras and recording tech. It sucks! They’re always looking for ways to make it easier to use and every rollout of new software actually makes it harder and more complicated! How easy is the ticket system at your work? Now throw in dozens of extra government-mandated fields 🤣 Never forget: The UK invented bureaucracy and needles paperwork!
