The Pope’s popularity was surprising

The Pope’s Balenciaga meme is based on a Chicago construction man Pablo Xavier31. American BuzzFeed reached out to Xavier to comment on the meme.

– I’m trying to think of something fun to do and then the idea of ​​the Pope in a plush Moncler jacket by Balenciaga dawned on me, Xavier stated.

Xavier’s brother had passed away earlier. According to him, the pictures made with artificial intelligence are one of his ways of dealing with grief.

After taking the first pictures of the Pope, he decided to share them in the AI ​​Art Universe group on Facebook, after which he shared the pictures on Reddit. The popularity of the pictures surprised Xavier.

– I just thought it was funny to see the Pope in a funny jacket. I didn’t think it would become so popular.

A few hours after Xavier had shared the photos on the Reddit forum, he was banned from the service. He thinks that using well-known people for content created with artificial intelligence would cross a line.

Believable content with artificial intelligence

In addition to memes, artificial intelligence has been used to produce other seemingly genuine content. Supplier Eliot Higgins got Midjourney curfew to the service after sharing pictures of Trump’s arrest made with that artificial intelligence.

In addition, the winner of Sony’s photography competition was also revealed to be made by artificial intelligence.

Several experts and authorities are also concerned about content produced with artificial intelligence. The images are also becoming increasingly difficult to identify and verifying their authenticity is becoming more and more difficult.
