00:00Are Germany's Robotic Mailboxes real, or another piece of AI slop?
00:08A recent Facebook post claimed that cities in Germany have installed Robotic Mailboxes designed to collect lost items.
00:15According to the caption, the mailbox scans the contents,
00:18using internal cameras and AI-trained object recognition systems,
00:22sending the lost item straight back to its owner.
00:25But the post is entirely fake, and the image is AI-generated.
00:28If you look more closely, there are signs that the image is unreal.
00:31For example, the woman's hand appears to go straight through the mailbox,
00:35and the shop sign in the background is unreadable, made up of letters that don't exist.
00:40The story was shared by Fact27, a Facebook page with 222,000 followers reportedly based in India.
00:48Most of the content on this page consists of unverified AI-generated material.
00:52This type of account is far from unusual.
00:54Even when it's fairly obvious that the images have been altered, comments show that some users still believe it.
01:01It's a phenomenon that's part of what's known as AI slop.
01:04Low quality, low effort, and often fantastical content made by AI.
01:09Last year, Conor Hayes, Meta's vice president for generative AI products,
01:13told the Financial Times that the company expects AI systems to eventually exist on its platforms,
01:19in much the same way as user accounts.
01:22Meta has announced it has put regulations in place to ensure that AI-generated content is clearly identified.
01:28Meta's platforms require AI labels on certain unpaid content, such as realistic audio and video.
01:35However, this doesn't apply to images, which are only labeled if Meta's systems detect AI,
01:40or if the user adds the label.
