Did they though?
Twitter outrage of the day is this altered picture of Daniel Pretti. He’s been tweaked to make him ever so slightly more attractive and the altered picture has been used in several places, including MSNBC.
The buzz is, imagine dying for your cause and your comrades don’t think you’re attractive enough to be a martyr.
But there’s a twist. I can’t find the post, but somebody asked Grok whether the photo had been altered. Yes, Grok answered, it had – but it looked like the altered photo had been released by the White House.
Now, that there is some 4D chess.
I tried asking Grok myself, but it’s being a little bitch tonight.
