Original survey link: https://forms.gle/7Bu3Tyi5fufmY8Vc8

Thanks for all the answers, here are the results for the survey in case you were wondering how you did!

Edit: People working in CS or a related field have a 9.59 avg score while the people that aren’t have a 9.61 avg.

People that have used AI image generators before got a 9.70 avg, while people that haven’t have a 9.39 avg score.

Edit 2: The data has changed slightly! Over 1,000 people have submitted results since posting this image, check the dataset to see live results. Be aware that many people saw the image and comments before submitting, so they’ve gotten spoiled on some results, which may be leading to a higher average recently: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1MkuZG2MiGj-77PGkuCAM3Btb1_Lb4TFEx8tTZKiOoYI

    Anyone who says “a real X wouldn’t…” where X is any profession, is really clueless about anything that X do. Though it is particularly true for artists, I’ll admit

      I feel like most professionals in a discipline say ‘a real X would absolutely be so stupid as to…’ instead. They have seen every mistake the profession can offer.

      Yes, developers would absolutely delete production databases even after you told them to triple check. Yes, artists absolutely would start a world war over racism. Yerp, archers would absolutely try to off themselves with a bow. And oh dear would car drivers absolutely drive into oncoming traffic and honk because everyone seems to drive on the wrong side.

      People make mistakes and do stupid shit all the time. Maybe we should treat them like we treat AIs, just throw them away when they fucked up? 🙃
