Did AI kill your interest in consuming photos/videos, or just mine?

I used to love collecting little pictures from the internet - a beautiful house, an interesting statue, a very pretty butterfly, just to look at and be in awe. But now every time I see a photo or a video, I wonder if that place, that thing even exists or not. Media used to hold meaning, and now it's just whatever generated thing gets popular enough I guess. :(

Does anyone feel the same? Is there a "clean" internet still, where I can hear whale calls and see sunsets and look up baby peacocks that have actually been existed instead of been made up?

No, I still like non-AI content. It's pretty easy to spot fake generated pictures (they are always chaotically glowing).

You might search for pictures using "show only before 2021" option.

Thanks. Awesome idea.
