To anyone who may have arrived late: the context explaining why this post uses AI 'art' was not originally included and was only added AFTER everyone already complained about the use of AI

You guys have been known for your variety of animation styles, so it's kind of disappointing to see AI slop being used here.

For everyone complaining about Ted using AI, the Purring test is a pun on the Turing test, which is a common AI standard. This is a joke about AI drawing famous people as cats, and doesn’t make sense if the image isn’t AI generated. The prompt is asking you to look at your own assumptions and see what the AI is thinking. Nobody’s telling you that this is a masterpiece or that you should use AI art- they’re trying to make you think critically! (Which I believe is a pretty good goal for an educational channel to have)

This is to inform MBA III semester students that project work will be there for two credits in the externals. The project work usually consists of selecting a topic/problem/ theme in a specialization of management (Finance/Marketing/HR/Systems). Students are informed to submit the project title & company name by 11/11/2024 without fail.

I guess reading the accompanying text explains why you are using AI. Well, good news? Judging by the comments, most people can identify AI at a glance!

My initial reaction to the post is like most people commenting here, which was surprise and disappointment at TED-ED to be using "A.I." (though it's just really just machine learning for public use consumption) for the image. However, the post is bringing attention and giving a lesson to the skill of detecting when an image is generated using these "A.I." services, which while many people already have, is a skill that is very important for Everyone to have, so that we are not victims to misinformation and disinformation. Please read the post completely before commenting, (not saying everyone commenting didn't, there are good reasons why using machine learning generated content is bad,) and let's try to have more trust and faith in the work TED-ED does.

I want a 1821 Hellenic Revolution video which is amazing since sometimes you cover unknown or niche historical events that are impressive

I have a suggestion, Can Ted-Ed use this platform to support local artists by asking them or letting them submit art to the channel. I want to see cats too and local artist CAN deliver. Thoughts?

This is a perfectly acceptable use of AI art since it’s low stakes fun, now for an actual guess I think it’s Thomas Edison

TED-Ed
Can you guess who this is... as a cat? Meet the newest addition to your morning routine: The Purring Test, the first game by TED. Designed as a playful way to help players gain insight into how AI and Large Language Models "think", The Purring Test asks, "Can you get inside the mind of an AI cat?" Play it today and learn more about TED Games here: ted.com/games?utm_medium=social&utm_source=tededYT…
Ok, this is TED-Ed, so you might be asking, "Is the Purring Test educational?"
Well, as AI-generated images and text proliferate across social media– often without identification, sometimes with the express purpose of misleading people– the ability to recognize them for what they are is becoming a critical media literacy skill. The bar is shifting so rapidly that it’s tough to keep up with (it feels like centuries ago when counting fingers was a viable strategy). The Purring Test is a fun way to track this change, and we’re exploring additional clue types, like video and audio, as ways of extending this recognition to other media.
We also see educational value in learning about the strengths, weaknesses, and limitations of generative AI. For that reason, wherever possible we take a “warts and all” approach to level creation, where we allow for absurdities and inaccuracies in clues up to the point where they’d be frustratingly misleading.
And finally, we hope that everyone who plays The Purring Test finds themselves eventually wondering “how does this actually work?” and that they avail themselves of the educational resources TED (and others) have created about the AI revolution we’re living through. To that end, a few resources:
A playlist of TED Talks about AI: www.ted.com/games/the-purring-test
The TED AI show: www.ted.com/games/the-purring-test , a podcast in which technologist Bilawal Sidhu talks with the world’s leading experts, artists, journalists, and more to explore the thrilling, sometimes terrifying, future ahead.
