20 years ago it was not done to drive a car as a monk or shopping in 7 eleven and pay the bill in person. Slowly they anticipate in the real world🧐

I don’t know there’s so many fake things in Thailand, including monks TIT

They do far worse to themselves every day, constantly seeing various monks around the country engaged in sexual relationships, taking drugs. Clean up your own house and people might be more inclined to take the religion more serious 

Bought myself a 5G phone yesterday, B6,999.

On the other display counter a monk was enquiring, and eventually bought a phone.

Snuck a look at the price after he had left; B37,000+.

Buddhism or Bahtism?

Maybe be has many Farcebook accounts?🙃🙃

Well Aseannow has free stock photos to accompany your comments, is that any less troubling?

..I'd go see that band though.  Metal Monks, the Monk'ey's

 

 

Transcend the Flesh      wait, that's also the band's name.

 

Is there really a NOB. 

Probably a Midjourney image.

 

People better get used to this as there's a very good chance in the near future that most images will not have origins based in reality.

Here we come, walkin'
Down the street
We get the funniest looks from
Ev'ry one we meet
Hey, hey, we're the Monkees
And people say we monkey around
But we're too busy singing
To put anybody down

Nice! But should've used "Monkies"!

The content, generated by artificial intelligence (AI), depicts Buddhist monks engaging in non-religious activities, such as playing musical instruments and racing on motorbikes.

These images seem a lot less damaging than the real stuff some monks have gotten up to previously.

Hypocrites.

The "journalist" to whom this article is accredited, Puntid Tantivangphaisal, seems to be unaware of the concept of "innocent until  proven guilty".   Is this a direct attack on AI, which it is conceivable though unjustified if no alternative is offered, or a desperate attempt by the state's religion to defend its role in indoctrinating its views on how Thailand should develop.   But then, over the millenniums, all states have used religion to maintain control.

Draft Dodger?  Maybe his Visa was running out and he figures a Thai Jail is better that being sent to the Ukraine front.

Yet another religion claiming special treatment. When will they learn?

Yes some Monkey Bussiness 

Funny how Thailand acts like it owns Buddhism. 

I'm so offended. 

 

These aren't the chat bots we are looking for.

You can go about your business,

Thanks teacher..  but these are how the original lyrics were written.

Had the images depicted reality, OH BOY! THAT would be something!

I can't believe it's not Buddha !

This is actually a serious problem, begun years ago with Photoshop. Nothing we see now is necessarily real, and I see no positives in that at all. None. Just because we can do something doesn't mean we have to.

It started many years before Photoshop. Pictures of the Loch Ness monster from the 1920s and way back to the Cottingly fairies of 1917. While Photoshop may have made it easier, it only refined what had been going on for many many decades.

That's true. But back then such things were seen by comparatively few and were always done for fun. Now such posts can reach tens or hundreds of millions and can be used with malicious intent. Just another way in which society has gone backwards.

You missed the point. Never mind.

I guess they wanna nip it in the bud before pictures of monks shooting heroin or robbing a gold shop come out.

Or donning a wig for a night with the bar girls. 

Such posts usually come from abroad so good luck to get a slightest piece of any info.
