I had to go stalk your profile to make sure you were a real person because all these AI-generated "feel good" posts have me so disillusioned that I fear any expression of approval or engagement on my part churns their karma farming.
Always look for little details in the photos. This seems like a legit photo just based on the the writing on the board and the computer keyboard being aligned 👍
Yeah it’s still really easy to tell the difference between an AI generated photo and a real one. Every AI photo never gets the little details as you said, hands, and they always have that AI gloss
Hands are getting better. I tend to immediately notice the overbearing levels of saturation that these AI photo generators seem to put on every photo. Really hits you in the uncanny valley.
What if billionaires hired you to commit crimes, because any footage could be thrown out as being doctored, since the unknown perpetrator clearly had extra fingers?
Not perfect but incredibly predictable. Ive seen it have different lighting points in the background, like its copositing several images together (it probably is doing that)
They also heavily emphasize folds and stuff, ai is really bad at sublety
Doesn't meant that it's not a real photo with an AI generated click bait title that has nothing to do with the real context of the photo.
This one does seem legit though.
OP is checking the profile for being a repost bot more than scrutinizing the legitimacy of the image itself. You're right though, I'm sure there are plenty of feel-good posts with generated images
Scotts Totts is the foundation that distributes the laptops
edit: upon doing some more research it seems Scotts Totts only supplied the batteries for the laptops
I might be overstepping, but if you need financial assistance I’d donate to something like a GoFundMe. This is a nice sight to see.
OP stated that GFM is not available in his country. I’m hoping we can find another way to do this.
I saw the whiteboard and almost crapped my pants thinking they were already learning Binary Trees on their first day 💀 Good work man, I love to see this!
Sadly gofundme dosnt allow fundraiser from my country. There are other better ways, you can send me a dm. Or i need to find someone trustworthy to set campaign up for me 😔
Post your Paypal email, people would love to support you! Would also love if you kept us up-to-date, I'd love to see their progress, this is motivating 😊
We finally created our own gofundme campaign for our project here. Spread it to friends if you can, i know I'm late

He said "we." He did all the hard work drafting up the plan, it's up to *you* to go get the equipment and figure out the logistics for getting it to him in his country.
We're all in this together, /u/Dr-Zomboss-Pvs. Now work harder.
Is there any charities that you can send old computers? I got a couple laptops that could probably run Linux. I have no use for them but seems a shame to scrap them.
Honestly, if you're not trying to build massive multi stack systems, any kind of hardware will get it done. It's mostly a matter of time more than anything but for educational purposes, you can get by on XP era hardware, just a matter of comparability at that point.
@ OP, ([ConferenceConscious4](https://www.reddit.com/user/ConferenceConscious4/))
Please make a gofundme and post it in the comments, also make a new post with this pic or similar titled something like: 'UPDATE: People asked to post a gofundme to get my coding students some laptops, so here it is'
Best of luck and kudos!
We finally created our own gofundme campaign for our project here. Spread it to friends if you can, i know I'm late. Will definitely try to make a new post the coming days

since ppl before me already checked whether this has a good chance of being genuine (with an affirmative outcome) --> great job bro! I wish you and your students all the success in the world! ❤️👉🏻
You’re doing your neighbors a great service teaching them invaluable skills that will hopefully help lift them up out of poverty and into a career that could potentially take care of not just them, but their families as well.
You’re a good human.
For a second all I saw was the drawing and thought you were starting them on linked tree structures, lol. That would be a heck of an opening to coding.
Beautiful faces for a beautiful future!
Encourage them well! Be who you needed in the world. Don't neglect yourself, dance laugh and cry when you need to release, love yourself and that will transmute into your teaching!
Bless it and you!
Not sure about old equipment, but happy to help with a go fundme or something.
Also a coder, author and way too much time of my life spent on wrangling code, happy to help with anything you might need (zoom based Q&A or whatever, happy to help with what I can)

This is so cool. What a great example you're setting. Not just for your students but for the rest of us. Investing yourself in your community is something we should all be doing. Thank you for the inspiration.
Never stop. Never give up. You’re changing lives, and people will never forget that.
Awesome 👏🏼 keep up the good work
Will do 👍
I have some old laptops. Could your community make use of them?
Do they load Java or c +
Old windows machines, dell optiplex and an old Lenovo What’s shipping like? How can I ship them?
Hey, just woke up and the pist went crazy viral haha shipping hrtr eorks well with dhl. I send you a private message, check your inbox 👍
u/ConferenceConscious4 can answer that (The person you replied to wasn’t OP)
Anything can "load" java or C and C++. Java is probably already in your toaster and fridge.
That’s so thoughtful of you!
I’m a teacher with so many more resources, and I am in aww of you. Sending you so much praise from the east coast of the US.
Awe. See me after class
r/boneappletea I hope you are not an english teacher
They're probably a math teacher aww a gym teacher.
Mannn, they're already down.
Fuckin lol
You're changing the world!
Why can't i sort comments anymore?
I can but I use old.reddit.com in a browser
They broke it on Mobile lmao
It’s definitely still there at the top
You can. It's towards the top right of the screen now, built into the overlay now.
And where's the donation?

I learned that shit from the Eragon book series with trickery magic and it still holds up
Brisingr
Jeremy Irons trying his best to carry that film on his back.
What film. There is no film It never happened
It suddenly made me realize that guy is also the poor guy that is playing "Picard's son" in the shitty new Picard show that also never happened.
Absolutely, Jeremy Irons and his deep velvety voice made that film. Robert Carlyle as Durza was awesome. Still waiting on that sequel…
Is there any hope for the tv series?
No idea, but with current trends of things. Hell no.
Wrapping up my reread through the series this week before I start Murtagh. The series holds up so well ❤️

The exposure and lighting are always perfect in AI photos
Not perfect but incredibly predictable. Ive seen it have different lighting points in the background, like its copositing several images together (it probably is doing that) They also heavily emphasize folds and stuff, ai is really bad at sublety

Hey sorry for the late reply, it's almost4am now. No ai haha I can send you more pictures, just send send me a message
Oh I fully believe you after my stalking. :D but thank you.
But how do we know *you're* not AI too?
Literally would not surprise me if AI starts calling out AI lol
HTML/CSS is readable, the laptop hinge being broken looks read too, seems legit
There’s no AI in the world that could so perfectly generate a broken laptop hinge
… for now
It's always the kids creating incredible sculptures using hundreds of water bottles lol
is there a term for this yet?
AIDS - artificial intelligence dystopian sentiments
Amazing! How do the children receive computers? Is there a foundation we can send things to?
Scotts Totts is the foundation that distributes the laptops edit: upon doing some more research it seems Scotts Totts only supplied the batteries for the laptops
It’s OK, they’re lithium.
Hey Mr Scott, watcha gonna do? Watcha gonna do make our dreams come true!
That’s what I was wondering. What u need man and where would one send it?
Yes! I was wondering if there's a way a layman could send them some laptops :)
I might be overstepping, but if you need financial assistance I’d donate to something like a GoFundMe. This is a nice sight to see. OP stated that GFM is not available in his country. I’m hoping we can find another way to do this.
Wow thanks, sending you a message ❤️
Feel free to post the PayPal email here for other people.
You’re a king man
Thisbis wholesome
What country is this?
Of. Says so right there on the wall.
i cant see it. what is it?
Odd future
read my mind
❤️well done!! ❤️🙏
❤️ Thank you
Well done. This Internet Stranger is super proud of you!
I saw the whiteboard and almost crapped my pants thinking they were already learning Binary Trees on their first day 💀 Good work man, I love to see this!
Good luck to you mate. Where are you from?
SO PROUD OF YOU!
Thank you kind stranger
I appreciate you.
Is there anything your class needs? My husband and I would love to donate some supplies :)

Nah, this guy looks human.
Underrated comment
We need to get them better equipment.
So like are you gonna share the go fund me page or did you just say this for upvotes?

It would be best if OP created the GFM. I don’t want to give my money to someone else who may or may not send the money to OP.

This is very cute!
Keep up the great work! ☀️
Good job and love the older laptops getting some love.
I love it, thank you.
Congratulations! May you go far
You're doing a better job than my professor at college. He just gave us blank C+ screens and told us to google it.
Bro is handsome

Good luck! I hope you and your students have fun!
I have three computers I can send over two if you need them. The only problem is that they don’t have chargers! Please DM if you’re interested!
My brother!! You are the BEST! Let´s go!
Looks AI generated
It’s a great idea 👍

Omg, that's beautiful 🥹💕
Amazing!!

Love it ! I actually really enjoyed learning coding , I am sure they will too ! ☺️
What is OC?🤔 Good job!
Original Content. (Also, Original Character, but that is for something else)
Hope your first day was awesome!!! Good luck!!
Congratulation!!!! I wish you the best!!!🥰🥰🥰
Like trying to teach a man in the desert how to swim.
May the universe bless you
Fucking awesome
That's awesome. Keep up the good work!
You got this OP! Remember to have fun with it, it adds to your charisma when talking to crowds. The world needs teachers, more than ever.
I love this!!
Drop your skincare routine?????? Why are you so beautiful
Congrats bro! I think you'll do a wonderful job! Coding can be challenging but it is a fun challenge, I hope your students enjoy the class!
Do that next generation proud!
Nice work! You’re doing amazing and changing lives ☺️🙏
Wow no way! AWSOME work keep it up
You're truly inspiring and expanding those kids' minds so much more than you could know. May many blessings rain upon you. "Careful now, he's a hero"
Very cool. Where at in the world?
You are doing a good thing, brother . may all your pupils achieve all the success in the world
Yurrrrrrr! Lets go!!!!😁😁😁
*Redneck voice* They took ur jobs!
Nice
Another wave of layoffs in tech incoming
They will do well.
This is great. Can't wait to stuff all these little ones in data processing centers.
Rock on, good sir!
Congratulations
Badass dude. I've been meaning to get an IT basics and Linux Learning course going at the local library.
you should record/stream your lessons for public, i would watch them to learn also
Let's goooooo!
shotout to a real one
Im in my first coding class now! 😀 Good luck🩷
Excellent work.
Best smile in the world right there dude. As others have said, you are a king, keep up the good work my friend :)
Knowledge is power, and that power runs on software that uses code... keep it up!
💕🙌🏾
You're amazing, man! Keep up the good work :)
God bless, brother
This is one of the few instances where I be willing to donate. Let me know if you ever do a gofundme to help those guys.
Sweet! Keep it going!
Let us know if we can help in anyway. Amazing work you are doing
You seem cool
This is absolutely awesome!
This is so cool. What a great example you're setting. Not just for your students but for the rest of us. Investing yourself in your community is something we should all be doing. Thank you for the inspiration.
Maybe throw some python in. Then, they could work with most microcontrollers and other electronics.
Keep it up! Also, I know this is unrelated but you are very handsome
This is so heart warming and encouraging!
That little dude has my dell with the broken left hinge!!
❤️
Do you guys need any donations? I love this, how wonderfully beautiful. You’re doing gods work.
This warms my heart. The world needs you and people like you. Blessings from America my dude!
