1. The story may be true but the imagery is all AI

Ruins it for me

2. I am really tired of

People here bitching about AI here on DU -its here and unless DU absolutely bans it is here to stay and nothing can be done about it.

3. AI can be used in benificial and creative ways

But the way it's used here, just defeats the purpose of the video. It's laughable. It becomes a joke, and drags whatever truth there is in the story down to the same level
Others may deny the story is even true, because everything else is fake

4. I am so glad that DU has so many

Computer experts that can spy AI right away and I am sorry I am not an expert who can just spot it with a side glance and know not post such items , maybe DU’s experts should teach the rest of us how to spot it rather then bitch about AI being on the website and than there will be less videos with questionable content. I am tired of being blamed for posting such content and rung over the hot coals for posting it - I am sure most people on this website think I should just shut the fuck up and stay in my lane and post what I know which is ASIAN CULTURE.

5. Neither German nor Japanese POWs could fathom the wealth and largess of American.

A German officer was quoted as saying that he knew the war was all over but the shouting shortly before they even landed, and the certainty of that only increased during his time in the US. Their captors were feeding them FAR better than their own military had been, and everything but everything was limitless, and the American civilian population wasn't suffering like either the German or Japanese were.

They were both aghast at how the material life of civilians was actually IMPROVING while America was in a wartime economy, and the production of wartime materiel was beyond phenomenal. For example, the aviation industry was turning out something like one bomber every hour, and there were a million and a half individual components needed to make one. By 1943, the output was 700 per day.

In Japan, ramen was invented to fill growling stomachs, and was contained 40 cellulose, just to make a consumer feel full. And yet, in the US, Coca Cola and ice cream were limitless.
