I didn't think I'd have to point this out, but this is not Alice Huang, the alleged Chinese spy and Jensen Huang's, er, love interest (yes they share the same name).

This is a Korean singer called Elliye, the pic is from a 2017 instagram post and is known for the "last thing you see before leaking state secrets" meme.

    People don’t seem to care about the actual source, they just want to see themselves as expert AI detectors for some reason.

    …Doing that is physically impossible, hence the high false positive rate.


    And similarly, others who assume that’s the woman in the headline… err, aren’t too concerned about information hygiene anyway.

    I can see the argument for why the image in the OP was suspected, and normally I just glaze over such comments because idgaf but I remembered this meme from a little while back and I knew I could find it fairly quickly

    The internet loves being mad (and I'm not perfect either tbh)

    Oh gosh, now I feel bad for joking about it. I guess it was stupid of me to assume this was actually the person from the headlines.

    Sometimes I forget how deplorable some internet users can be, and it just doesn't cross my mind that somebody would use a different person's photo to make a meme about this.

    I hope it doesn't impact the life of the person in the photo too much. But since it appears google AI is already labeling her as the spy, then it likely will affect her in unfortunate ways. That's sad.

    I wouldn't worry too much about the person for reasons I will explain below but I would def take it as a lesson to check your assumptions.

    The meme predates that affair and was pretty generic, more like 'China/DPRK bad'.

    There is suspicion that Alice Huang is working on behalf of china, but she's also a CEO of a tech company so she's not some random 20 something. She's also a public figure (insofar as a tech CEO is), and you can see photos of her if you google her name.

    As for the person in this photo, the photo is almost 10 years old and the image search is giving the wrong name. Taking a stranger's photo to make a meme is wack and in this case probably racist, but I don't think people are going to assume she's the individual in the news.

    I see. So whoever it is likely already knew she had been made into a meme and won't wake up tomorrow to a devastating surprise. That still doesn't make it right though.

    And you're correct, it is extremely racist to use an instagram photo of a unassociated Korean woman as a meme format about Chinese spies. And it's misogynistic too. She didn't ask to be defamed and drooled over.

    If humans had any decency then we wouldn't use random people's photos in unrelated memes. Public figures are one thing, or pictures from news articles or photo shoots. Personal photos from social media is crazy though.

    Then again, it wasn't that long ago that putting any photos of oneself on the internet was seen as crazy, and then for some reason social media came around and started normalizing it. Zucking fuckerberg.

    Anyway, as for the alleged spy from the recent headlines, I personally don't care and if this was solely about her then I'd say it doesn't matter. But it's not, it's about the person whose photo it is and the real impact and harm that something like this can have on a person's life undeservedly.

    As for Jensen Huang, I really don't give a damn about him and I'd say we can dogpile on him as much as we want, for thinking with his dick (which surely no lemming would ever do!). And, you know, committing infidelity.

    I just think if people are going to meme it, they should use the real people's photos, or draw them or something. wait scratch that don't draw them

    [Deleting "Would" meme not for national security reasons, because obviously that was the joke. But because it's been pointed out that the woman in the photo is not the woman from the headlines. And that's fucking awful, and we should all feel ashamed for dog-piling on her.]

    I guess it's more believable if it's age appropriate. If a 20 yo bombshell wandered up in a bar and said "yeah zaddy fill me w your nvidia" even he might get suspicious

    People keep calling her that spy or that model and somehow neglect to mention she's a tech CEO (for a company that appears to be in the business of routing banned technology to China but that doesn't come up on the first date)

    So you've got an age appropriate lady getting up in some nerdy engineer's grill, conventionally attractive but not like "10/10, must only be the money" type, and also she's apparently accomplished within his specific interests.

    Honestly if he wasn't married I wouldn't blame him. If anything I'd be impressed that he's by all appearances one of the least shallow CEOs out there.

    I can see how someone that has decided that because they don't like the guy everything he does must be interpreted as negatively as possible might think that.

    Also, no I don't, because I don't sound like a Claude prompt.

    I too would betray NVIDIA for her.

    Or for the price of a nice dinner.

    Actually waking up on the wrong side of the bed would be enough to make me willing to betray NVIDIA.

    This is the best photo I've seen of her. She's alright looking, generally. The best part of this though is that apparently his wife is deeply involved with all his business stuff, so the divorce fallout is gonna be wild.
