Are we really turning to AI to create a few 3D shapes and a rock wall with a hole in it?
I get the joke - it’s funny even. But seriously I would rather see a crude stick drawing from someone with no artistic talent than this soulless slop.
Someone made a better version back in 2021 as well.
This is a million times better than that Ai slop
It's so fucking common these days. I keep seeing it on things I want to like, but I refuse to encourage the behavior.
Then why are you on Lemmy's leading AI friendly instance created by the guy who makes the AIhorde? Seems kind of like a conflict of interest...
I don't filter by instance. I get everything. Also, it doesn't change my point.
I mean you kind of should care since the tagline of the instance is "Be Weird, Download a Car, Generate Art, Screw Copyrights" it's kind of hypocritical to stay on an instance if you don't believe in or are aggressively against its principles. Like it wouldn't make sense for someone to be a member of the piracy instance if they believe that piracy is wrong and intellectual property should be respected, similar thing goes for the AI instance. That might sound like a wrong comparison but the vast majority of anti-AI arguments I hear people barf up are along the lines of "we need to respect copyright" and "stealing intellectual property is wrong" "won't someone think of the ~~children~~ artists".

how did you recognise it? I only managed to after zooming in to see the wobble in the text
Personally? Vibes. Specifically, it feels very... uniform. Like, a human artist good enough to draw like that would be better at composition, I think?
More practically, even the newer ones struggle with specific shapes; look at the arch, no human would draw that weird hybrid of an arch and a... semi-donut?
Older models struggle with lining stuff up and keeping things straight over long distances. The latest ones struggle with constant curvatures.
Yeah it's funny how something on a "vibes" level just made me feel like me something was off and made me look into it closer. I worry that one day I won't have that weird feeling anymore.
The obvious one to me was the two pyramid triangle things.
The block box thing only comes with one.
Sizes are off, especially the circle wouldn't fit.

I don't know how to make this. I would have asked AI.
Something being made by ai doesn't automatically make it bad.
Im not sure how you know it's ai
I don’t know how to make this. I would have asked AI. Something being made by ai doesn’t automatically make it bad.
That's my point. It doesn't have to look like this. It could look way shittier and make the same joke - the joke would land the same way. So why add a middleman? I'd rather see the shitty drawing by a human brain.
I don't think AI is bad - I think using AI to create art is bad. AI used in technical applications makes sense, cracking our genome, predicting weather events, creating new medicines. I want the experiences that make us uniquely human to remain made by humans.
Im not sure how you know it’s ai
This generic style has been popping up a lot recently. Also observe the odd varying width in the letters, that's a common indication. It also lacks much sense on a logical level, something a human can typically discern when creating art. Why are there four speech bubble indicators but six objects? Why two pyramids? None of these things further improve or modify the joke - so why were they included? Not saying a human couldn't make these artistic choices, but they add up and set off my AI alarm bells.

Agreed, but it's all downhill from here. When AI generated content is completely indistinguishable from human, things will
I'm not an anti-AI absolutist, but for environmental reasons we should significantly cut down on the use of AI, especially for unnecessary things such as memes.
My GPU generates stuff in seconds that would take hours to make, once the model is trained it's pretty much no energy to use it.
Okay fair enough.
Ehhh I don't like AI but high quality shitposts are like the best use of AI imo. I guess it depends on the effort
Like for example this unironically goes hard: https://youtu.be/B05KyAyAa4k
I mean it's nice to have high quality shit posts but AI is still the electronic equivalent of coal rolling.
It's already been discussed on environmental impact in another comment, but even beyond that, AI does not mean slop. Sure, the majority is low quality slop, but legitimate use of AI is possible. It's a tool at the end of the day, and imo fully usable within reason. People just really like shitting on AI because they think all of it is slop.
Take for example the parody music video I sent. For a normal person, getting the budget to create that with real voice actors would probably be around the thousands/tens of thousands. The other alternatives would be voice stitching, which ends up being a distinct style (think tf2 voice chops) or hiring cheap voice actors who will 99% not be able to replicate a character's voice like that. In short, a creation simply only possible by AI.
Another one would be the scooby doo ai voice incident. The creator was a normal student, and instead of using text2speech or subtitles, used AI to at least make his animation sound similar to the characters. He still put in effort, it was a good animation, but he was bullied by the original voice actor for the horrible practice of .... being too broke to afford an actual voice actor.
AI does not have to be so black and white. I get the sentiment around hating AI, hell I vehemently hate corporations trying to stuff ai in everything, but not all usage must be considered bad.
high quality
Shit post
I believe that is an oxymoron.
How? I don't get it. I'm not gonna go learn how to draw well just so I can shitpost. I'm not taking an artists job by using GenAI to make a picture of a Cat driving a moped. Using GenAI is not power intensive only training GenAI is and people using or not using it for trash memes isnt going to change if they chose to train another AI model.
I’m not gonna go learn how to draw well just so I can shitpost.
Who said you need to draw well to shitpost??
^ still better than AI
FUCK YEAH BROTHER AROOOOO

I mean I agree with you if we're talking about openAI, but not so much if we're talking about lower end models meant to be self-hosted. In that case it's not really much different from putting people down for gaming or other GPU heavy operations, and at that point we're just fully leaning into the carbon footprint propaganda.
I hope you aren't going to argue how other people should be allowed to use their own GPUs, that would be very ironic considering your name, @[email protected]
Totally disagree in free unnecessary short loves things is the most justified if anything. Would you be more hour editing a meme that may or may have not any traction that what it will probably live on the internet? Doesn't make much sense.
doesn't make much sense
Neither does this comment. Did you have it generated by AI?

Bro, try editing this comment into something coherent.
How and why are you spending more than an hour editing a meme?
I mean if people use a self-hosted model on their own GPU that's really their prerogative how they choose to use their GPU and the energy it uses.
I just got the hardcopy of this novel about a week ago and it's amazing.
I’m oblivious. What novel is this?
Other commenter got the title. The artist is Junji Ito, and he has a lot of works as equally creepy as this one. Uzumaki might be the most popular one

The Enigma of Amigara Fault
This is far side for millennials and i like it lol
Edit: Oh god it's AI trash. Sad
Report it and hopefully they'll take it down.
Not so "soulless" if you initially found it funny... 😼
It steals the art of real artists to generate its images.
So yeah it steals and projects their soul too.
It's gross and its creator should have to pay every artist it stole content from to train their bot.

That's not the only meme it's referencing, OP.
