AI slop picture.

It's supposed to be Portrait of an Old Man with an Onion by Jusepe de Ribera.

Mmm, onions!

It was the style at the time.

Yes, except the machine melted his fingers in the process of making cinnamon rolls.

Oh my GOD!!!! Somebody used shitty AI to help them make a shitty 5-second meme?! OH THE HUMANITY!!! Back in my day, memes were handcrafted over decades of excruciating back-breaking labour!

You seems more irritated than OP.

He’s right though. Onions are nearly as important as salt for flavor

Salad has tree in it?

If it takes you decades to lasso select a cinnamon roll from one image and paste it on another image in MS Paint, then I'm just impressed you strung this many words together.

The point is, who the fuck cares? You're being judgemental over a fucking meme. I'm in agreement that AI slop has no place in advertisement or purchased items, but for fucks sake, it's an internet meme. Pull the stick out of your ass.

Yeah, I find moral posturing pretentious and annoying.

Object select in most modern image editors uses AI now.

Apples come from trees, you can put Apple in a salad

Tell us you want this planet to burn without telling us you want this planet to burn

Nuts, too.

Moral posturing and pretense is just par for the course on the fediverse. Pretty sure the comment sections here exist solely to show how morally upstanding you are.

I don't want this planet to burn, I actually bicycle to work, eat very little meat, and tend to only buy local produce, but good job on identifying your preferred "Out Group." Unless you have another classifier you want to use against me.

Charge the people responsible for harms, ABSOLUTELY. but holy fuck, you don't even understand the thing you're complaining about.

Do you even know what you dislike? Or is it just vibes and tribal identity?

They'd be really upset, if they knew what AI was.

It would be really upsetting if someone was so stupid that they thought using a local algorithm in your offline software was the same thing as an AI image generator.

What about an AI generator on a local machine? What about AI generative fill in / erase? What about AI image extension? AI lighting improvement, artifact removal, etc etc?

If we go with that, then apple pie is also a salad?

Fuck off with you slop. Lemmy should be AI free

In my house it's breakfast and i don't do salad for breakfast, but i'm totally fine with you calling it a salad :)

Lol you literally just described AI and a locally hosted Gen AI in a single sentence while claiming there's no overlap. How are you this ignorant? You have no idea what you're mad about, but you're AGGRESSIVELY confident that you do. Gen AI is algorithms. Many are offline and locally hosted.

You basically said "Wow, you really think rocky road is the same thing as double fudge? They're totally different colours, you must be stupid."

Just in case you don't get the analogy, those are both flavours of ice cream.

I just have to say their blatant declaration of having absolutely no idea what AI is, as an inflammatory response to me pointing out that they have absolutely no idea what AI is, was quite satisfying.

But remember, we're the stupid ones for taking the time to understand what the technology even is.

Sir this is the internet - you’re not allowed to be right

I'm very confused about how I originally mentioned MS Paint cut and paste as an alternative to using AI to make memes and then you two just decided to jerk each other off about knowing that Photoshop AI tools exist. I'm happy you found each other.

probably by the same mechanism that you took my obviously sarcastic hyperbole and responded as though it took a genuine decade to perform. Or because the entire point was "stop complaining about this, it's petty." I still remember when people bitched and cried when meme-building websites started to get popular. This has the same pathetic gatekeeping vibe.

I'm sorry, but if the super fortified unpassable "gate" is "I need to learn how to copy and paste in a basic image manipulation tool" and that is somehow too high a bar, you deserve all the ridicule coming your way for whipping up some slop.

Lol wow you're VERY good at ignoring the concept of words, eh? Kinda makes your "ridicule" difficult to take seriously. Keep crying about things that matter less than a fart in the wind 👍
