What's more annoying? That people have the ability to generate content with AI, or that everyone on lemmy constantly complains about it?

You're banging your heads against walls over and over. Stop. Shut up.

AI-generated. Thanks for training my neural network (brain) to identify more AI-generated images (slop).

What tipped ya off the weird faces or the woman with her child clone?

[–] musubibreakfast@lemm.ee 1 points 3 minutes ago* (last edited 3 minutes ago)

First hint was the weird fist in the first panel. Why would you clench your hand in front of someone's arm if you're trying to restrain them? It almost looks like he's holding the guy by the hair.

All the comics from the new GPT have the same style, you don't even need to pixel peep. They just all have the same art style.

~~Extra finger as well.~~ Damn this one was good though, would've missed it if I hadn't checked the comments and taken a closer look.

Edit: I can't count apparently. If anything there are missing fingers.

[–] Sludgeyy@lemmy.world 1 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

Where is the extra finger? I swear I can't find it. A disappearing pinky

I feel like most artists would make the daughter similar to their mother. I don't see how that's weird.

The characters all have different and "accurate" reactions

Sherif is stern.

SS is annoyed.

ICE shows some compassion

Native American is noble

Jew is startled

"Illegal Aliens" are scared

There are a lot of details in everything.

If it wasn't for the comments I wouldn't think it is AI, but I do feel like people bandwagon on it. Top comment says AI, and everyone is going to say AI.

[–] Joelk111@lemmy.world 1 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago)

Aww shit, I just can't count fingers. Maybe I'm the real AI. Yeah I'm still not sure that this is AI. I hate that we have to have this discussion.

[–] rowdyrockets@lemm.ee 45 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

I think this community needs to have a conversation about whether we keep allowing AI comics.

It’s a no for me but I’m willing to vote.

[–] JcbAzPx@lemmy.world 8 points 18 hours ago (2 children)

There's a vote under every post. Feel free.

[–] rowdyrockets@lemm.ee 17 points 18 hours ago

Nice “gotcha”. But you know what I meant. We should discuss adding it as a sub rule - so we can report it for AI as they come.

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 12 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

When I've got 10,000 AI generated candidates on my ballot and its my job to pick out the half dozen real submissions, it feels like there's a structural problem with the election's process.

the funny thing is that that's the icon for adobe illustrator.

inkscape ftw

[–] grrgyle@slrpnk.net 7 points 15 hours ago

Lol I had no idea. Works both ways tbh

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 10 points 16 hours ago

This is why I custom order all my memes direct from people on Fiverr

[–] mlg@lemmy.world 12 points 15 hours ago

Saw this on a thread a while back:

The funny and sad thing is I think the original panel was showing American imperialism against historical Nazi facism (soldier attire), so it was very easily repurposed for the next ethnostate of Israel with the Nazi flag being redundant against the very obvious German soldier.

[–] anas@lemmy.world 42 points 20 hours ago (2 children)

Why are there way more AI comic posts than usual lately?

[–] chiliedogg@lemmy.world 21 points 19 hours ago (6 children)

Because sometimes people have an idea for a relevant comic, but not the artistic ability to draw it. So, they use AI tools to create the artwork.

[–] grrgyle@slrpnk.net 17 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

Damn, you're right, artistic talent is totally required to make webcomics.

I apologise for my glib response. I don't doubt your sincerity. Things may change in the future. It's just that in this particular historical moment AI has as much to do with democratising talent as nfts did with supporting solo artists/creators.

The message: 👍

The AI generated slop: 🫤

I could've made this art.

Fascist: "We're just following orders."

Liberal: "Court orders?"

Fascist: "Shut up and get in the van."

Liberal: "Okay, but I'm going to post a frowny face about it on Twitter."

[–] SplashJackson@lemmy.ca 55 points 23 hours ago (6 children)

Did AI make this? It looks like it

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 81 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

It was just following orders.

I wonder if Germans were this nonchalant about Hitler rising to power.

[–] xor@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 13 hours ago

The good news for (most of) the pieces of shit from the 1830s and 1940s is that there wasn't a tool for us to use to name and shame.
However for this generation of fascist scum there is now the internet. And it should be used to track down and tackle the ICE scumbags. Fuck them.

Edit: Reee, AI, blah blah because, yes, that's the most horrible thing about this post. Definitely not the kidnapping and fascism. Fuck sake.

can we please keep this AI shit out of here

[–] parmesan@lemmy.world 2 points 12 hours ago

Seriously, I'm here to look at artists' work, not computer generated slop

[–] This2ShallPass@lemmy.world 54 points 1 day ago

Don't get upset about AI. It was just following orders.
