My insurance covers therapy so I don’t have to pay for that one, but it doesn’t cover podiatry and I do pay that beforehand

A loss of oportunity of putting loss, yeah.

You lost The Game, btw.

The two first you linked had very notable AI artstyle (specially the second), but that last one was way better. Yet, not the models or efforts the average netizen will use to get AI images, so internet will get plagued with the bad quality ones with uncanny valleys and errors everywhere.

Look at this

And tell me how it looks good. Not the pic itself, but the artstyle. It’s still has traces of that shiny shitty AI artstyle.

Y’all treat AI as the fucking holy grail of technology. At one point, everything will be plagued by the cheap, shitty version of the AI images, and the better models will be trained on that instead of actual art, and then these cutting-edge models will be just another shitty image generator because it got more shitty AI images than art fed into it.

The main fucking problem with AI’s quality is that most people aren’t using these high-quality models, most people are using the first thing that they find. And since the people who know about the hugh-quality one are a minority, the internet will be plagued with low-quality, soulless art.

AI bros when criticism:

You know, it would have been a good analogy… if it wasn’t because it’s still done by a human in it.

AI is more akin to a Thermomix. Something that makes things for you when you don’t want to make them yourself. But then, you can’t really claim any credit, or claim it was made by a human.

Oh, wait. I’m gonna vibe code an app and say I made it with AI as if it was the same as doing it with an IDE instead of using notepad.

I’m an engineer. A prompt engineer! /s

Apart from my other comment, this post was a response to another post in the programmer humor community

This is the AI pic

and this is a drawing made by a commenter

But again, tell just how much betttttttttttttttter AI is

The most gorgeous thing AI has spat out is images in a shiny/glowy artstyle that at this point everyone knows is AI, with almost-faces that give the uncanny valley vibes, and backgrouds or text that barely makes any sense because the AI has no sense of reality and allucinates shit.

Thank you :b

Anything made by AI that gives the uncanny feeling of it being mostly right, but quite not perfect.

Imo, any art made by AI is by definition worth less than a human’s art because it had no effort and no soul. It’s just given instructions to copy one of the artstyles it was trained on to make an image, and kt can’t even do it properly.

So, by my definition that AI-made is worth less than human-made, and your argument that not all human things are worth anything, AI falls into negative worth. Which makes human-made worthless still more worth than soulless, uncanny AI.

AI was supposed to do work for us so we could do the things we actually wanted to do, among which there is art. Not supposed to do the things we actually want to do, like art, so we can keep working.

I have totally not done this meme because of this AI meme that I found in the programmer humor community

Excuse me, I’ll make it more clear now by adding an addendum to my original comment: /j

what if we made porn NFTs? 😳

So, hasn’t there been any discussion about unfedding from lemmy.ml and similar toxic instances?

So, tankies? At first I got attracted by the leftist/communist/socialist branding of the instance, but at the time the concept of fediverse was too complex for me when I first registered there so I deleted my account. I’m glad I did, then lol, supporting Putin, Xi, Kim just because they are “the left” is like supporting Hitler just because he is “the right”.
