Every time one of you dillholes posts a garbage AI image you generated you should get an uppercut directly to the balls.

Unfortunately acknowledging that they’re trash has only made “graphic design is my passion” dorks in the FOI section post them more.

Yeah, everytime I see those AI images I question what that person is thinking. So utterly useless and nonsensical.

What about gifs and memes? They make sense and have utility?

Sports fandom. Serious business.

memes and gifs are key to athletic performance, just like hydration

That was me.

I slipped, went down and took the apex of the concrete parking triangle right to the base of my skull my spine went down the side of the whole thing and then I slid, gracefully, like a curling rock, into the parking lot...simply staring at the enormity of the cosmos. It was a moment of pure beauty.

I went down. I went down hard. And I stayed there for a while. Contemplating life and the Universe and all of ensuing implications of my continuing to be a part of it.

Locke down. Locke. Down. And not having a good one today I might add.
The only thing missing here is the slow quarter turn as you came to a resting stop. Those are my only notes to make this a true quality description.

At this point the only thing worse than AI images that are easily scrolled past is the incessant whining about AI images.

Complaining about AI images has practically become a cultural subset.

Presumably because a moustache must be twirled in a smoky Parisian cafe whilst painting some masterpiece...

We get it. Some people dont like them. In other news...water...still wet?

GIFs and Memes require at least some effort. AI posters can't even be bothered to photoshop some proper numbers on jerseys. It's lame and lazy and that's why it gets no respect.

I really tried to generate that image, but most of them have these anti-freedom safety filters that say this is violence. So this is the best I got.

spoilered because I'm not a monster.


Spoiler!

Here, let me complain about AI in a way that’s more your speed:

Back on the FOI forum I saw someone using AI. Seriously. AI. On FOI. I couldn’t believe it.

I told them AI was trash. I. Couldn’t. Believe. It.

Trash! You know what they did?

Bet you can’t even guess.

They used AI even more! Can you believe it? I couldn’t.

You know about AI don’t you? Plus, who wouldn’t even want to see that?Six fingers and dead eyes? A regular horror movie!

I couldn’t believe it. I like my hands with five fingers. I like human eyes. Call me old fashioned. I couldn’t believe it. We live in a society! How many fingers do hockey players have? Five. Five fingers. I couldn’t believe it.

It gets worse. Oh boy, it gets worse.

I took my complaint to off topic. And you know what someone did?

You won’t believe it. I couldn’t.

They suggested I get over it!

Now, I can get over a lot of things. But this? No.

Oh no sir.

Not today. Not on my watch.

Not on My. Watch.

I couldn’t believe it.

So you know what I did? Ha. You won’t believe it.

I wrote an entire post mimicking their posts. Now what do you think they’ll say about that?

Nothing, I bet. I bet they couldn’t even believe it. AI? Not on my watch.Locke Peps always gets the last laugh!

Ha!

This is almost verbatim of what Bingo said about people complaining about the ads.

AI art is so lame. It's easy for those that want to be noticed without doing anything, but other than that it's just complete clutter. It's not so much how horrible it is as much as how many people clutter up the internet with their creation, like it's something they did.

It's slop.

Been using Bolt recently to create an app, what a piece of ####.

I find AI is okay if you need a solution to an existing problem. It's basically useless for novel or seemingly unpopular problems.

I had to check something on my humidifier, and the Google AI showed a picture of mine exactly, and a bunch of things to try. Turns out the text doesn't match the picture, and the instructions were for a totally different model. Not very helpful. I should just disable it, been misled a few times.
