I don’t care if it’s in a shitposting community, a meme community, or a news community. If the image or text is generated it should be labeled as such, and failing to label it should be grounds to remove the post. AI slop is a plague and its only going to get worse as the tech matures (if it hasn’t already peaked).
I’m so tired of having to call it out every time I see it, especially when people in the comments think it’s a photoshop work or (heavens help us) real. Human labor has real tangible value that plagiarism machines can’t even pretend to imitate and I’m sick of seeing that shit without it being labeled (so I can filter it out).
At the rate it’s advancing, pretty soon you won’t be able to tell which is which.
Nah, we’re cool. You and I can tell but AI won’t. So it will enshitificate it self into uselessness.
We should all strive to cause confusion in all sorts of databases so AI can’t unfuck itself.
You and the previous2 poster who complained about people complaining about AI slop should have a rap battle.
I thought this was the community for unpopular opinions?
I agree with you so hard, I actually have to downvote your post because of community.
You’d be surprised how many times I’ve gotten “well, it doesn’t matter cause this is such and such community”, which is why I posted it here.
I spent hours Photoshopping Elon Musk’s face onto Scarlett O’Hara (took so long because I made myself do it with Gimp 3). If I could have done it with AI, the results would likely have been better and that time wasted making a meme is something I won’t ever get back.
It’s not wasted completely time… you gained Gimp skills
Id take the terrible photoshop meme over the AI slop meme any day. 1 takes effort the other wastes electricity
The result would’ve been worthless trash because that’s all ai is.
Thank you for not contributing to the decay of artistic ability and creativity by actually taking the time to do it yourself. I’d rather a mountain of human made low effort shit over even one “good” generative “art”. Plagiarism machines can all die now
The result would’ve been worthless trash because that’s all ai is.
So an image created by an AI bad because it was created by an AI? Regardless of the the content?
How about an image created by an AI and then worked on by a human?If your process is to have a plagiarism machines output crap, and then you work on top of that, that’s your fucking choice. I wouldn’t do it, but to each their own.
I took a digital photo of Musk off of Google and cut/pasted it onto a frame grab from Gone with the Wind.
I hand crafted the plagiarism using plagiarism.
This is it. AI is a tool just like anything else. Before AI people would complain that a photo was ‘shopped and before that it was that the models in magazines were airbrushed.
All of these are tools that are at an artist’s fingertips and a good artist can do something great with if they put the time into it.
Yes, lazy people can create crap with it if they want but you really can’t be blaming the tool for what stupid humans do with it.
Output from generative AI is always garbage?
I believe gravity exists.
I have no issue with your opinion and I doubt very many others do.
AI slop should be banned in general
I’m not gonna disagree with that
I think people should be free to choose whatever they want. But I also think it should be easy for them to make that choice. Currently there’s no easy way to identify all the AI images.
Maybe if we had some sort of intelligent algorithm that could filter things… (I kid. Crowdsourcing tags would probably be easier and more accurate.)
As part of training AI you also create a second AI that detects whether something is AI or not. The solution is to use AI to detect AI. However running this on every single image is computationally very expensive.
Is this AI?
I can’t ever be sure unless an anal retentive wannabe mod declares so.

No, it’s not AI.
Very popular opinion
You would think so, but in my experience so far most group admins don’t give a shit, or even like it.
Dammit, I hated down voting this because I agree wholeheartedly.
But this is a common sentiment, it just isn’t getting reported about as heavily as all the advertising disguised as reporting. Even outside of lemmy, people are bitching about exactly this. Not just online either, and not just tech minded people.
Agreed
Oh no I used auto-complete to help write this message. Here comes the Lemmy police to remove my post.
I have been trying to block AI content communities when I see them, but it is an onerous task. Is there a way to remove items labeled as AI from my feed?
