My favorite Chinese meme is just this ninja throwing a brick. I have no idea what it means but I use it all the time

Not telling y'all that you should be able to identify AI slop (but it is a valuable skill, you totes should), but if you're to be accusing artists of being AI left and right at least go and do your homework, or at least do the bare minimum and use AI identification tools like Hive Moderation, so you 1- don't ruin someone's lifehood 2- don't make a clown out of yourself maybe

Like, i get it, AI slop and "AI artists" pretending to be genuine is getting harder and harder to identify, but just accusing someone out of the blue and calling it a day doesn't make it any better.

The AI clowns shifted to styles that have less "tells" and the AI arts are becoming better. Yeah, it sucks ass.

They're also integrating them with memes, so you chuckle and share, like those knights with pink backgrounds, some cool frog and a funny one liner, so you get used to their aesthetic.

This is an art from the new coming set Final Fantasy for MtG. This is someone on Reddit accusing someone of using AI. From what i can tell, and i fucking hate AI, there is NO AI used on this image.

As far as i can tell and as far as any tool i've used, the Artist didn't use AI. which leads to the next one:

they accused the artist of this one of using Ai. the name of this artist is Nestor Ossandon.

He as already been FALSELY ACCUSED of using AI, because he drew a HAND THAT LOOKED A LITTLE WEIRD, which caused a statement from D&D Beyond, confirming that no AI has been used.

Not to repeat mysef, they're accusing the art above, that is by Nestor, to have used Ai.

REAL artists are not machines. And just like the AI slop, we are not perfect and we make mistakes. The hands we draw have wonky fingers sometimes. The folds we draw are weird. But we are REAL. We are real people. And hey, some of our "mistakes" sometimes are CHOICES. Artistic choices are a thing yo.

If you're to accuse someone of using Ai, i know it's getting hard to identify. But come on. At least do your due diligence.

luwha

Btw this is what I meant when I said the knights in pink background with one liners. Sick of this shit. All AI.

mtomauw

All those pixelated wizard memes are also AI

mtomauw

All of these are also AI generated Idfk why the wizard meme enjoyers also wanna cockslobber AI so bad but right now if you see a fucking wizard meme it's probably ai

artificial-absinthe

Isn’t it weird how every situation always lapses in harrasment of artist? As if it wasn't enough getting robbed and threatened by ai anti-art , now artists have to endure be insulted and accused.

Missing clothes or any detail is not evidence of ai! Thats absurd. It means the artist forgot them or just didn't want to do it.

Modification to design is by no means sign of ai use! That's absurd. That's due to stylistic/design choices.

Strange hands or unaccurate folds/wrinkles in fabric are historically a complain of beginner artists because they're so hard to learn.

So you can't go looking for those details to try to identify ai anti-art, let alone ruin an artists based on that when all the imbeciles board the difamation train without a second thought (refer to the oldest definition of "imbecile")

Ai anti-art is evident in how stiff and synthetic (in a derogatory way) it looks, how dirty and hard the light. It indeed looks like the vomit after pixels shake that it is.

luwha

Sorry, i can't let this one pass.

This is simply not true.

We don't accidentally draw structures that fade into the crowd and bodies hat morph into other bodies. Yeah, we may portray perspective with inaccuracy either by accident or purpose but art is made with intent, and the lack of intentionality is an AI trait.

This type of behavior on structures isn't an artist accidentally making a mess. An AI doesn't know when or where a perspective ends, so it decided to end it in the middle of a crowd.

Same on those hair ornaments. It KNOWS it was supposed to be there, but it doesn't have the intentionality of knowing what they were supposed to be. So it looks like a garbled mess.

A real artist may mess up the shape of those hair ornaments, but they know what they were supposed to look like.

On this one, the hair blends into the clothes, the flower become a frill, the skirt become a piece of hair and turns asymmetrical. there is no intentionality here.

This is a level of fuck up no human artist make. Because human artists know what they're doing. They make HUMAN mistakes. This is not a HUMAN mistake.

--> I am not shaming any of you for not being able to discern Ai art from human art. This wasn't the intent of this post. <--

What I'm saying is that identifying AI slop is a good skill to have, and if you're to ACCUSE someone of being AI, you MUST know what AI art is and how to identify it.

AI slop "artists" are, and i can't stress enough, pretending to be human. They're doing all they can to pretend to be regular artists, so they can sell prints, merch, and have tables at cons, that so far don't let them.

Accusing the RIGHT AI SLOP OF BEING AI IS A GOOD THING. Accusing the wrong person will fuck their lifehood.

Stay safe and please stop putting AI slop on my dash.

[Text ID: Days after immigration officers arrested a prominent pro-Palestinian campus activist, administrators at Columbia University gathered students and faculty from the journalism school and issued a warning.

Students who were not U.S. citizens should avoid publishing work on Gaza, Ukraine and protests related to their former classmate's arrest, urged Stuart Karle, a First Amendment lawyer and adjunct professor. With about two months to go before graduation, their academic accomplishments — or even their freedom - could be at risk if they attracted the ire of the Trump administration.

"If you have a social media page, make sure it is not filled with commentary on the Middle East,' he told the gathering in Pulitzer Hall. When a Palestinian student objected, the journalism school's dean, Jelani Cobb, was more direct about the school's inability to defend international students from federal prosecution.

"Nobody can protect you," Mr. Cobb said. "These are dangerous times.

You can only reblog this today! Next time Thursday 20 will follow Wednesday 19 will be in 2439!

Hey everyone, I know it's going to be a busy day for a lot of people, but Google enrolled everyone over 18 into their AI program automatically.

If you have a google account, first go to gemini.google.com/extensions and turn everything off.

Then you need to go to myactivity.google.com/product/gemini and turn off all Gemini activity tracking. You do have to do them in that order to make sure it works.

Honestly, I'm not sure how long this will last, but this should keep Gemini off your projects for a bit.

I saw this over on bluesky and figured it would be good to spread on here. It only takes a few minutes to do.

Trying to sell handmade crafts in this economy is so. Like. Hey guys I know we're all broke as fuck but do you want my silly little things. I'm very good at it. For the time it takes to make them + skill + materials it's gonna be 30$ per silly little thing. But also shipping costs 12$ for reasons outside my control so it's actually 42$ now. Sorry. No I really can't charge less than that. Yeah I know. Ok. Bye

tlirsgender

And this is for my things that are silly and little. I'm not even one of those people making, like, quilts and blankets and shit. Can we pour one out for the fiber artists making quilts and blankets and shit

tlirsgender

I'm presenting a tiny crocheted bird to you. Putting it into the palm of your hand. This can be yours. For what seems like too much money but I promise it isn't. We've all just really lost sight of fiber arts' value with industrialization and outsourced sweatshop labor etc. This is actually the minimum I could ask for without fucking myself. I don't like what this implies about mass produced items either. It's really horrific. You can get an ethically sourced 42$ tiny crocheted bird though

tlirsgender

Shortly after posting this I received an order for nearly 200$ worth of tiny crocheted birds this is the good luck post for people actually paying for your handmade crafts

You should be able to say “don’t touch me” to anyone ever in any context and not have it be considered in the realm of surprising or insulting imho if we ever needed to normalize something it’s this
