fuck off, i already saw this computer rendered anonymized plagiarism (CRAP) meme
I’m stealing that acronym, you can’t stop me! <(￣︶￣)>
i stole it too!
👍
What’s the artist’s name?
Looks like Microsoft Copilots recent works.
ai slop detected
I swear I’ve seen this exact thing except not AI slop ages ago
Like less than a month ago, AI slop AND reupload ⌤
Edit: I’m stupid, you meant the original… Which I think I also saw, but I’m not sure? Mandela Effect maybe!!!
Another edit: Okay, I NEEDED to search for it (Sleep be damned), and I found one very similar!! Posted on Reddit eight years ago, way before the GenAI boom: https://www.reddit.com/r/funny/comments/6gzfra/damn_wish/
Ai i can see but what makes this ‘slop’? Other than that those words go together?
The lack of artistic value.
What do you mean by artistic value?
This article by Cory Doctorow explains it quite well, I think.
I see what they’re saying but I don’t think they put it right, and I don’t think it applies to this post either way.
Intent is a concious thought. Just because the artist had an intent while making the art doesn’t imbue every detail with the intent. Every subconsious microdecision doesn’t necessarily align with the artist’s intent and neither could I hope to extract meaningful information from them. I can only understand what the artist intentionally put in there. But I get what they’re saying, there are countless conscious decisions an artist makes while making their thing.
Needless to say artistic value isn’t measured by the amount of intent. It does makes sense that the guy above meant intent when they said value though
Anyhow, IMO the visuals of a meme is the last place to seek artistic intent. Especially with these ‘joke with visual assist’ kinds of memes the grand majority of artisitc intent is the joke with the visuals being a tool to adapt it to a visual medium. If anything I think the visuals of this meme have more artistic intent than the recurring characters of a webcomic strip telling a joke to each other.
Hence to me “The lack of artistic value/intent” seems to be more of a justification for not liking ai art (edit: meant this post specifically, not ai art in general), not the reason of it

I disagree. The fact that art includes the intended bits, as well as the unintended ones makes it so interesting IMHO. The fact that you always put a little piece of yourself (as well as your artistic abilities) into the art is amazing and impossible to recreate from a machine.
Take the sanic meme, or “It’s Friday” by Rebecca Black. None of these people wanted to make “bad” art, but they still put it out there and the imperfection made the pieces so popular.

Even the worst webcomic carries more artistic intent than some AI slop. You can clearly measure the “artistic intent” of whateis contained in AI slop: it’s the prompt. If I prompt an AI “Make a funny comic”, then the artistic intent is “make a funny comic” (and maaaaybe all the other prompts beforehand that I didn’t want to propagate).
it’s visibly lacking creative input from a human
Beep boop bullshit
Looks like AI? Is there an original?
This is a fairly old joke and this is the earliest one I could find with a date on it (2014).
It’s similar and I’ve seen stuff like that before, but it’s not the same gag.
Last week I saw a single panel joke about cats exercising with toilet paper treadmills. There were two nearly identical images circulating on Lemmy simultaneously, one being the original and the other one the obvious AI ripoff.
But I appreciate you having a look around
It is the same fucking joke.
Honestly don’t know. It’s saved to my “memes and funny” folder on my phone. I care not from whence the HAHA flows, only that it does.
