People did notice it wasnt AI. It was good.
It’s clearly not AI because it doesn’t have weird uncanny and wonky shit. Also the text on the monitor is readable even though it’s blurry
Ai image generators can pretty reliably do text now
Not at that scale, they can do larger text fine but at a certain size it just breaks down
However, it is cool that she recreated that AI look to trick them.
It’s way less recognizable as an AI “art” style to me tbh. Maybe the studio ghibli one? But I haven’t really seen art from that one and it even sounds like a stretch
it does look like that AI version of Ghibli. not like Ghibli directly
Exactly what I thought about the text
How dare you cheat and submit human-generated content to an honest AI competition? Entrants spent literally minutes crafting and refining prompts.

/S
That is such a cute picture

I’m not even against the idea¹ of using it for some shitty clip art on your corporate presentation or whatever, but it has decoupled ‘images’ from ‘art’ and ‘meaning’. They are not artists, they are not making art.
¹the practice, however, being ecologically devastating makes it less desirable.
A corporate can afford artist so they should artists, the situation is different for private people who may not have money to hire an artist or the skill to do themselves for their need
Concept applies, and you cannot get that authorized for Friday’s weekly bullshit meeting.
I have used AI to ‘create’ art and music for entirely personal purposes. I shared some too with friends but that’s the extent of it. I would never call myself an artist or musician. People who do are delusional at best.
My MIL paid some AI “creator” company to write a song for her husbands birthday.
Cost her $200 for a 90 second song…

I hope people keep doing this. It’s a few times now lol. Fuck Ai.
this is like a 2 year old meme at this point. Please don’t strip out the date when you take a screenshot of social media.
“strip out” implies it was there at all in the first place. I don’t know how you include an absolute date in a screenshot when no absolute date is actually displayed. I guess maybe hover over the relative time and hope that whatever OS or screenshot utility being used doesn’t cause a tooltip to disappear
fair enough; I don’t use proprietary sm anyway so I don’t know what’s common there.
it’s just one of so many things about software and websites in the past 5 years or so, everything must always be a relative date, with finding absolute dates and times being way more of a pain in the ass than it should be.
tiny but noticeable bit of enshittification :<
I don’t think relative dates is associated with proprietary software or enshitification. I’m using Lemmy over Jerboa (both FLOSS and not enshitified) and it uses relative dates.
I didn’t imply anything about licensing. It sucks no matter if its in proprietary or f/oss software.
Not you, the comment prior.
enshittification is user-negative changes which somehow benefit the software creators. I’m not sure relative dates qualify.
When was your comment made? I didn’t strip out any information.

3 hours ago of course.
Which means you replied to a comment 10 hours before it was posted.

Is this the reverse Turing test? It can be used to gauge if hominid hype followers can “really” think…
They can’t. I argue once to check if its just a casual ‘thing u heard’ or a committed thing, then block the slop cultists. I swear nft’s werent this annoying.
NFTs definitely were this annoying, but I also think its the same people doing it now with AI, so maybe its just the people who are annoying
Nft’s were extremely annoying, but the commitment wasnt this hard.
They were stupid and wasteful but not otherwise too horrible; they were just more and dumber collectible ‘ownership’ fetishism. Ignorable.
This shit destroys peoples minds entirely. People are dying over this shit. It murdered truth. It’s destroyed the world economy and set back climate adaptation by at least a decade while devastating a generation’s labor practices. And because it’s so horrible, the cultists are more fanatical, like how those people who sacrificed their kids to rfkjr cannot be rational or sane ever the fuck again.
Wow there is a lot packed into this comment, which I mostly agree with.
- Dumb collectible “ownership” fetishism
- Delusion epidemic due to AI addiction
- Decades-long Climate adaptation setback
- Devastating labor practices
- Cult doomsday syndrome reinforcing false beliefs
- Vaccine skepticism popularity and health outcomes
I am still baffled by how you managed to stuff the entirety of endstage capitalism dystopia into two short sentences. No wonder the word “fatigue” is featured in the username!
But I came here to point out that the last part is possible occurence of cognitive dissonance. When they have fucked up so badly, by commiting to such big evils, and especially sacrificing their kids health, yeah, there is no way back… Cognitive dissonance makes it impossible to admit the harm, so they are bound to reinforce the beliefs or face tremendous levels of guilt.
Was that really worth making the lights flicker on the Midwest grid?
Well, many people are not aware of the link between their ChatGPT projects and the rise in their electricity bill, nor the foreshadowed electricity drought. Contrary to what corpos had people believe about their “individual responsibility via recycling” their individual contribution to these outcomes is now actively suppressed by the billionaire-owned media. Curious.
Wow is it almost to the point humans can make art that looks real?
So, was it the first time you found out that you were AI? Or did you suspect beforehand?
Of course a hand drawn image by someone who can draw well is better - the artist practiced for years and took hours to draw this. On the other hand whoever took second place used a few minutes and had no training to produce something that was probably quite nice, too.
It’s this ‘everybody can produce art in seconds’ that is both good and bad. On the one hand I like how I can get a image of whatever I want for pennies, on the other hand I can understand how artist fear devaluation of their art.
Unpopular opinion here, but I feel like AI “art” will make my art the handmade furniture of art. AI art will forever be seen as cheap and my stuff, even if crappy, will be appreciated because a real person made it.
Lots of revenue streams to be lost along the way though. Mostly corporate and marketing ones, I reckon.
Alfredo Inshtine over here.
I fucking love cats so much!!!
I managed to coax some remarkable (to me) artwork from some of the free generators. Got bored real quick though.
Please don’t call it “artwork” because it’s not art nor work, call it “image”
so their art is so bad it was mistaken for ai? weird flex but ok.
More like, “This is the only one that doesn’t look like shit.”
more like “ooble gooble mordi bordi”
Well yeah, if you put it that way…
Another win for ricky.
Good point.

It won an AI art competition… because all the actual AI art was shit
I thought it was a pretty bizarre idea, to submit real art to a garbage fake art contest. And then post about it like it makes an obvious point or something. Not sure why they did that or what they think it means that they won
Edit: I take it the downvoters don’t understand it either.
i mean, if the contest has a prize it’d be some easy money and practice. nobody wants to be a starving artist
I guess that’s true. I just wouldn’t want the stank of AI on my work
Human art, even when claimed to be AI, conveys emotion and connects with people through it. Generative images lack the expression of emotion, and so they are found lacking connection when compared to art from a human of even moderate skill.
