Popular and profitable things do way more damage no matter how “uncool” they are. Boomers making minion images will only worsen the problem.
I dont know why it upsets people. Maybe accept that it exists in the world and it only mimics real human creativity.
If there was a fish that could mimic and recreate human art would you be mad at the fish?
It’s a plagarism machine that is being used to put actual artists out of work
Not to mention teachers (it steals our lessons and tutoring work), writers (it steals their work and rehashes it), musicians (music generation is a thing), programmers (so many code snippets, so few coding jobs), and many more.
And if the fish did just the same, putting artists out of work, would you be just as mad that the fish exsisted?
Maybe if a fish was hooked up to a machine running terabytes (edit: actually, petabytes, probably) of stolen data through its brain, punishing it when it fails to produce similar results, until it can produce them… Then I would hate the people who did this to the fish, and the people who support them by using the fish to produce art.
Its a fish, there are millions of them. You just get one and put it an aquarium in your house and they create these works through telepathy and telekinesis.
work isn’t something anyone is entitled to
Plagiarism isn’t real except for capitalism and the machine of capitalist innovation has been eating jobs for as long as science has existed. If this is the reason someone is upset by AI, then I would ask why they were not mad at all the jobs that came before that had been consumed.
There’s no option for me to choose a copyright-free world. But, I can choose to not use (or promote or propagate) works made by “AI” owned my MASSIVE corporations in violation of the copyrights of millions of independent, often non-profit-driven content creators (including myself).
Copyright lawsuit incoming
Aren’t they doing this already? Seriously have any of you been on facebook. It’s full of that crap.
Exactly! The ‘death’ of facebook has in no way seemed to impact its influence on everything. I still find places that use a facebook page as their company website. The marketplace is inescapable if you want to buy or sell something used.
All this idea would do is establish a very well known area for AI to be used in… and it would serve the same function as a reservoir of infection for pathogens.
Or even local municipalities publishing important adivice.
/hey did you know that they have to cut the water supply to work on these leaking pipes? /no /why not we put it on facebook /…
No i don’t have facebook, O just wish people who used it understood this little fact of life. But no. They rely on facebook for local communication, essentially cutting out anyone else.
That one freaking kills me. I can only hope that the movement of some places onto mastodon might help be a gentle push and a guide that can be pointed to for other places to follow.
But that’s all bots generating clickbait right?
This used to be a $1200 commission.

Banana?
mmmm…buh-na-nuh…
Why clock?
because the model wanted it? idk.

Also you know those boomers won’t stop at the hundredth image, thus all the AI services will go broke.
I think you mean “justify bigger bonuses”
I like it.
It’s the “Use your kid’s slang to make them realize it’s garbage” reverse card.
I feel like it usually minionizes anything it touches anyways, so that’s a surprisingly good fit for it.
“Potato!”
Or something. IDK, I haven’t watched the movies…
I remember finding it funny and endearing when I first watched it. And then it just… never… stopped…
I think that was every normal person’s experience with minions. They were funny as side characters in the film, but then the sequels and spinoffs leaned too heavily into them and the memes started and everyone with 2 braincells to rub together said “fuck this” and ignored the minion scurge to fester
Too bad the supreme court put the dagger in artists backs for AI already. It would have been great if a company would license an artists source material to make a set of variations for a limited venue. Like a company licensing a voice actor’s samples, then they get to use AI to make those characters say whatever they want, in that one movie, or that one game, based on the license.
As it is now, we’re going to end up with Spruce Lee fighting Hackie Chan movies, and none of the actors or their estates will get to say shit about it.
Okay, so how do you make minion memes with it? I have no clue myself
We could start with posting memes in the meme community…
