    Making an observation like this about the world takes as much effort as thinking of the next tragedy you could turn into an AI Pixar photo, as in, none whatsoever. Hell it will probably get harder as more ai images are created, the hardest part of this post was you thinking of Custer’s Revenge as a tragedy that hasn’t been done.

    Your observation was an emotional reaction probably spurred by comments posted by other people. Honestly far far less interesting than an AI image of Custer’s revenge. And by the way, id like to see you make an effort to create that AI image of Clusters revenge at the same quality I’ve seen other AI images. I can almost guarantee you it will take you more effort than it took to create this.

      Yeah, typing sounds like a lot more effort than typing.

        Precisely my point. The only point where effort comes in is knowing how to manipulate the prompt to get a good looking image and knowing which program will get you the best result.

        If your exposure of ai generated images is exclusively tech demos like the one on bing sure thats what happening.

        Its not what’s happening in the art space though, i propose you a challenge to proof the effort.

        Install automatic1111 with stable diffusions. (one of the few actual proper ai generating tools, most sites/appa that promise ai generated art use a dumb version of this tool under the hood.

        Use it to Create a poster for a classic video game in the style of modern animation without any visible Disney/pixar logos.

        Good luck, most people give up before they Get their first proper output.

      It’s funny that you focus so much on the Custer’s Revenge part, since that literally took the least effort.

      I agree that using the meme wasn’t too much of an effort. But I consider the creative process I had to be:

      1. Make an observation that the AI Image ideas are lazy.
      2. Think of an appropriate meme format that fits my opinion on the matter.
      3. Create the meme without a watermark (that’s more technical than creative)
      4. Think of an atrocity that’s not too much in bad taste (I don’t want to make fun of the Armenian genocide). That’s literally the last few seconds before I posted.

      That’s it. Making the observation and finding an established term to express that in the context of a specific community is IMHO way more creative than being the n-th person to think “wouldn’t it be fucked up if Disney made this?”
