I don’t see why they would use AI instead of picking an appropriate image or making something quick in Gimp or paint, it just makes me not want to be part of those communities.

    The ones you notice are years old. Good luck noticing the ones made with modern models.

      Not necessarily. I still see recently made AI posters and profile pics all over the place that have a distinct slop veneer. So maybe not old, but using a cheap model or some common or older ai tool.

      Agree with your point tho - a lot more is possible these days. We all probably consume a lot more slop than we think, even images and video.

      People need to decide for themselves whether they’re worried about the quality/utility of the thing, or the provenance and the effort put into it. For some of these things, even if the quality isn’t there yet, it will be soon.

      Personally I don’t care much about how nice the image is, even if it doesn’t scream ai at the top of its lungs. Let’s have something human-made. Of course then that opens up other questions of trust and authenticity.
