Memes! A way of describing cultural information being shared. An element of a culture or system of behavior that may be considered to be passed from one individual to another by nongenetic means, especially imitation.

Personally, my bar for memes is if it makes me laugh. The amount of vitriol around it is a bit silly.

Yeah I agree, though I feel the vitriol is more about the moral implications of using AI (which I do agree with)

But I feel like I'm more likely to laugh at an AI meme than the same tired template I've been seeing for years. I swear meme culture has done permanent damage to society's ability to use their own words to communicate lol

Then again, a lot of people will watch the same sitcom on repeat. So maybe I'm just the weird one
