To the several people who reported this post:

This community does not have a ban on AI generated images. Especially ones as silly and harmless as this.

Should a user abuse AI generated images, such as spamming them, then action will be taken against them. But one-off silly images like this are fine.

This decision should be reconsidered and I would downvote if my instance allowed. Almost every comment is against it here.

There are ethical concerns with the use of AI, especially image generation.

c/dogs has a strict no AI policy, and it seems to be appreciated by our users.

This take is this community's equivalent to the sole c/dogs mod (who very recently took over) banning people for putting up facts about pitbulls: pitiful

It’s getting kinda good at the text isn’t it. Crazy compared to even half a year ago.

I suspect the images were generated and then the text, chart, and framing were done by hand

The text has an AI vibe to it, I can't find the words for what tips me off when I see it

It has inconsistent font weight from character to character. It’s easiest to see on the smallest finest characters.

The people in this thread that ignore valid reasons for disdain towards AI are exhausting. “Just let me lol at thing and move on.” Me, I miss the days of even just drawing a meme up in MS Paint. I don’t want this Uncanny Valley dog shit. It’s not actual intelligence, it exists solely because of theft, and it’s ruining the environment.

This wouldn't have taken much time or skill to make in GIMP or Krita.

🤮 garbage Ai slop

[–] Stalinwolf@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 weeks ago

Scrungus is my favorite, but he is absolutely not a friend. He is a menace.

This portraits feel AI generated, there's something off about them

My stance is on AI is that generative AI being used to do all the work and stealing jobs is wrong but it can still be used as a tool to help workers get their jobs done faster
