Fuck AI

"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Found it while looking for some art for my home D&D game (ergo; fair use). If I follow the link it gives an error 404 on the adobe stock photo website, so either they removed it or I need to be logged in. This is the url that duckduckgo gave me: https://stock.adobe.com/images/sentinel-of-the-realm-a-fierce-female-guard-stands-ready-in-this-stunning-dndfront-portraitfantasy-generative-ai-generative-ai/571643612. If someone with an adobe account is willing to check if this is actually still for sale, I'd be very grateful!

If it's AI, it's copyright-free so not only is it fair use to do what you want with it, you can even profit from it if you feel like it.

This and other slop generators have made it incredibly difficult to find token/character art for virtual TTRPGs that isn't garbage. Fortunately, I'm a creative with shitty art skills and made my own.

You'd think it'd be manually retouched or improved in some way but no, it's the sloppiest slop that ever slopped. No effort whatsoever to make it even halfway decent.

Its soooo bad holy shit. Like this is some 2020 first generation AI slop

I do love the hair sprouting right from the eyeball. That's some Cronenberg body distortion right there.

The hovering bejeweled metal collar that was forged around her is just so badass that a human couldn't have thought to draw it

Looking closer at the eyes, the left one has a distorted iris, and the right's bottom lid could be cancerous.

Just to clarify, these are the requirements to sell stock imagery via Adobe Stock. They aren't stringent whatsoever (I love that they advertise "33% royalties" like that's not "we take 66% for publicity and basic infrastructure"), so it's not like this uploader was some trusted partner. The fact OP found it and then quickly got a 404 is, to me, actually a decent sign that slop like this isn't welcome there.

Aside: I'm yearning for Hbomberguy's video on Adobe and hopefully watching that madman tear them a new asshole.

They've been doing that pretty much since the beginning back when this first started coming out. A few YouTubers I watch said they had to stop using Adobe's stock photos a few years back because they didn't wanna accidentally use AI.

Surely they won't exhibit copyright on the famously uncopyrightable thing

At least they have the decency to tag it in the url (twice, it seems). Makes it easier to block wholesale.

The clearest proof that it's AI is the random hair on her face
