But this would’ve been so freaking easy to do practical, just put some "graphic design is my passion"-esque text on some image of Taylor Swift, use it as you wallpaper and take an image
Not really. Do you really think I have Taylor Swift posters up around the house?
This was a joke in comments about Nicolas Cage Linux that I threw together in about 10 minutes while I was having coffee, and my phone was infinitely far away in another room, so it would have been a laptop screen customized to the point that you can't tell what distro is in there, in front of a kitchen. Not quite the same as taking some AI Taylor Swift-themed setting and then adding an over the top Mint background violated by T-Swizz.
The superficiality is kind of the point I'm trying to make. Repackage Mint as "MinTay Linux" and that's all it would take for the Swifties to pounce on something as "challenging" as switching from Windows to Linux. There, Peter explained the joke to you, are you happy?
The Mint desktop is 3 layers of screepcaps mashed together in GIMP. Do you really think an AI that can't get a keyboard right managed to get the Mint desktop background right and add her face perfectly?
I miss netbooks so god damned much! Amazing machines. Only reason they don't make them anymore is because they can make ten times more money on making ten times worse shitmachines because people will just buy what's available anyway, there is no "the consumer decides what's on the market" and there never was, it was always a lie, people will buy what they're offered and like it.

to be fair, shitty dumb memes is probably the best use of AI slop there is.

nah, I don't feel like wasting insane amounts of electricity and water to make a meme

Shouldnt a low effort post actually look like there was little effort put in? AI is trying to look like something high-effort

I was not talking about if the post was made with AI or not
I just was responding to someone talking about a potential use of AI

All you had to do was google "thinkpad" and pick out a stock photo.
GreenShimada@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 292d
Well, I was trying to get some bootleg free generator give me a pink Tay-Tay themed desktop and it was only giving me MBPs for a while.
And would the stock photo included Taylor Swift posters in the background?
JandroDelSol@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 292d
why are those necessary

How are they not necessary?
