God these Ai memes need to stop. Much happier with poorly photoshopped memes thank you very much

At least we knew that those required some effort…

The issue here is that the thing this is a response to is AI. Try to create a different version and the trumpsters won't get it

OpenHammer6677@lemmy.world · 20 pts · 127d (2 replies)

Sorry but "Annoying trumpsters" is still not a valid use of Ai imho. You can pretty much annoy them with anything, so there's really no need to waste resources or encourage Ai use for this

FauxPseudo@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 127d

It's not just annoying Trumpsters. This is a rephrasing of something they supported which was AI generated. Could I paint this manually? Probably. It would take me a week. Probably but by then we're going to be worrying about nuclear hamsters or something.

This is a variation of the thing they're supporting which was generated by ai and shared by the president. Any variation in artistic style is going to ruin the illusion and the message.

What's your plan? Are you just going to whine like this for the foreseeable future?

OneWomanCreamTeam@sh.itjust.works · 2 pts · 126d

A good joke could fly over their heads if you buried it. Making sure the trumpets get you is a lost cause.

MurphysPaw@sh.itjust.works · 2 pts · 126d

It's one of the few things it's actually good for imo

TheOctonaut@piefed.zip · -6 pts · 127d (2 replies)

What a surprising and original and nuanced opinion! I'm sure glad to see one of these comments on every image post, AI or not.

Can you people just use the down-vote button like you're supposed to and move on?

moonshadow@slrpnk.net · 3 pts · 126d (1 reply)

Let me get this straight... you're actually asking for less human input and more slop? Isn't posting about shit/reading people's takes kinda the whole game here?

TheOctonaut@piefed.zip · -1 pts · 126d

No just less human input where the human input is low-effort upvote farming asking for something that is completely irrelevant to the original post. We get it. AI bad.

JonsJava@lemmy.world MOD · 37 pts · 126d (3 replies)

This post has been reported as AI Slop

This is one of the rare cases we allow it, as it is a direct response to an actual political event, in the exact same manner.

moonshadow@slrpnk.net · 15 pts · 126d (2 replies)

I think this is a mistake, half the discussion here is just calling it out. "They slopped first" is no justification, it's still a wildly resource intensive attempt to replace human output

e: also the one where he's healing Epstein is way funnier :p

RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 126d

I agree with both of you.

Vreyan31@reddthat.com · 20 pts · 127d (3 replies)

I think this just annoys everyone.

Obama possibly among most of all.

takeda@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 4 pts · 126d (2 replies)

Yeah, this is blasphemous for Christians. Since Obama is a Christian I can't see him appreciate being portrayed as God.

tacoplease@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 126d

But but this is just Dr Barack, not God or Jesus...

mattyroses@lemmy.today · -1 pts · 126d

Yes, he ordered drones to kill civilians for Jesus!

You can find great ways to annoy them without ai

FauxPseudo@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 127d (14 replies)

But fighting AI with not AI is not going to be as successful for the target audience.

wholookshere@piefed.blahaj.zone · 8 pts · 127d (13 replies)

Do you actually think your convincing anyone with a meme, AI or not?

nymnympseudonym@piefed.social · 3 pts · 126d (1 reply)
wholookshere@piefed.blahaj.zone · 1 pts · 126d

So that means they must be right?

FauxPseudo@lemmy.world · -1 pts · 127d (10 replies)

It's not necessary to convince them. It's enough to shake them. Trump posted his vision of himself as Jesus. Sub out the main character and some people will realize the thing they are defending is extremely problematic. The character substitution is their enemy.

wholookshere@piefed.blahaj.zone · 2 pts · 126d (9 replies)

S again, you think it was just the picture, not just who made it.

FauxPseudo@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 126d (8 replies)

When was the last time you saw a successful parody that did not mimic the style of the original thing being parodied? When you create a meme do you hand cut your letters like back in the '60s or do you use a computer a typeset library? How would you go about the process of making it in the same style as the thing that it is a parody of without using AI and would that be more or less resource intensive? Do you know how many gallons of water it takes to make and clean some paint brushes? What the carbon footprint of seven tubes of paint is?

wholookshere@piefed.blahaj.zone · 2 pts · 126d (7 replies)

Your now making the claim those are similar, so post your figures.

Because you really believe the carbon footprint of a tube of paint and its shipping is comparable to a gas turbine generator running 24/7, and the Google data centre using 2 million gallons per day.

Okay buddy.

Edit:

When was the last time tubes of paint Made someone's home electrical rates rise

FauxPseudo@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 126d

But you know that it did not take 2 million gallons to make this. So the daily total is irrelevant.

Trying to own the conservatives by out-stupiding them?

FauxPseudo@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 127d (3 replies)

By pointing out that they can easily see the problem when it's a person they hate in the role of a religious icon.

14th_cylon@lemmy.zip · 5 pts · 127d (1 reply)

these people don't go to lemmy for memes and they have no problems with hypocrisy, if they did, their heads would explode long time ago...

FauxPseudo@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 126d

People go through Lemmy for memes that they can share other places.

marcos@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 126d

Good look on performatively out-stupiding the conservatives, though. I wouldn't take those odds.

Janx@piefed.social · 2 pts · 126d (1 reply)

Yeah, but. As a general rule Democrats and independents don't deify their representatives. Obama was about 1,000,000x better than Trump, but I don't worship him. I don't wear his merch and put up giant signs covering my home and business proclaiming my loyalty to him, make him my entire personality and argue against the bad things he did. Remember, even the president is supposed to serve the People...

FauxPseudo@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 126d

I remember when AM radio hosts were bothered by how much Obama was making off merchandising those posters and how unbecoming it was for someone trying to be president.

Weird how those same people said nothing when Trump started merchandizing everything from hats to wear when welcoming back dead soldiers, gold shoes, Bibles, NFT cards and a ballroom.

Do that's how he was made stupid by Obama!
