    i thought about how to reply to this a bunch… because like - ur totally right-- but also i felt somewhat unnecessarily attacked >~<

    the controversial post i would have made would have been with the following content

    content of post

    i would have drawn an angry man hitting a computer, with the text of my comment:

    somethingsomething

    AI BAD!

    in a round kind of way ~
    with bottom text

    (now go and like my post)

    the goal would be to make it look as if it were generated using openais image gen 1 model, so i would have

    • looked at some generations from that model to match that cartoon style
    • made sure to make some of the text slightly mangled
    • overlayed a tea-color and dense noise filter which that model is known for

    similar like how another post tried to, this one would essentially bait for being flagged as ai… dunno why, but i thought that was funny. it also would have made fun of people actually posting their low quality slop made using the most lazy prompting.

    it also would have played on the “hate-post” thing, which tends to amount looooots of likes and stuff ~
    (see all the “the bubble is bursting” and “ai makes u dumb” videos)

    sketch of post

    a sketch i made just for this comment <3

    You are absolutely right ✅—the stuff isnt a fun novelty anymore and its primarily being used by bad people for bad things and now even in war apparently.

    so like… its not like im pro-ai, see this post- im very much aware of the evil and the bad happening, more so than most anti-ai peeps i believe.

    ive been around the bubble because i find the topic intellectually stimulating. the idea of curating some data to let a prediction mechanism grab onto those patterns to predict following sequences-- just seems like an interesting engineering process, especially when it comes to behavioural analysis.
    but over time ive been disappointed, as the majority of that bubble is made of disgusting people, business people and spammers with only a few people interested in doing fun research.

    over the last year or so, ive been moving away from the ai bubble. removing discords, bookmarks, yt channels and even local language models from my devices (besides my phones keyboard auto-correct… i wont let u peeps take that away from me!)

    i did post plenty stuff on lemmy concerning the topic— but like - all of em were either jokes, technical stuff or ideas (correct me if im wrong, may have forgotten something)

    i do have a character flaw, but not the one you portrayed:

    the character flaw i believe i have

    when i see a topic being dominated by one opinion, i usually want to know where the other side is coming from. why do people vote for trump? why would anyone be pro-ai? who in their right mind would not want to at least try pineapple on pizza? then once i understand the other side (which is usually more nuanced than the “right side” likes to imagine) makes a lot more sense to me.

    this is where imma leave it i think… might still make that post tho— for the funzies-

    (yes, the comment was generated entirely by a human brain connected to a human body)

    EDIT: for anyone whos not aware: i dont dabble with image, video and audio generation stuff… not my thing.

    omygosh I looooove suche environments!!! Luv em luv em luv em!!!

    so genuinely magical, makes em think, dream, imagine, remind myself of when I was at parks with friends and looking at the “cittus garden”

    cirtrus garden spoiler

    it has lemons and stuff

    like - the pillars r just doing it for me. and the sunshine ooooooh the sunshine.

    it makes me want to design new places.

    but! BUT! the foliage. now we are truly in metroid prime territory.

    I want to sit there, amongst the pillars and doodle on a piece of paper and look up every 2 minutes and sigh for 30 seconds to a minute.
