That's right! It goes in the square hole.

- "square hole"
  
  That's right!

Are we really turning to AI to create a few 3D shapes and a rock wall with a hole in it?
I get the joke - it’s funny even. But seriously I would rather see a crude stick drawing from someone with no artistic talent than this soulless slop.
- Someone made a better version back in 2021 as well.

- It's so fucking common these days. I keep seeing it on things I want to like, but I refuse to encourage the behavior.
  
  Then why are you on Lemmy's leading AI friendly instance created by the guy who makes the AIhorde? Seems kind of like a conflict of interest...
- how did you recognise it? I only managed to after zooming in to see the wobble in the text
  
  Personally? Vibes. Specifically, it feels very... uniform. Like, a human artist good enough to draw like that would be better at composition, I think?
  More practically, even the newer ones struggle with specific shapes; look at the arch, no human would draw that weird hybrid of an arch and a... semi-donut?
  Older models struggle with lining stuff up and keeping things straight over long distances. The latest ones struggle with constant curvatures.
  
  The obvious one to me was the two pyramid triangle things.
  The block box thing only comes with one.
  
  Sizes are off, especially the circle wouldn't fit.
  
  This is the new comic style being spammed everywhere. I think the most telling thing is that literally everything has this paper texture in a digital drawing, except the speech bubble, also this font is very specific to them.
  It is getting harder spotting AI, but very doable yet.
- I don't know how to make this. I would have asked AI.
  Something being made by ai doesn't automatically make it bad.
  Im not sure how you know it's ai
  
  I don’t know how to make this. I would have asked AI. Something being made by ai doesn’t automatically make it bad.
  That's my point. It doesn't have to look like this. It could look way shittier and make the same joke - the joke would land the same way. So why add a middleman? I'd rather see the shitty drawing by a human brain.
  I don't think AI is bad - I think using AI to create art is bad. AI used in technical applications makes sense, cracking our genome, predicting weather events, creating new medicines. I want the experiences that make us uniquely human to remain made by humans.
  Im not sure how you know it’s ai
  This generic style has been popping up a lot recently. Also observe the odd varying width in the letters, that's a common indication. It also lacks much sense on a logical level, something a human can typically discern when creating art. Why are there four speech bubble indicators but six objects? Why two pyramids? None of these things further improve or modify the joke - so why were they included? Not saying a human couldn't make these artistic choices, but they add up and set off my AI alarm bells.
  
  It doesnt have to look as good to work as a meme
- Agreed, but it's all downhill from here. When AI generated content is completely indistinguishable from human, things will
I'm not an anti-AI absolutist, but for environmental reasons we should significantly cut down on the use of AI, especially for unnecessary things such as memes.
- My GPU generates stuff in seconds that would take hours to make, once the model is trained it's pretty much no energy to use it.
  
  Okay fair enough.
- Ehhh I don't like AI but high quality shitposts are like the best use of AI imo. I guess it depends on the effort
  Like for example this unironically goes hard: https://youtu.be/B05KyAyAa4k
  
  I mean it's nice to have high quality shit posts but AI is still the electronic equivalent of coal rolling.
- Totally disagree in free unnecessary short loves things is the most justified if anything. Would you be more hour editing a meme that may or may have not any traction that what it will probably live on the internet? Doesn't make much sense.
  
  How and why are you spending more than an hour editing a meme?
- I mean if people use a self-hosted model on their own GPU that's really their prerogative how they choose to use their GPU and the energy it uses.
I just got the hardcopy of this novel about a week ago and it's amazing.
- I’m oblivious. What novel is this?
  
  Other commenter got the title. The artist is Junji Ito, and he has a lot of works as equally creepy as this one. Uzumaki might be the most popular one
  
  The Enigma of Amigara Fault
That's not the only meme it's referencing, OP.
