    Why the fuck is everyone calling this image AI slop?? It’s been around for ages and does not have any signs of AI making it.

      Because it was already bad hahahaha. People is now calling AI slop anything that is not good but don’t entirely know why.

        I get it in a way but they do literally 0 work to check. Like the main argument they made for this image is the hands. They look fine.

          The hands do not look fine in the OP. Albert’s left hand has three fingers in it. I understand now that it’s the compression but don’t pretend like it’s completely inane to suspect shenanigans.

            OP being the piss meme or the one I linked? Bcause Albert’s hand is doing this

            Edit: I see you already noticed it in the other reply. Disregard this

              Nah, yeah, it’s obvious when you know what you’re looking for. The thing is that, because of the bad compression, both ring finger and pinky are barely visible in the picture posted in the OP here and read more like highlights on his palm. I am angry at myself too for jumping to conclusions, it’s not okay. I do pride myself in checking thoroughly first because I’d hate to accuse a fellow artist wrongly. But it was only a matter of time and the real blame lies with AI bros for making everybody overly suspicious.

              (The upside, I like to say, is that I look at pictures a lot more closely these days)

              Anyway, thank you for setting things right.

    You’d think people who use AI to generate images would know by now to at least check the fingers.

    Edit: alright, this time it was the pixels. I apologise.

          Yeah sure. But even this has 2 sources you can check (in case you don’t believe it) and there is literally no reason to falsify info on what you have without any check at all claimed to be AI generated imagery.

          I believe in such a trivial case the source citation really is not necessary. It’s a god damn meme image.

      We better start choosing our fights or calling slop will become the new “it’s photoshop, I see it in the pixels” from 15 years ago.

      Since this thing is here to stay I’m starting to judge this stuff as it were made by someone with technical talent, they’re still very bad but for a whole lot of new reasons.

      Nope, phosphorous was the very first atomic element discovered, by boiling and refining human urine into a powder.

      Not everything is AI slop, try doing some research on the origins of the periodic table of elements.

          Practically every meme is based on a silly image from wherever. It’s the words that really count.

            But this isn’t based on a silly image. This is just facts overlayed on a slop image that doesn’t add anything meaningful. You can’t just throw random ingredients together and make something good. This whole “meme” is low effort slop.

              Practically all background meme images are some random garbage, well before the AI slop era. Meme images were generated by human slop Photoshop before AI was the big thing, so what really matters?

              Not the background image, but the words posted on top of the image. And the words on OP’s meme are just as valid, even if you posted the same words on a Spongebob Squarepants meme image.

                  So, by these sort of meme definitions, basically 90% of memes are diarrhea, sitting on the Drake meme, the Geordi LaForge meme, a Spongebob meme, the 5 year old girl standing in front of the burning house with the sinister look meme…

                  Fuck, by these strict standards on what a meme is supposed to be, well I guess basically all memes must be garbage to you folks. You must be really fun at parties…

                  Sad you can’t even get 3 seconds of a sad chuckle and just move on…
