    Lemmy users seem to overwhelmingly despise AI slop, which makes me wonder why my more communities don’t have rules against it. I would love to be able to report it and have it removed.

      A lot of mods probably think it goes without saying. A lot of mods maybe have the mentality of not adding too many rules until something becomes a problem. A noticeable minority of mods just don’t care about ai.

        I saw someone here get hassled about AI slop for posting over sharpened screen shots of Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

        I would think that it would only apply to AI generated images, but I suppose it would depend on the community. In this comm in particular in which all the posts are images it shouldn’t be too tricky to define. As the technology advances it might eventually be impossible to spot them, though…

          LLM generated content in general; images, comments, etc.

              No. LLMs are still what generates images.

                Large Language Models generate human-like text. They operate on words broken up as tokens and predict the next one in a sequence. Image Diffusion models take a static image of noise and iteratively denoise it into a stable image.

                The confusion comes from services like OpenAI that take your prompt, dress it up all fancy, and then feed it to a diffusion model.

                You can’t use LLMs to generate images.

                That is a completely different beast with their own training set.

                Just because both are made by machine learning, doesn’t mean they are the same.

      I think it would be better to have rules against very low effort or unsourced/potentially misleading content, not all possible uses of AI are necessarily “slop” and the witch hunting of even non-AI stuff can get pretty bad.

      The main problem is defining it.

      The second is that moderation for details like that gets complex.

      If it bothers you enough, you can still report it even if there’s not a set rule. Enough people do that and it will be clear a rule or more enforcement is needed. Doesn’t change the points above, it’s not as easy as it was only a few years ago.

          Already is I think. The term “AI slop” is thrown around so much that sometimes it seems to be used to mean “I don’t like this” and not anything AI related.

          The important difference being that there’s a lot of witches in this witch hunt, unlike the historical context which spawned the phrase.

      It’s akin to a religion here. Of course no one wants to read an AI generated article because it’s low quality and unreliable, but if someone uses an AI generated image to convey something, the bitching is more axe grinding than meaningful. The same people that plug some text in a meme generator criticize any AI image. It’s utility is pretty limited imo, but no usage here will ever be judged by its utility, only by if the cultural code is ahered to or not.

        What are they trying to convey that can’t be done by either word or meme? What is at stake for not using existing meme or creating one using screenshot of media? Why must it be generated and wasting immense power and encourage more datacenter to be build and purposefully used for AI to the detriment of people living near one?

          I dunno man. Are you trying to say it’s wasteful and unnecessary? Far from the only thing in this world that is. Go ahead and throw the first stone if you live without any waste or frivolity. Nothing short of organized religion is this fricken judgmental.

            Yes. Modern society is wasteful doesn’t mean we have to add another one. Go and tell the court that you should be able to lie because everyone lie once in a while, see how it stand.

              So existing wastefulness is ok but not novel wastefulness?

              You can make as many paper thin arguments as you’d like, but it’s just pious righteousness and nothing more.

                Are you really not aware that there’s tons of campaigns trying to cut back existing waste or are you really that dense? What so “novel” about image generation?

          It isn’t in most cases. But it is definitely the case with Linux, Communism, anti-car, and especially anti-AI, at least here on Lemmy.

    Here, in this community? You can help by reporting suspicious image posts and I’ll remove them. Personally I have a hard time to identify AI images if they aren’t based on real photographies.

    I’ve never felt more seen in a painting than that guy on the right.

    Something about his mildly nervous irritation at something off screen paired with his wild yet dignified look as he puffs thoughtfully on his narcotics, unconsciously both ignoring and vibing off his drinking partners’ deflated energy.

    He simply exists in a parallel world right next to her, and I guess that’s all one can hope for in life. If that’s not true companionship, I don’t know what is

        I don’t sense hostility, just indifference. To me it’s like he’s waiting for his friends to arrive and she cannot be arsed to feign a good time with them because she’s the designated driver.

        Him: “They’re a fun bunch. And you and Stefan’s wife get along well, don’t you”
        Her: “Sure… sure…”

          I thought her hand was empty. I feel like what looks like the pen is just the spoon/stick in the glass actually showing correct refraction through the liquid and glass. The cross eye is hysterical.

            Her hand is positioned as if she’s holding a pen and it looks like there’s a tip there to me. You never know with AI slop.
