These AI comics are terrible.

    Same one was in political memes yesterday.

    Brace for impact, the model that produces these came out only very recent.

    They're getting better, AI content that emulates a drawn or painted piece of artwork isn't immediately obvious that it's AI.

    Eh, it's fine for generating low quality shitposts.

    I’d go as far as ai is completely fine tool to create art with.

    What bothers me is that these are unlabeled oneshots, the model does not allow creative user input nor a direct prompt and the user posted it without disclaimer.

    Here on shitposts thats sort of ok but i saw this one elsewhere first.

    Please don't call AI slop "art".

    Please don’t call all of ai “slop”

    Artists have been experimenting with technology long before cheap image models came along.

    I saw a famous youtube guy talking about "AI slop garbage."

    He was mad because he had bought AI-generated music to use in the background of one of his videos, and he wound up getting a copyright strike for it. He knew it was AI at the time he bought it. It didn't occur to him that admitting this was a self-own. (If it's garbage, why did you pay for it, and why would you put it on your own video?)

    He then went on to claim what a big problem AI music is because someone can sell him AI stock music and then get Content ID on it, thereby causing him to get a strike. It apparently didn't occur to him that anybody can produce stock music with a synthesizer and zero AI at all, and do exactly the same thing.

    The thumbnail read something like "Copyright claimed by Suno AI." Suno had not done any such thing.

    Despite the video being thoroughly self-contradictory, the comment section was full of supportive words by people who evidently copy their opinions uncritically from whatever people are saying on Twitter and Reddit. When you see someone typing "ai slop" in the form of issuing a judgment about something, what you are seeing is just that, an opinion copied uncritically from others, and never examined.

    Youtube is full of videos like this. They're basically breakfast cereal for people who are incapable of thinking more than one layer deep into anything, and are therefore unable to understand ANYTHING other than optics.

    Yeah, I'm a pretty big AI sceptic myself (as in, its usefulness has been way overhyped), but anyone that goes "AI, therefore not funny" needs to lighten up.

    If it's funny, it's funny

    Could AI comics ever become undistinguishable to real comics? Even though its becoming harder to tell, will it ever be able to get the text consistent?

    It makes perfect sense if you've read At The Mountains of Madness.

    It's a direct reference to At The Mountains of Madness. The penguins make exactly that call in the book and are friendly with the Ancient Ones, and really only present in the story while the humans are in the domain of the Ancient Ones.

    Although the choice of showing Cthulhu in the final panel rather than one of the Ancient Ones is inaccurate. Perhaps it's meant to be a sculpture, since in Call of Cthulhu it was made clear that Cthulhu was specifically the shaman of the ancient ones, meant to wake them when the time is right

    Anyways I'd highly recommend reading the stories since they're quite a unique style and dripping with a mounting, growing intensity. You can even listen on LibriVox. Call of Cthulhu is about an hour long and At The Mountains of Madness is about 4.5 hours long, so one decent car trip's worth of audiobook basically

    Old man Vanderhaus down by the docks, he says he has it on good authority that this has happened already. He says this is how we all got here in the first place.

    At first I thought to myself, I said self, what if the deep ones are in cahoots with the government. With the more I look and the more they do, I thinks to myself that they's just caught a glimpse of the madness. This was just the opportunity they's needed ta get an edge on every man, woman, and child. They being the great old-ones of course.

    Some say d'eys an erie glow down in the national harbor. You can only see it from the plains coming in over the Potomac. There's an old quarry used to be there, She goes down deep. Got swallowed by the river back when the Indians were still running the roost. Some say it's not a quarry at all and that it leads into the innerds of that world itself.
