    I couldn’t figure out the limb positions on the stripper, and the more I looked, the more obvious this is AI. Funny idea, too bad it’s generated slop.

      Sorry, not trying to troll, but in this case why does it matter that it’s AI? It doesn’t break the community rules.

      I know Lemmy isn’t a fan of AI, but IMO it’s still pretty funny, regardless of the medium.

      E: typo

        Oh you’re right, it’s not against the rules and I haven’t reported it or anything. There’s a whole discussion that could be had about the many issues of AI, but with this specific example, my main ick is the authenticity of the joke and the implications for misinformation.

        The image could have been a comic version of the same “strip joint skeleton Halloween decoration” and still been funny, but the idea of someone actually putting in the effort to build it in their yard adds to the humor. For me, the generation is almost good enough to look real at a quick glance, but the sense of something being off and subsequent realization that I’ve been “fooled” into thinking it was a real photo kills that humor and leaves a sour feeling.

        It also concerns me that as AI image generation gets better, the easy tells become harder and harder to spot. This picture is harmless, but imagine the potential damage of a better fake image of a more scandalous topic.

          If this was a poorly drawn Paint illustration it probably wouldn’t have been as funny or recognizable. AI is fast, easy, and good enough. This is just a meme most people will forget about in literally 1 minute, IMO there is nothing wrong with using AI like this

        we quadrupled the available storage space, mostly because we were able to pack much more densely, by putting a few of those customizable wire racks you could get for 40 bucks at the big box store in our garage. probly more expensive now. could probably fit all that on two racks if you pack them right.
