    It honestly would’ve been funnier if you had just crudely pasted their heads onto two fighting kids.

    People have forgotten the simple pleasure of a “shit post.”

      Alright nevermind that previous question. Unless Bruce was suffering from severe tophaceous gout at an early age, this is most likely ai.

      Is this ai? I’m genuinely questioning it cause it looks so good. I know Bruce ain’t doing shit recently, but this could’ve been a behind the scenes goof.

        AI has gotten worryingly convincing in the past few months

        What made this one obvious is that lego boxes have more on them than in the image, there should be more text

        Some images of real lego boxes

        These are the top 3 of the image search results that show boxes:

          I looked it up; Lego boxes in 1988 didn’t actually have much more on them - specifically the upper left corner usually has a diagonal yellow stripe that says “Legoland” and that’s it.

          Also the side of the box actually had recognizably similar art as the front, not a mess or something totally randomly different.

          I think this might actually be a Photoshop job.

    That’s pretty clever. Let others argue about whether it’s an Xmas movie. This pic rocks.

        No one’s demanding people commission their memes. A sloppy, amateur 'Shop job would be infinitely more interesting.

        Love the argument, it’s basically the same logic people use against prolifers. I don’t think people are willing to admit nobody would have, and the entities that could have are the ones that could legally be targeted for this as well. The moment money begins trading hands directly makes people liable.

        My only problem with AI slop is that it should clearly be identified as AI slop and that it should be banned if it doesn’t.

      Don’t listen to em dude. This place loves to crap on everything.

      They’ll do everything in service of leftist ideal, my ideals, except anything meaningful like engage the other side. This be a circlejerk my friend.

        I’m about to leave this place. If you’re not a trans, autist, ADHD, leftist, lonely, and utter social failure, this place is a negative pain in the ass.

          What a loss, an AI bro leaves. It’s like when a scammer fails to get money for fake returns at a Walmart and threatens to never shop there again.

          Hey I’m several of those, ADHD and leftist, but not a social failure. In fact I’m doing quite well for myself and happiest I’ve been in years. That said this place is still a circlejerk so don’t blame you for leaving.

          Hope you find somewhere you feel you belong.

            I was on Imgur most of the day and the positivity is overwhelming vs. this toxic wasteland. Going to look into Bluesky next.

      People that downvote solely because “AI” are just as dumb as the people who think AI can be a substitute for people’s work.

      Idk what you want to hear… Someone had to put work into it and had some vision, they’d have to prompt most of the good detail (the patterned pajamas, some of the Lego set detail etc) it probably took a while to get right, but it still looks off and kinda weird and needs more iteration for such a complicated scene.

      It’s not much different than slightly better Photoshop at the end of the day, you get out what you put in. It’s not magic that’ll bring about a new chapter of humanity, it’s a very limited tool and garbage in still results in garbage out.

        It’s not much different than slightly better Photoshop at the end of the day.

        That’s exactly the problem all the data scraping, all the plagiarism, all the water and energy to make this, just to be what can be done in photoshop with a modicum of skill.

            Because you’re defending the person who kept prompting the water and energy wasting machine over and over to get the look how they wanted to instead of being moderately competent with photoshop. Just because someone put a lot of time and effort into refining a prompt doesn’t take away from the fact that prompting the water and energy wasting machine is wasting water and energy.

            It’s very “boys will be boys” coded.

            The entire problem is that llms are trillions of dollars dropped into a money pit, wasting water, pumping carbon into the air at a faster rate than ever to do exactly what a 14 year old with a cracked copy of Photoshop could do.

            Edit: adding some more

              Preface: anyone who’s really mad just read the last three sentences. I promise this goes somewhere.

              I think the Lemmy party line is a bit naive about AI. The issue isn’t the energy or the water, not inherently. It can be built and run just fine in ways that don’t waste all these resources. That said, the issue is that it isn’t and the reason is unrelated to the tech itself, it’s because a small number of people, who also don’t understand it at all, are locked in a winner-take-all death race to create a worker exploitation machine. “AI” isn’t intelligent but it’s a very powerful set of algorithms that we need to understand and maintain some level of control over within the working class. People need to know what it is and isn’t capable of and probably want to be proficient at using it. It’s not brilliant and going to replace everyone tomorrow but it’s also not always a worthless slop factory, it’s a secret third thing that we’re still working to understand the potential of.

              Lemmy likes to hate AI blindly and everyone is mostly justified in that feeling but it needs to be directed productively if we’re not going to just play into the hands of the people we’re at war with. The luddites lost the last war by way of the wealthy redefining what they stood for to turn society against them in the long run. They weren’t anti technology idiots, they were anti exploitation organizers, wildly ahead of their time. To just write off AI entirely is to fall into the former camp. To seek to understand and control it for the working class is to fall into the latter I think.

                I broadly agree with your analysis, the luddite comparison is apt and I think you’ll find that quite a few people on here do in fact understand they were anti exploitation, not anti tech. And yeah the root problem of all this can be boiled down to “capitalism requires profit at all costs” but I’m so frustrated with the absolutely correct answer being “because capitalism” but with no real actionable plan at the present moment to actually mitigate the harm beyond, “end capitalism and share resources fairly”

                I don’t think lemmy users are necessarily naive, I think that most of us are tired of everything collapsing around us and are looking for literally anything that can give us even some modicum of relief from the horrors.

                I also don’t hate AI because it’s new technology, hell I found a lot of the early experiments by people online into neural networks and training them. I enjoyed the CaryKH and Jabrils and CodeBullet videos building small neural networks to race cars around a track or play flappy bird or get massive high scores in tetris and 3Blue1Brown and Numberphile and Computerphole videos breaking down how the math and computer science theory worked. I hate that it’s only use has been to flood the internet with randomly generated garbage at best, and is now just a tool of mass misinformation on a scale unprecedented in a time of economic instability in a deeply divided world where there are dozens of countries with enough nuclear warheads to end the planet 30 times over.

                Unfortunately we can’t wait for that secret third thing to reveal itself. We can’t sit around hoping that letting the capitalists run rampant will bring us that secret third thing before our air becomes unbreathable, our climate is inhospitable, and our lakes and rivers and aquifers are tainted with toxic chemicals and heavy metals.
