I am still stuck in “2014”, which is where I was back in 1995.
But then again, I never became obscenely wealthy by grossly parasitizing off of the labour of other people, so I never had the chance to devolve and become corrupted by capitalism.
Rich billionaire assholes are ruining every industry. It’s not just the tech sector.
I’m so sick of seeing this exact fucking face and facial expression on everything. please just use ms paint to shoddily squiggle a matchstick man, at least it will have personality.
Beware the AI slop Pipeline
Why is pipeline being used for everything now? This is progression. Not pipeline.
Devil’s advocate here, it could be metaphorically, pipeline implies that it is an unavoidable sequence, rather than a progression, which it is.
edit, I agree with the below that it is more of a replacement
I like the other one better.
Hardstuck 2014. I’m not changing
It’s not a pipeline. 2018 and 2025 guys either had 2014 guy killed or they ruined his life and forced him into suicide.
yes, different levels of maturity of the technology attract different profiles.
Gutenberg wanted to spread the word, Murdoch is in the hate business
never forget Aaron Swartz
he was murdered though, it wasn’t suicide
The suit infestation of tech
Yup, I very much doubt more than a handful of c-level people at the big tech companies went through these phases. The change is a result of money people who dont give a damn about technology getting a tighter and tighter grip over tech companies and pushing out the people who do care.
They’re called MBAs and they’re a cancer on society.
I have a very very real problem with this oversimplification of very distinct tech viewpoints.
Like, what, you dont think information should be freely available? You LIKE the model where information is locked down with hefty fees? Because that’s what the actual “tech bros” want.
This is at best ignorant and at worst just hateful.
Also the timeline should ne more like 1990 : Information wants to be free
Bill Gates: No
Etc.
i’d say both ignorant and hateful
People like 2025 guy have never held thoughts like the other 2, they were always self serving cunts. They just kept a facade till they depended on others, but once they joined the rich fucks club, they dropped the facade.
TIL there were no tech bros before 2014.
I’m going in the opposite direction.
I’m recognizing how much we’ve been herded like sheep just to make rich people richer, and I’m fighting back in the ways that I can.
Yay I love AI slop, keep feeeding me AI slop I fucking love it, I fucking love AI shit memes, they are definitivelt not obviously AI, and definitively not slop
How can you tell it’s AI generated? This is a real question because I legitimately have trouble recognizing AI that doesn’t have egregious issues like mangled fingers, and unfortunately I think recognizing AI content is going to be a survival skill in the next decade.
The fun thing is, old AI slop helps new AI slop look more believable. The main tells is line work and fonts. Chat GPT has a very distinct art style, with a lot of soft lines and generic fonts. It’s also extremely consistent. You could look up a dedicated sub for Chat GPT memes to get a feel for it. Then you’ll start to loathe it.
The artstyle. I have learned (through experencie, more than through actual research) what artstyles AI uses, but I can’t point out exactly what are their characteristics, they just give me a special type of uncanny valley vibes. In this one, the eyes are what stand out the most because I do remember more memes with that type of eyes, but I think I have also seen these face shapes in other AI memes.
Edit: The two people who hate me for not liking AI, make yourselves seen, I’m aware of your downvoting in comments!
Talk about a self-fulfilling prophecy.
You think you can identify AI because you only take into consideration the AI that you’re able to identify.
Every time you get tricked into thinking AI is an actual person, you don’t realize it so you don’t factor it in.
I swear, a lot of the AI hate these days really outs how ignorant people are about the world they live and how illogically they go about obtaining or verifying information.

Well, yeah, when I said I learned the artstyles that it uses, I meant the low quality, barely polished ones that most people use to make AI slop.

The hate is because people will not only post slop, but it will be mass-produced slop because they have to spend ZERO time and effort on it so across different people the artstyle will be similar and, therefore, predictable.

done
cool, i’ll delete my comment
I wonder how somebody can completely miss their own message like this. Or maybe somebody made an original image and then a techbro made this AI slop as a duplicate to spite them.
I need it. I’ll pay for it even!!
To be fair, you’ve been getting fed ‘human slop’ for years without having an issue. See: Marvel movies
Why complain when it’s a machine producing it instead?
Here’s my complaint about a machine producing it:
- Water Cost 1
- Water Cost 2, it has a nice Frutiger Aero image
- Water Cost 3
- Water Cost 4
- Systemic Risk to the Tech Industry
- Bad Business
You can also take a look at the articles of c/FuckAI if you want.
“People enjoy things I don’t like, therefore industrialized plagiarism and environmental homicide are ok”
Copyright and patent laws should die, so I don’t care about plagiarism.
It’s the same as saying “he stole my idea!” like a petulant child.
Great, so you’re an asshole who enjoys stealing. Go fuck yourself, we’re done talking. I also like how you didn’t even address the environmental damage, but I guess you also love destroying mother Earth as well.
🥱
Always funny seeing people get mad at me because I refuse to be ripped off.
I agree with Jomega.
Stealing is wrong. 200 billion dollar corporations like Disney worked very hard to change copyright laws. We need to respect these billion dollar corporations creating rules solely to benefit themselves.
Copyright laws exist to prevent confusion in the marketplace. What you want is to reform copyright laws, not abolish them.
It’s cute that you think you can reform copyright to suit your needs. Billion dollar corporations like Disney have more money than you and everyone you know. They will make the law whatever the fuck they want it to be.
Copyright laws exist to protect the entrenched interests of the rich. It should be abolished, but the useful idiots and the rich would never allow it.
Except I have never watched Marvel movies. Talk about making asumptions.
It was just an example.
And still, what I have seen of Marvel movies (specially complaints about excessive CGI) are still more decent than the average AI meme. They just aren’t living up to the expectations Marvel had craved for itself with previous, good movies.
Oh I am still at the 2014 phase.
We… used to have a term for people that advanced further: sell-outs.
Though I do very much prefer the recently popularized Cyberpunk lingo:
Fucking Corpo Scum.
Fuck corporats
It’s funny ever since Cyberpunk I can no longer pronunciate that word as it should be, instead it will always come out as corpo rats.
exactly as it should be pronounced 😁
