      I mean I write crap like this in Suno making fun of anime titles: That time that I got slimed on while being a magic girl who was No Longer Allowed In Another World while trying to sip slime after being reincarnated by a double wide surprise climbing the tower of god. At this point it’s not slop, it’s sharing a brain cell with my cat.

          lol I don’t know but that was the first thing I thought of, making ridiculous songs. But realistically it’s probably about the not talked connections. I’m sure it’s bigger than anyone can imagine, and no one really wants to be in a briefcase.

        Not if generating it used the water of a years use of a small country

          Reminder if you say shit like this, but aren’t a vegan/vegetarian too, then you don’t actually give a shit about water usage, you’re just jumping on the bandwagon because it’s cool to hate AI.

          There’s ample reason to shit on AI, but generating a slop meme like this locally uses less resources than a gaming session.

          Also as a side note, this particular image looks like a mix of AI and regular editing.

            It’s insaine to think that the amount of water used during a gaming session is comparable to generating a single image. Slop is a scurge on the Earth.

              It’s not comparable at all actually. A single image takes a few seconds to generate. So equivalent to a few seconds of gaming (ofc depends on the ai model and the game you’re comparing)

                A single slop AI meme take about the same power as gaming on a ps5 for 4 minutes.

                Truly disgusting amount of power going into slop.

                  Do you think people would take you seriously if you complained about their 2 hour long gaming session or how they microwaved a burrito for 2 minutes and a half?

                  I don’t use image gen much, just mockups here and there and the occasional memes. But no one plays only 4 minutes on their ps5. The disconnect is intense. And mind you, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with spending 12 hours gaming on your day off, it’s the constant bitching about AI as if it was the first piece of technology that uses energy.

                    Of course no one plays for just 4 minutes and no one suggested that. You can generate dozens of images in 4 minutes…which means it’s a much higher use of energy for so little return. We need new solar/wind/nuclear power to power our existing infrastructure…not create a new energy suck that cannot be satiated…for almost no return(talking slop generation)

                  (also there are AI image generators that take much less power)

                    I don’t see gaming needing to fuck hundreds of cities as it gobbles up more compute with data centers and suckung up any new renewable energy for shit slop. Anything gaming is guilty of, Slop is more guilty by orders of magnitude.
