What...IS that shit?
Like actually? Early image models were given open ended prompts so they would just generate images based on the frequency of topics and traffic on the internet. Turns out if aliens saw our culture they would assume that some of our most important things are Jesus and crustaceans. Zuck's dementia-ward demographic were mostly responding to any picture with a Jesus in it, though.
But that was before generative ai found out that humans go absolutely ape-shit for neonatal face features
I was more meaning the psychology of...having any reaction to it other than "what the nasal fuck is this?"
Oh my bad. Yeah just demented old people man. They do be liking stuff with Jesus in it probably because it's one of the last things their brain still holds on to
