My wife wanted to join the trend but chatgpt was like:

I wasn't able to generate the image because the request didn't follow our content policy. Let me know if you'd like me to adjust the request or create something different!

It ain't HentaiGPT.

Yeah, it is through OpenAI.

They made a Ghibli filter trying to get more people to buy their tokens.

I have zero issues with what I consider nothing more than a glorified filter.

However, fuck Altman and OpenAI. I'm not giving them.a single fucking penny.

The only bell Ghibli rings is as a car model Maserati makes.

In this case it'll be referring to the Japanese animation studio famous for Spirited Away, Kiki's Delivery Service, Nausicaa, and so on

... Not one of the most famous and talented animation studios on Earth?

I was leery of AI early on, but people told me it has tons of good potential uses. Sure, it seems to help search results, but almost every other time I hear about AI, it’s for negative reasons.

We've had ai for decades and it has infinite uses, finding cancer, observing space, math, doing corporate busywork, etc. the generative ai we have now is only good for hurting artists and culture.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

I imagine half the people using generative ai for memes wouldn’t have been able to even get online in the 90’s since you had to shop for a modem, install it in an ISA slot (yes, open the scary computer box), determine compatible IRQ settings and reflect them in BIOS, hardware jumper, and software, find (or sign up for) a valid BBS / internet service, set the proper software protocol, and troubleshoot why it didn’t work the first time. I almost wish my computer made modem connecting sounds when downloading a file. Yes, this is my “walked uphill to school” story. :)

I like how the shot lines up with both of them

I feel out of touch. I have no idea what ghibli is. Does this mean im old now

[–] [email protected] 28 points 1 week ago (1 children)

You've never heard of Studio Ghibli, makers of famous animated movies such as "Princess Mononoke" or "Spirited Away" ?

If that's the case, you have either been old for 30 years or you are actually too young.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Studio_Ghibli You've probably heard of some of these, and if not, I would recommend checking them out!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

Yeah I would like to check their stuff out! Ill have to see where I can watch some of their stuff. But the name is vaguely familiar. So maybe I have seen some and just don’t realize it

"Aw man, some person used an AI filter to quickly make a cute picture of themselves as a couple! Guess they should ride the sewer slide. Anybody who uses any AI whatsoever should krill themselves, otherwise there will be exactly zero human beings that still prefer art made with human hands, expertise and creativity!" ~ Dipshits all over social media

FFS, they're not taking your job, they used an AI on their own photo to do a cute thing that they're not going to sell. If you're a good artist, you WILL find work. I make art for a living myself (and am paid quite well for it), and on occasion I use AI tools to make my workflow more efficient while still doing most of the difficult bits (such as, idk, CREATIVITY) myself. This all-or-nothing approach the internet has to AI in art is unbelievably annoying and pretentious, and reeks of that classic armchair critic stench. God, people sure do like to post extremely dumb shit to make themselves feel better, even up to and including stuff that essentially amounts to saying "kys" in response to someone using a glorified Snapchat filter.

My one complaint in your comment is the "if you're a good artist you'll find work", it's simply not true.

I'm a shit artist (im an untrained outsider slapping paint on surfaces to vaguely resemble what my clients ask for) and I find work, yet none of my friends who are legitimately talented are finding anything.

OK, I wouldn't care what people use but I draw line at when people Ghiblify their image like it's normal because Miyazaki literally said "I strongly feel that this is an insult to life itself.". This trend is like Fuck Your entire life to make such art womp womp I can just use AI replicate your work.

Hey dude, quick question: Why can't you type the word "kill"

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago

It's against his terms of service

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

because corpo social media sites have trained everyone to self-censor random shit in stupid ways because the internet is for prudes and infants now.
