Amazing, so you just prompt the exact explanation of a joke and AI can generate it?! How convenient and easy to understand! Thanks!
When people ask me why AI generated memes are creatively bankrupt, this post is what I'm gonna show them.
Isn't low effort AI memes like the pinnacle of shitposting? All the stupid stuff noone could be arsed to make before is now a couple of clicks away
Anyways here's an all-natural, organically grown, locally sourced shitpost, just for you:
I still think that "traditional" shitposting has a creative process to it.
Traditional:
Think of shitpost
Photoshop shitpost
Profit
With AI:
Think of shitpost
Generate shitpost image
Profit
Why not cut the middle man and just post the prompt?
A man with an exaggerated laughing-crying emoji pasted over his head, a bunch of 👌's pasted everywhere, and then deepfried
I don't want to go through a middle man so please make that in photoshop, and then look at it
Wow, yeah, not doing any work whatsoever is so much better, i'm sure that'll take off
About as much creativity on display as feeding the prompt to an AI. Be cynical as much as you want: even shitpost enjoyers get bored if you're not creative.
That's why i'm not making shitposts
Aren't you being cynical, that people aren't capable of a shred of creativity if they use AI to make posts?
If i had made my idea above and posted it, it would (and should) get downvoted and fade away into obscurity, regardless of whether i used AI or photoshop to make it
I've yet to see an AI generated meme that had any creative merit bigger than what I described. Just look at the original post! That's exactly what I'm talking about.
People think of something that could be funny, if they did the legwork and put some creative effort into it. But then, they simply ask the AI to do the hard part and post it.
