🐽🐽🐽🐽 Oink oink! Slop slop slop! Slop slopping down my sloppy throat!

[–] Rhaedas@fedia.io 6 points 2 weeks ago

But maybe not AI. AI goes off training of real photos and would have variation in the surfaces, while someone doing this in Blender would be lazy and use the same texturing for all.

[–] Chozo@fedia.io 5 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

This word is losing meaning the more it's used for things that aren't even AI.

[–] entropicdrift@lemmy.sdf.org 30 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Slop as a slang term is far older than its present use to primarily describe the output of AI, see Merriam Webster's definition 4-C for the second noun meaning of the word:

a product of little or no value : rubbish

watching the usual slop on TV

[–] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 14 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Analog slop is still slop.

Rude thing to say about something somebody took the time and made, IMO. Especially considering that there's literally nothing wrong with the images we're even talking about. The pictures are just fine.

This is reminding me of people being critical of artists for using Photoshop.

[–] 3abas@lemmy.world 10 points 2 weeks ago

You knew, sometimes the most skilled artists can still produce shit, and you're entitled to not enjoy every piece regardless of its technical quality.

I'm not talking about the OP image, I'm talking about boardroom driven, focus tested "entertainment products" that have about as much in common with art as "food products" do with nutrition.

[–] 4am@lemmy.zip -1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

This different between AI and Photoshop is that Photoshop takes time and skill; you need creativity.

[–] Chozo@fedia.io 3 points 2 weeks ago

Sure. But this doesn't look like AI in the first place. It looks more like a Maya render, if anything.

[–] Chozo@fedia.io 22 points 2 weeks ago

Engagement bait. YouTube's algorithm loves it when viewers do things like leave comments or likes. And responding to polls like this counts toward that engagement metric, no matter how shallow the content is.

Why is it yellow on the inside?!

[–] jordanlund@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

I think that's just a decorative carving on the rind.

[–] Goretantath@lemmy.world 21 points 2 weeks ago

Three vertical dots "dont reccomend to me from this channel."

[–] MonkderVierte@lemmy.zip 9 points 2 weeks ago

Pretty sure this is apple shaped and not real shaped.

[–] abfarid@startrek.website 5 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Cube*.
Triangular prism*.

How do we really know that an apple is only in 3 dimensions and isn't actually an Nth dimensional object?

I started writing this as a joke but now I seriously am wondering how you could imperically prove that any 3D object is not just a 4th or 5th or whatever dimensional object... 🤔

Would you be able to feel the difference between a tesseract and a cube if you held one?

[–] Korne127@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

It looks strangely satisfying
