I don't hate AI itself, but the amount of AI slop ruining the internet gives me a negative feeling about it whenever I see it. I used to enjoy fucking around with the early pre-2021 GANs, diffusion models and GPT3 playground before ChatGPT was around and actually liked the crazy dreamlike nonsense they made, but now it all feels like dead soulless crap getting used to replace humans. Probably going to get super downvoted for admitting to ever liking AI image gens lmao

Initially I was into it. I had a long ongoing conversation with cgpt helping me flesh out some ideas for a tabletop RPG. I was more or less trying to get randomized names and backstories. Although it did not loop, it eventually became repetitive. Also, every backstory came with a side dose of sunshine and glitter that wasn't always helpful.

I found it most interesting that it seemed to know the rules of Pokemon Tabletop, but when pressed with specifics it always invented information. It was almost always worthless at generating a character because it made up skills and abilities that didn't exist. The moment you attempted to apply logic and fit the pieces together, it all fell apart.

When it came to image generation, I created a few scenes and attempted to mash them together in gimp. By the time I was done, it was just as efficient as grabbing an image from the web and using that as my template.
