I can’t even figure out what I’ve noticed about these things, and it pisses me off that it rings a false positive whenever I read newspaper comics

[–] orbituary@lemmy.dbzer0.com 96 points 1 week ago (4 children)

Line weight. The round eyes. The color. The exact same smile. Same angles to the viewer. 45 or direct... There are so many telltale signs.

There’s also no door on the bus

[–] Sergio@lemmy.world 20 points 1 week ago

it's a trap! They throw you in the bus and weld the door shut! #theGulagIsTheBus

[–] orbituary@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 1 week ago

Sure. That's an AI mistake. I was naming general thematic and design attributes, but composition and content also inform the aware viewer.

[–] joyjoy@lemmy.zip 18 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

When everyone starts using the same style, it's either everyone's hiring the same artist (unlikely) or they used AI.

[–] BlameTheAntifa@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago

There is a mathematic perfection that our brains easily recognize even if we can’t articulate it. The human brain is unmatched at the task of visual pattern recognition.

Honestly the silver lining with all this is how innately obvious it is what it is currently.

Literally just reeks of the same level of effort as someone making a meme out of clipart or one of those boomers that uses that fancy Facebook status feature.

If you need to generate a hero image to make your witty tweet good enough to share, maybe go back to the drawing board

[–] sunbrrnslapper@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago (4 children)

I'm old. Help me not fall victim to AI slop again. How could you tell it was AI?

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 39 points 1 week ago (1 children)

it's the exact same style used in almost all ai slop comics lately. you can tell by face alone; it's almost identical in all of them, even with different features (like facial hair).

[–] sunbrrnslapper@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago (4 children)

So these are 2 images I asked AI for, which are admittedly terrible. But beyond that, I'm unsure of the distinguishing features that pegs it as AI. Any guidance (other than never make these images again - for obvious reasons)?

no, I don't know what you used but this is not what I'm talking about. you can find inconsistencies, colors that don't make sense, a whole set of issues but that's AI in general.

what I'm talking about a very specific style that vaguely apes the ligne claire style of comics, adding an old paper filter and completely lacking soul. they can have zero "errors" and still be recognizable because they are so exact and eerily similar in their style. there's a difference between a person drawing in a particular style and a machine emulating it.

You can see these comics on Lemmy from time to time, although it might be getting less common since it gets negative comments every time. I'm pretty sure they come from one particular comic generator. or possibly multiple that use the same underlying model.

They have the same soulless faces, usually very limited and recognizable facial expressions. i recently saw one with dinosaurs and even they had the exact facial expressions that I've seen in other AI slop comics. they also have the same faux lettering font for text.

It seems to spit this out whenever you ask for comic style. I couldn't tell you exactly what it is.

[–] Edge004@lemmy.zip 9 points 1 week ago

The colors in a lot of AI images are very yellow

[–] Rinn@awful.systems 8 points 1 week ago

In this case:

  • this comic artstyle is very characteristic of AI, down to the line weight, facial expression (these soulless eyes and smile), and how the character is positioned;
  • the bus has no door;
  • the picture has a yellow-ish tint, which has been plaguing certain AI image generators ever since the AI Ghibli trend. They likely overtrained their slop machines on Studio Ghibli works and various other "cozy" artstyles/pictures.

ChatGPT-generated images are getting yellower by the day LOL

[–] skisnow@lemmy.ca 57 points 1 week ago (2 children)

What’s crazy is I instantly clocked it as AI slop just from the thumbnail, and I’m not even wearing my glasses.

[–] Tigeroovy@lemmy.ca 16 points 1 week ago

It just all has a kind of bland sameyness to it all that once you see it you can spot it immediately in subsequent images.

Can someone please get that slop outta my face?

[–] Tigeroovy@lemmy.ca 53 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I'm not even going to look at it, I can tell it's ai slop from the thumbnail.

[–] LogicalDrivel@sopuli.xyz 14 points 1 week ago (5 children)

I don't even know what it is. Ive stared at it for at least a solid two minutes looking for errors. It screams AI to me but I cant find that detail that proves it. I hate that this is what sharing pictures online has become. Scrutinizing every little detail to see if I should care or not.

If you insist on posting Ai slop outside of the dedicated Ai communities please at least tag it so people can filter Ai slop out.

We will, however, throw you into an El Salvadorian gulag with due process!

This makes it sound like sending you to concentration camps with due process is fair game lol

Not to take away from my neighbor Canadia or anything but in fact in every country except the U.S. and El Salvador you can enjoy the benefit of not being thrown in a Salvadoran gulag, try harder Canadia

I always respected that Canada is open to almost everyone...

Except if you have a DUI

I knew a lady that was a Canadian citizen but lived and worked in Seattle. She got a DUI in the US and they won't let her go back into Canada until she completes the long and expensive process that they require for DUI offenders.

[–] takeda@lemmy.dbzer0.com 33 points 1 week ago (5 children)

I dunno, DUI is serious, you could kill someone. Maybe it is a long and expensive process to make sure people will remember it and not drive while being drunk?

[–] thisbenzingring@lemmy.sdf.org 10 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I always figured it was a good line in the sand telling some Americans, they are not welcome

drunk driving is serious and I respect that they treat it as such

[–] DudeImMacGyver@kbin.earth 10 points 1 week ago (11 children)

Looking at their rules for it, it actually seems kinda fucked: One bad choice years ago bars you for life unless you are wealthy enough to go through their process and hire lawyers, it's a even crime to try and enter, but that is definitely not a widely known fact, so even though someone might have paid their dues and even been completely sober for years, they're still fucked unless they're well off.

I get wanting to protect people and stop dangerous driving but effectively banning someone for life if they made a mistake and happen to be poor seems a bit unfair. You can bet your ass rich people have all sorts of ways around this that completely circumvent the system anyhow on top of all that.

As usual, it's another regulation that disproportionately affects poor people who are unable to afford proper legal representation to begin with (and are more likely to be falsely convicted of a DUI in the first place).

That's ridiculous. You can deny someone a driving licence, but you can't deny them entry to the country they're a citizen of.
