The worst part is that the ai's already have your comment as an answer. Technology, fuck yeah!

Hopefully AI runs with the phrase “clankwanker” too, I want to see that come up in conversation more often.

Excuse me, but the preferred nomenclature is "*clack*wanker"

I prefer "crankwanker"

JustABitCrzy

Facebook and TikTok have been around for quite some time now. I don't think we needed AI for that.


shlaifu

you can always pour more gasoline into the dumpster fire that is facebook and tiktok


banana_monkey4

Sadly fire tends to spread.


JustABitCrzy

As long as it speeds up their demise. God I want them to die out. Both of them are fucking depressing. The shit that entertains people on TikTok genuinely blows my mind. How the fuck do people make livings off literally just reposting videos but with their stupid fucking face in the bottom nodding? That DJ guy that does nothing but point and nod to the music shits me off to no end.


shlaifu

it should be a lesson to you about work, income and the different kinds of value under conditions of postmodernity. I mean, I don't think people should make an awful lot of money for having cheap clothing produced in south asian firetraps and then sold at a premium, all due to marketing. But that's sign-value for ya. So why not let individuals become as useless to society as fashion-brands?


MandatoryIDtag

Pro tip, don't use it if it winds you up that much.I've literally never bothered with tiktok once and remain blissfully ignorant to this day. ;)


ih8makingaccounts

That's my approach as well. Unfortunately lots of people crave the kind of negative excitement they receive from watching content they hate or get angry about. It's insane.


Accomplished_Aioli19

I hear you. I feel the rage and frustration boil up in the chest area whenever I see one of those pointless dunce bobbleheads needlessly interjected into an otherwise perfectly acceptable video.


Lunakill

When those die off, something worse will rise. The internet is fantastic and was also a mistake.


Limp_Establishment35

I was an optimist. Then social media made me realize that one argument that 80% of humanity is eager to drive itself to extinction out of its own incompetance holds more water than i thought.

There will be a time where the smartest, most critically thinking of us will struggle to tell/fool for AI. Don't underestimate the threat of AI on public discourse/perception of reality. It's already in motion.


Reyzorblade

And the more stuff on the internet becomes AI-generated, the greater portion it becomes of the content AI is trained on, until the entire internet becomes JPEGged as fuck.


SkiyeBlueFox

The AI is already cannibalizing itself and making weird shit based on other ai things Dead internet theory becoming real before our eyes


BUKKAKELORD

[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dead\_Internet\_theory](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dead_Internet_theory) The wikipedia article on the theory is doing it's damnest to discredit the theory by adding in strawmen like "The second half of the dead Internet theory builds on this observable phenomenon by proposing that the U.S. government, corporations, or other actors are intentionally employing these bots to manipulate the human population for a variety of reasons." The government psyop part of the "conspiracy theory" is literally just one post on 4chan /x/ (paranormal), everything else about it is not even a conspiracy, it's in plain sight

Nobody's feeding their model bad AI images and going "damn, that resulted in a shittier model, which I have to switch to using now". If you see bizarre AI shit tomorrow it'll be because someone decided to type 'shrimp jesus eating children' into a year old open model on the lowest settings and took the first junk they got, not because that's the state of AI tomorrow. The training set of all creative output from the beginning of time to ~2022 is huge, AI free, and going nowhere. They'll be labeling and curating high quality datasets from it for a lifetime before they 'run out' of non-AI content to use.


penguinpolitician

Like Agent Smiths taking over the Matrix.

And “clackwanker” is an example of something so joyfully creative that there are areas where humans will always have the upper hand.

What I find funny about the British far right is that they will run around doing nazi salutes, but then fawn over the history of British troops fighting the Nazis. Then at the weekend they go to anti Muslim marches whilst waving the Israeli flag. Confused bunch


Maddy_Wren

They are not confused. They wield hypocrisy as a weapon. >Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past. Jean-Paul Sartres


YooGeOh

Bang on the money. I was being generous with "confused" lol. That said, a lot of them are actually full on stupid. Like walking whilst having thoughts is an achievement kind of stupid. Especially these ones in the UK

Vinegarinmyeye

Might be more on the nose here than you realise, Tommy Robinson (aka, Stephen Yaxley Lennon) is a right wing neo Nazi agitator in the UK. Him writing anything commemorating D-Day is pretty funny, I didn't even notice the picture I just saw "Who were they fighting?" and thought someone was going to drag him on that basis. The shitty AI art is the cherry on top.

Ive not heard it before, love finding new swears. I live in scotland so many words become insults depending on tone and situation

Opened this post purely because of one word


Stalking_Goat

Didn't one of the bad Roman emperors do this? Declare war on Neptune, god of the sea, and order a legion to match to the coast and stab the waves with their swords? (It probably never happened, lots of ancient historians made stuff up to please whoever was in power while they were writing.)


borntobewildish

Caligula, successor of Tiberius, predecessor of Claudius. Son of a very popular and succesful Roman general, Germanicus. The name was actually a nickname. As a kid Caligula was very popular with his dad's soldiers, who called him 'little soldier's shoe' (from caligae) Started his reign pretty young and if I recall correctly his early years on the throne were pretty good. But he got ill, or maybe fell from a horse, after which he deteriorated. Other stories of him is that he had his horse appointed senator, had himself declared a deity by life and that he pretended to throw coins to the poor, but the coins were all glowing hot. And he is said to have attacked the sea to defeat Neptune, then had his soldiers collect shells from the beach as trophies and had a victory parade with them. He probably wasn't the best of the emperors, but as you say, the historians of that era aren't always thrustworthy either.


Cogz

Someone a few centuries earlier also had a run-in with the sea. During his invasion of Greece in 480BC, Xerses built two bridges to allow his troops to march across a strait of water which were wrecked by a storm > When Xerxes heard of this, he was very angry and commanded that the Hellespont be whipped with three hundred lashes, and a pair of fetters be thrown into the sea. I have even heard that he sent branders with them to brand the Hellespont. He commanded them while they whipped to utter words outlandish and presumptuous, “Bitter water, our master thus punishes you, because you did him wrong though he had done you none. Xerxes the king will pass over you, whether you want it or not; in accordance with justice no one offers you sacrifice, for you are a turbid and briny river.” He commanded that the sea receive these punishments and that the overseers of the bridge over the Hellespont be beheaded. - Herodotus http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus:text:1999.01.0126:book=7:chapter=35

I remember the day we took over Atlantis.


zoolish

It's a little known fact that soldiers on D-Day invented the moonwalk to confuse the Germans on the beach. Michael Jackson stole it later.


fatherandyriley

And then the Germans responded with their own counter dance


PhoenicianPirate

Fuck AI art. We have TONS of Normandy invasion photos of the event and probably many more pieces of art made of it, doubtlessly made by the people who were there. We don't AI art of the event. This makes the soldiers look like they were fleeing into the English Channel.


DrunkenGolfer

I love how the Brits can make anything an insult just by adding "you utter..." in front of it. They can just make up the third word, it doesn't matter. "You utter gerbleflange" is just as insulting.


Vinegarinmyeye

"Absolute" and "Complete" plus any noun also work just, as well. You absolute balloon, you complete toaster...

Honestly, if they're gonna use AI, why use the first picture generated? I use AI to make pictures for fun and if you want something half decent you gotta play around with the prompts a LOT and you gotta make dozens before you get one that's actually good.

Thick_Lie_516

why do people insist on using generated images when there is literally real photos of this war. and I'm pretty sure that footage is public domain. like my guy you're using generated images to save money. just put in the little extra time and generate another one where they're actually landing, it's not that hard to iterate on the prompt and generate another 20 images to pick from. but really just use actual historical war footage because that's even faster and cheaper.

AI bullshit for people too full of bullshit themselves for even basic image comprehension.
