But so many linked articles are full of slop, everywhere. That abbreviation is hilarious AND effective (one of my fave combos)
Thanks Ren



@PeachMcD @gbargoud @renwillis Articles and whatever meme-adjacent images people boost. It's a little annoying to see people who are against AI boosting those, but eh. I can ignore. I know they're not doing it intentionally, nor does the original poster really get anything from the boosts, except maybe a Number Go Up dopamine rush

@Mimesatwork @PeachMcD @renwillis
If you follow someone who posts good things but is questionable in their judgement when boosting, there is a setting to show only their posts and not their boosts.
(Apologies if you already know about it, I find that it's hidden enough to be worth mentioning when relevant)

@gbargoud @PeachMcD @renwillis Ah, good to know! I didn't know about the setting, so thank you. I'm fine with them making human errors on occasion. I don't know if they feel the same about my boosts though

@Mimesatwork @gbargoud @PeachMcD step one, don't assume ill intent. Politely let people know if they are boosting AI.
Be nice though!
After that, yeah, time to hide the boosts.

@renwillis @gbargoud @PeachMcD The problem I run into most these days though is that I can't 100% tell if something is AI if it's not the basic Computer Graphic Average From 2015 style.
There was this old painting meme going around a few days ago I just couldn't get a proper read on. I couldn't find an original and the image had certifiably been online for only few weeks. -

If it was the hippo farting fire one, the actual artist was eventually found and posted there.

@gbargoud @renwillis @PeachMcD LOL it wasn't but god you have to link me to that one I'm begging you

It's this one (I'm not up on my art history so I can't investigate based on that). I saved the image to try edge detect, but obviously if the quality is poor enough to start with, it's not going to be conclusive

@Mimesatwork @renwillis @PeachMcD
That was a difficult one because the quality was too high to be AI art but the subject matter was truly ridiculous in the best ways

brilliant.@renwillis@mstdn.social ngl, this sounds like one of the few things that would be good to bring over from Threads.

I see a "I louvre art memes" watermark on it which could be a good place to investigate.
I think it's probably legit, putting text on an existing painting is so much easier than getting an AI generation of a painting that looks good/consistent and I expect the person who made it took the lower effort route

@gbargoud Yeah I tried looking for that and only came up with a FB group that's either a closed or no longer exists. And I would totally agree that just taking an actual painting would be the easiest, but the fact that I couldn't find anything online (I wanted to credit the original painting) just got my AI-senses tingling
Tbf, as time goes on, the worse my ai-sense gets
