The prep work is one thing. The follow through is another. The motive though? That's the key.

Why AI meme?

No hate to AI or image generation, they have their purposes, but why AI meme?

This is a 2 minute sketch, TBH I might be able to make this by hand faster than any of my locally deployed AI models.

"Sketch, Color, Snap, Crop, Add Text, Upload."

Dont say its a skill thing, I've seen literal stick figure drawings on lined paper get upvoted to frontpage here on Lemmy.

Who's the artist that made this

Likely AI. What sticks out to me is the text thats too messy to be font and too clean to be handwriting. It does not come up in a Tineye search, which would be common if it was reposted from somewhere else, and if OP made it they could say so. Lack of credit is always suspicious

Does AI just generate a font now and use that for text? I'm asking because the letters seem to be entirely consistent which I don't think would happen if the text was image-gend.

There's also a good chance it's just the image that was AI generated and someone did manually add the text, easiest check might be to reverse search without the text.

No, the text was definitely edited in afterwards.

Ai Weiwei, minus the Weiwei

When the conversation does happen, the participants don't follow the preplanned answers

Prepares to deliver bad news

The person accepts it without question

It's a great way to not get any sleep though.

I have these conversations with my dog instead of the real person. He understands and is ALWAYS on my side

[–] xamirozar@lemm.ee 1 points 23 hours ago

Aww I like that 🥰

[–] dumbass@leminal.space 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yeah, but the day that it finally happens I will have forgotten it all.

The trick is to spend uncomfortably long trying to remember what you decided you should say

[–] BallShapedMan@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

Alright, you busted me. Aren't you clever!

This is my jam. A friend of mine described this as having an audience of people in your head that you've collected for various reasons, some positive, some toxic and poisonous. Like your best friend, or your mother, or your asshole boss that you have to deal with every day. Living in your head arguing with you and making you justify yourself, or perhaps encouraging you if it's not a toxic audience member. The audience also changes over the years and as you change, people come and go.

They do happen, couple hours to few years ago

[–] aceshigh@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

I’ve decided to take control over my thoughts. I’m more cognizant of them now and stop before I start ruminating.

[–] BuboScandiacus@mander.xyz 2 points 23 hours ago

They do happen !

[–] sirico@feddit.uk 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

They'll post a meme about how I win arguments with people in my head, and I'll say no because I lose them all. That'll show them.
