A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

What is up with the weird soft look that so many AI images have?
It’s probably trained on a fuckton of Thomas Kinkade paintings, just statistically, since his output was so huge. He also had that kind of lighting going on, so it wouldn’t surprise me if that’s just baked into AI image generation now.
Interesting. Never heard of him, but immediately recognized the style
There’s a good couple of episodes from Behind the Bastards about him, if you’re into that sort of thing.
