Can you imagine a world without AI?

[–] Aggravationstation@feddit.uk 2 points 12 hours ago

Webster's dictionary defines artificial intelligence as the capability of computer systems or algorithms to imitate intelligent human behavior.

To imitate intelligent human behavior.

It's a reference to this meme:

The girl pasted over Tintin is Wednesday Addams, and she mistakenly refers to Captain Haddock as a commodore, so instead of Tintin saying "Captain, it's Wednesday," Haddock says "Wednesday, it's Captain."

Ah thanks, that's the most understandable explanation yet, though I don't understand why the original is a meme at all. No worries!

The recaptioned panel gained significant popularity as a reaction image used to express tiredness and being overwhelmed, but is also used as a template for redraws.

It's referring to this post, which was AI generated.

Um, thanks. I don't get that one either, though I can see the AI artifacts. It's ok though.

The joke is it inverts the usual "what a week/but captain it's Wednesday" meme. Wednesday (the character) calls the captain Commodore (a title for someone in command of a group of ships, but lower rank than an admiral). The captain corrects Wednesday, saying he's just a captain.

In the original instance of this meme (no idea if it's like that in the comic as well) the captain says exhaustedly "What a week." And Tintin says "Captain, it's Wednesday!"

So this one jumbled the words around.

A shitty edit is way better than any AI slop

[–] enbiousenvy@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

I've seen one case where people trying to make rage comics & wojaks "look better" by using ai. Like a techbro they are not getting the value of a meme is not high quality visual or professional visual, while in fact, shitty edits with noticable jpeg artifacts can make a meme funnier or ironic.

yhea, it's the crude human craft that makes it relatable.

But not enough fingers for AI-slop. Fingers! Father! Give me fingers!
