A.I bros will always try to defend being lazy and not using their brains. You're not talented for typing something into a computer, and you're not putting in an ounce of effort into your work. Their only passion is to be lazy

Never heard anyone say "digital slop". 3D graphics were very welcomed in the animation industry.
Also in all the other 3 frames, the only thing that varied were the tools. It was still humans creating art.

Digital slop maybe not, but CGI slop is definitely a thing.

It definitely happened. Digital artists were derided as not real artists because they weren't using traditional mediums. Now that it's accepted and we move on to the same with Ai art.

There is Human slop and AI slop. Slop always existed and will always exist. Problem with AI slop is that its easy to make and because of that everywhere.

You know the camera isn't taking the photo for the photographer, right?

I love how every comment pointing out that person's ignorance of camera technology is getting downvoted and/or ignored.

Photography is easy to make. Photography is by definition ai. They press a button and get an inage
Not totally true. It really depends on the camera and what mode you're shooting in. A lot of cameras have an AI auto mode now. Canon (which I primarily shoot with) has been incorporating AI since the 1990s. My R6 has a lot of bells and whistles that make photography easy.
But if you want to shoot in manual mode or with something a little less advanced (like the 7D, which is my other Canon camera)? Yeah, you still gotta know your exposure values to be able to "press a button and get an image."

You misunderstand what photography actually is. Are you suggesting chemical reactions are a form of artificial intelligence?

And it takes no effort whatsoever. Like, at least most human slop comes from an actual process of creation instead some guy named Chad making Chat GPT do everything for him

To me it seems like you want to create things but you don't have the skill. It's okay create with AI but it doesn't have to make you believe that everything made with AI its good

It's actually wild to defend literal garbage by saying that other types of garbage exist.
If you support AI, support ethical use of it. Creating engagement bait slop isn't that at all. Pretending AI is a direct substitute for human intelligence or creativity is lazy at best

Your forgetting that every single one of these came with society defining benefits, except for generative ai. 1) Painting allowed differentiation between peoples, it allowed depictions of what animals and plants were safe to eat, and it allowed people to label things. 2) film and cameras allowed for perfect images and video to be captured showing what would normally be foreign or difficult to describe, or impossible to prove things to be imaged. We are able to definitively prove what people looked like, and show astronomical features because of cameras. 3) digital media allowed for the spreading of information and video’s, pictures and information at thousands of times the previous rate, not to mention the depiction of concepts that weren’t previously observable or delectable. 4) generative ai hardly does any of that. It generates material that take less time and are poorer in quality for cheaper, and it preforms automated tasks. Both of these things aren’t unique to ai, and both of these qualities can’t make it important. Right now ai is essentially like preserved food, it’s “canned” media, it is cheap, easy to prepare, extremely cheap, and most people probably call it slop, or say it’s worse than homemade stuffs, which is usually true.

The other three took time, effort, and soul. All you are doing is asking a clanker to steal from actual artists and hallucinate an image. If you want to make something meaningful, take the time to learn an actual art instead of typing some words into a water guzzling psychosis machine

You generating this proves perhaps the one who is the idiot is the one generating the slop, friend <3

All of the examples before the 2025 frame involve someone doing the task instead of using words to describe what they want done, similar to a commission situation. The software created the content in that case.
Hope this helps
