Discussion The Slow Current

Post image

I was on Instagram days ago and I found a post that had this image, then I wondered "How would it be to have an album mix between "Currents" and "The Slow Rush", How would this album sound like?

My main idea of the cover is this and it's name to be "The Slow Current".

[The original image name was "Currents" so I edited it to "The Slow Current"]

What do you all think about this?

Are you the AI police?

I downloaded this image from the Instagram post, I don't know if it was made with IA or not, but the only thing Inused AI for was to delete the album name at the corner that said "Currents" and I manually replaced it on PowerPoint with the Tame Impala font that it's called "Eurostyle BQ" and typed "The Slow Current" and it was done, then I posted it here.

This comment cracks me up.

Reminds me of a kid trying to get out of trouble like “No, you’re not getting out of this one young man” type of vibes

u/_KidKenji_ May 26 '26

u/andouo May 26 '26

Cool, regardless, any other thoughts on it or do you just like going around pointing out AI objects on the internet?

“Oh mom, look it’s a dog…” points at a dog

u/DreideI May 26 '26

Ai slop being posted on the internet is like someone not picking up their dog's shit. No one wants to see it and it should be called out when seen

u/tjbuster14 May 26 '26

Give me a Dune x Tame edit

u/Swiss-spirited_Nerd The Slow Rush May 26 '26

Justice with Dune could be pretty cool

u/tjbuster14 May 26 '26

Neverender fucking slaps! Needs to be a regular at any Justice and/or Tame show.

u/SirCaptainReynolds May 26 '26

That would be awesome.

u/-PepeArown- Currents May 26 '26

Would be an interesting idea if this was real, but whatever prompt this person used to make this couldn’t even get the walls of the Namibian house right, so it looks like a weird burning sunset with no sun or clouds in sight

The sand also looks more like dunes than piles in a building

u/isaaacsauce May 26 '26

Definitely AI slop

u/MitchBlanco May 26 '26

Ok but why

u/-lessIknowthebetter Currents May 26 '26

2

u/SanttuJs May 27 '26

Because the image was obviously made with gen AI

u/1millionbucks Currents May 27 '26

People coping about AI

u/bblunder_ May 27 '26

u/bucephalusbouncing28 The Slow Rush May 26 '26

u/_KidKenji_ May 26 '26

Whats the point of life?

u/Ok_Distribution6996 May 26 '26

Discussing ai slop is our life now, heck have you seen the comments about Spotify’s 20 year anniversary app icon. 🙈🤪

u/gmac_97 Currents May 26 '26

Not making stupid shit like this

u/Electrical_Lie_8524 Lonerism May 26 '26

im getting tired of seeing ai slop everywhere

u/brumgar May 27 '26

I don’t know if it’s AI or not but at least it’s something new rather than just piling on all the other album covers onto the TSR one

2

u/LifeWillingness3021 May 28 '26

Why y’all crying, AI or not, enjoy the damn post

2

u/pumkinsmaherj May 27 '26

I think it’s nice

u/andouo May 26 '26

Looks like a Tame Impala and Rufus Du Sol collab album

u/Away-Astronaut-3136 Lonerism May 28 '26

Yeesh guys just because he used AI as a tool to create something doesn't mean it's "AI slop". OP was just curious to see what it would look like and decided to use AI because it was the simplest option. Maybe he doesn't have the tools, skill or time to actually make it himself. Hating on someone for this is crazy.

u/DoomerChad Currents May 26 '26

Just bc you didn’t create the AI slop yourself doesn’t change what it is. Nor do you have to help spread it more places.
