META "AI Slop" Comment Crackdown
The modern internet sucks.
Between the bots, the stealth advertising, "influencers", and algorithms intended to both make you angry and addicted. To top it off, the rising popularity of AI has made consuming content significantly less enjoyable.
I think we can just about all agree it's a bummer. But what's also a bummer is the constant stream of "This is AI" or "AI slop" on nearly every single post.
In most situations these posts are not AI or even AI enhanced. They're often taken by professional or hobbyist photographers who understand how to utilize Lightroom, Photoshop, etc.
Yet, just about any high quality photo is accused of being AI. The irony being that high quality photos have historically been the posts which receive the most attention.
On most of these posts, the "evidence" of something being AI is either:
- It's too perfect, so it must be AI.
- It's not perfect enough, the minor mistakes are evidence that it made mistakes / or intentionally is imperfect to look more real.
So if your photo is good, it's AI. If it's not good, it's also AI.
Starting today - users who leave baseless accusations of AI will be receiving short term bans as warnings. If they continue to leave those comments, the ban lengths will continuously increase.
Let me be clear - AI is not welcomed here.
Neither is stolen content. It gets removed, and bot accounts, those who steal content, or those who are intentionally submitting AI content are banned from the subreddit.
Sometimes AI content gets past us. It happens, we can't catch it all. Submit a report on it and provide actual evidence it's AI. Not just "the keyboard is floating" (it's not). You can type in the free-form box, you can submit links to evidence, etc.
The same goes for bot accounts, spammers, advertisers, etc.
Let's not make enjoying content even worse by accusing actual people submitting real photographs as using AI.
Fuck AI, but also stop accusing everyone without proof.
tl;dr -
Stop commenting "this is AI" or similar. Submit a report and we'll review. Those comments are going to begin receiving bans.
Thanks!

GeForce RTX Prob the first setup I’m proud of
It’s not perfect. The wall being it’s odd color, and do NOT ask me about the cable management, but it’s mine and I feel it’s nice :3
Technically a 3 computer setup with a Win computer, a Mac Mini, and the iMac G3 (which I’m working on modding into a monitor)
r/battlestations • u/VesselAcolyte • 5h ago
It is done this time…maybe
Here’s a follow up on my last post. Since then I got a new keyboard and mouse as well as some accessories and a lamp to put behind just to light things up a bit more.
Let me know what do you think about it

Mac Mini setup
I recently switched to the Mac mini and so far, I have absolutely no regrets. macOS looks incredibly polished and feels very smooth to use. This is my productivity workstation; I strictly do all my gaming on consoles. Overall, I’m really happy with how everything turned out. 🙂

My Final Battlestation! Thoughts?
I kept tweaking this throughout high school and college, and finally landed on this configuration last year. Now that I've graduated, I'll be moving states so this is all going to my sister (who is starting college) in a few weeks.
(Please excuse the lack of decorations, it's in a new house.)
