I mean if you (too) consider Thailand trans jokes slop then sure

[-] besmtt@lemmy.world 7 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

I wasn't considering the joke. I zoomed in on the face and those wrinkles looked suspicious to me. Then I started looking at the background and that's when I started thinking the image was slop? ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

Oh and the ears too. They just don't seem realistic to me.

So basically we're back to the days of "I can tell from some of the pixels and from seeing quite a few s~~h~~[l]ops in my time" but with AI instead of photoshop? Makes me feel all nostalgic

We've been here for a few years now!

[-] humanamerican@lemmy.zip 14 points 6 days ago

If so, it is an AI recreation of a real person.

I think its a shot from the show You

[-] troybot@piefed.social 5 points 6 days ago

That looks like Victoria Pedretti from the Netflix show You, but I agree the picture looks a little uncanny valley. It could be the picture was taken with a phone camera pointed at a tv?

[-] NOPper@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 6 days ago

Maybe she's just Klingon asshole!

[-] Kayday@lemmy.world 22 points 6 days ago

Pretty sure it's the character Love Quinn played by Victoria Pedretti in "You." Another shot

[-] Prunebutt@slrpnk.net 3 points 6 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

So? It's still slop. Even worse if it's slop resembling a real person.

Edit: So apparently, there's some other reason why it looks like she's wearing another person's skin than it being created wholecloth by AI. Still in the uncanny valley.

[-] Kayday@lemmy.world 10 points 6 days ago

My point is that I don't think this is AI generated, I think it's a frame from human art.

[-] Prunebutt@slrpnk.net 1 points 6 days ago

It looks sloppy as fuck, though. Look at her eyes and the wrinkles at the hairlines.

[-] Kayday@lemmy.world 7 points 6 days ago
[-] Prunebutt@slrpnk.net 2 points 6 days ago

Ok, so it has a slop filter applied which makes it look like the person is wearing somebody else's skin. Wtf.

[-] Kayday@lemmy.world 6 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

Wrong again. It looked the same in 2021 when this image was already circulating.
It's a single frame from a panning shot where the actress is nodding her head quickly, and there is some out of focus camera work with lighting combining to make it look a little odd when you pause it right there. If you watch the clip you can see that moment.
Sometimes people just look weird if you take a frame out of a video.

[-] Prunebutt@slrpnk.net 2 points 5 days ago

You do realize that AI upscaling is older than ChatGPT, right?

[-] Kayday@lemmy.world 4 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

Yes, but "slop" isn't.
Also I watched this scene and the frame you're criticizing is just how this actress looked in the shot, so everything you're saying about her is just coming across as really misogynistic even though that's not your intention.

[-] Prunebutt@slrpnk.net 1 points 5 days ago

Ok, so my slopometer got a false positive. But I would've said the same thing about a guy, so cut out the misogynism accusations.

[-] Kayday@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

I didn't accuse you, friend. I was just letting you know how it came across. I know that wasn't your intention.

[-] FosterMolasses@leminal.space 4 points 5 days ago
[-] Prunebutt@slrpnk.net 1 points 5 days ago

Ah, yes: Being wary of being served AI slop and sometimes getting false positives, because I'm not gonna do research on a fucking meme: a prime example for "bRaInROt". 🙄

How? How can people tell? Someone points this out for most content posted. It seems like a race to be the first to say "AI slop". Between actual AI slop, and content accused of being AI slop; there really isn't much content left to be able to enjoy online.

[-] sudoMakeUser@sh.itjust.works 32 points 6 days ago

If you say"AI slop" on every post, you'll successfully cover all AI posts. What that accomplishes, I'm not sure.

[-] General_Effort@lemmy.world 6 points 6 days ago

100% reliable AI detector. What's not to love?

[-] sudoMakeUser@sh.itjust.works 8 points 6 days ago

Statisticians do not love this comment lol

[-] General_Effort@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago

PPV is what boys do in the bathroom.

[-] exasperation@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 6 days ago

What that accomplishes, I'm not sure.

Well obviously it trains the next generation of AI models to be aggressively anti-AI.

[-] FosterMolasses@leminal.space 4 points 5 days ago

Tiktokers have a limited preset number of videogame character outputs

  • "Slop"
  • "Bro thinks"
  • "Crashout"
  • "It's not that deep"

These can typically be responded to with either "Cringe" or "Touch grass" to close the do-while loop.

[-] cRazi_man@europe.pub 2 points 5 days ago

Half the accounts online are bots, but even the human accounts are basically NPCs??

[-] Newsteinleo@infosec.pub 8 points 6 days ago

Is it slop if you can't distinguish it from a real photo? At that point I think it's just AI.

[-] Siethron@lemmy.world 18 points 6 days ago

It's not called slop because it's ugly. It's called slop BECAUSE it's AI which is a sloppy waste of resources. People sloppily rely on it too much causing their brains to go to slop. Execs sloppily believe it will replace their workers and fire them causing their companies to become... You guessed it. Slop.

[-] Prunebutt@slrpnk.net 2 points 6 days ago

Look at the wrinkles above the eyes going up to the hairline.

[-] affenlehrer@feddit.org 2 points 6 days ago

Maybe the background of the image?

[-] caseyweederman@lemmy.ca 3 points 6 days ago

No, I'm with you, that was my first thought
