This is a place where you can post jokes, memes, humor, etc. related to programming!
For sharing awful code theres also Programming Horror.
Yeah. The newer versions of Dall-E, GPT-Image, and similar cloud apps seem to have subnetworks specifically for text. They're worlds better than they were just a year or two ago. Like, you can twist them into generating semi-coherent-looking text logos, or make a cartoon character wearing a T-shirt with some text on it.
I've seen some complex pipelines with open models, where people train loras specifically to fix the things the base models suck at, like hands, text, etc.
But it's still a really dumb idea to generate a whole presentation slide or infographic that way, for a wide variety of reasons. If you ever get decent results, just consider yourself lucky. I mean, even the people with the skills to do this well (who are few and far between) would find it way more trouble than just, you know, making slides the normal way.
The incompetence we keep seeing from Microsoft is staggering. I can only assume this is malicious compliance. I imagine some exec said "everyone needs to use AI for everything" and everyone below them said "okay you dumb fuck, here you go".
I'm dreading the day when our bosses get antsy about AI adoption. I dodged two AI-related projects already. Miss me with that shit. My fuckups are mine to own, fix and learn from, my slop is organic and handmade and my business lingo is authentically rough around the edges.
The frustrating thing is that there actually is a use case I can think of where AI might make my life easier, related to processing and cleaning natural language data, but I don't have the resources to do that at the scale I need it (and probably not the know-how either).
