Scientists rename human genes to stop Microsoft Excel from misreading them as dates

Sometimes it’s easier to rewrite genetics than update Excel

Not OP, but let's make this better:

PS: i doubt anyone here would honestly say "damn, that's beyond my skill", which goes to show that "not everyone can draw" is a bullshit argument for using AI to make comics

The glass is floating in the air. The excel character says something without a speaking bubble. Looks kinda souless.

Probably just AI slop.

What, Medium/Small/Large order seems off to you??

You're assuming that I'm not a Yank? Let me tell you, I can Yank with the best of them, and I do!

Honestly, for a community (lemmy) that wanted to get away from corporate stuff (reddit) it pains me to see how even the most basic thing to draw is being delegated to Ai (corporations).

[-] ArmoredThirteen@lemmy.zip 57 points 2 months ago

I've come to the conclusion in the last couple weeks I simply can't identify AI images anymore. I have no clue what about this makes everyone call it out as AI, and there's have been many such instances of this happening with me lately. I'm going to get modern day Nigerian princed when I'm older I can feel it in my bones

[-] skisnow@lemmy.ca 26 points 2 months ago

The reason this one is blatant AI is that the imagery doesn’t make any sense. Why is the glass of water itself the optimist?

[-] TempermentalAnomaly@lemmy.world 18 points 2 months ago

I fed it into ChatGPT, highlighted the errors, and told it what I wanted to be different.

[-] Irelephant@lemm.ee 12 points 2 months ago

Still looks kinda soulless.

[-] TempermentalAnomaly@lemmy.world 15 points 2 months ago

I asked AI to add soul, but it said it was a thing weak, insecure people believe in when they can't accept the inevitiblity of their death and the meaninglessness of their lives.

Most of it for me is the font. It seems like chatgpt likes to use the same font for everything

It also kind of feels off somehow. I can't explain. it, but there's just something wrong with this image

[-] cannedtuna@lemmy.world 31 points 2 months ago

I mean.. for me it’s the “why the fuck is the glass talking?”

[-] TheLowestStone@lemmy.world 18 points 2 months ago

Left guy has 1 arm. Both guys have an arm that melds into the surface that the glass is sitting on. The "optimist" is the glass.

Same here. I did not think twice about this picture or a few other posts in the past and yet there are pitchforks in the comments and I think to myself "What are you all on about?". I rue how unrecognizable AI "slop" has gotten.

thing to draw is being delegated to Ai (corporations).

But, not all AI is corporate run, there's plenty of AI models to choose from that are open source including image generation models

And actually, image generation models are much easier to run on "affordable" consumer hardware than LLMs

[-] unhrpetby@sh.itjust.works 11 points 2 months ago

If they don't have the training data available, then I wouldn't consider them open source.

it's funny how you can tell at a glance exactly what model generated this image, just based off the background color

[-] smee@poeng.link 12 points 2 months ago

you

No I can't. Have you considered you might be beyond normal smart about this stuff?

[-] sus@programming.dev 9 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

well it's supposed to be the "passive" you (or "indeterminate" you)

but I think anyone can learn to notice the pattern of comics with this particular odd color style ^(assuming^ ^you^ ^would^ ^want^ ^to^ ^learn^ ^it^ ^for^ ^some^ ^reason,^ ^and^ ^if^ ^we^ ^ignore^ ^color^ ^blindness^ ^or^ ^other^ ^similar^ ^problems^ ^etc)^

Someone explain to me why i have a sense for ai? This is like the fourth time this week i see an ai image and i spotted it even tho at first i hadnt seen the mistakes the ai made. Something just feels off in ai pictures and i cant really pin down what it is. But when i see one i can just spot it for some reason.

Yesterday I laughed at this, today Excel stripped leading zeros from a sheet of UPCs and converted them to floating point.

Also format as Text apparently means nothing
