It interested me for 5 seconds, you think I can afford not being able to find it again in 7 years??

I only download stuff from there that I'm highly motivated to read because I feel bad for wasting the bandwidth otherwise

People who archive do it to make sure things are not permanently lost to corporate greed.

Yep.

I download concert videos I like from Youtube, less because I want to watch them all the time, but because eventually, some corporation is going to swoop in and delete it all.

You think I'm archiving?

Friend, I'm wholly in this image, filled with shame, but honest enough to admit it.

The linked sites? Those aren't the subject of the meme, they're some of the suppliers for my uncontrolled addiction to reading the first paragraph of something, thinking I might want to reference it later and then hitting download and never, ever returning.

It does go in a folder which is never cleaned though, which remains entirely unorganized.

More like the fascist state is going to purge the entire internet of everything except their shitty subscription based llms, so you won't be able to get any real information anymore. 10 years maybe? Internet will be dead.

Man, I got shop drawings of steam engines I know I will never build. The problem is I just like opening them up and looking at them. They are my precious.

Hey now, I have a huge number of books I have never read but I do need them sometimes, like what the reluctance of 336 stainless that some Dingdong wants to install on this 500kv transformer? That is a book publishled in 1993 that I have looked through once to find that exact thing. Don't want random pieces of hot metal attached to the equipment.

Why does this feel like AI?

Edit: the mouse is too big to fit through the tunnels and there are 5 buttons instead of 4

PieMePlenty 2 points 3 months ago

Cause it is generated. There are some mistakes in it, but I personally only notice them after a more in depth look. The biggest tell for me is the piss filter. A lot of these will be yellow toned for some reason. Also makes the image look more warm. Warm like piss.

helpImTrappedOnline 2 points 3 months ago

Nah, the fake trees are getting better at blending into the forest.

This images has some tells that is was generated, it's possible some post clean up was done but when's the last time you've seen a mug with two handles? I'll admit those do exists, so it could be the artist's choice. On the painting on the book case, splitting the mouse's head in half is also certainly a choice....

Looking at the "game" it self, someone else mentioned the mouse doesn't fit in the tunnels. The gaps are inconsistent as well, some areas of the map are inaccessible, regardless of the characters Sir. The big cheeses are all different, and some of the cheese dots go over the green walls. Those aren't mistakes someone would make by hand, especially considering the amount of detail in the rest of the image. If it was a kid's doodle, I'd be a bit more forgiving.

AI is getting better, it's hard to tell what is and what isn't AI at a glance, especially when a human cleans up some of the obvious mistakes. These days you really have to scrutinize an image on the technical details/logic of it to decide.
