How can you tell it's AI generated? This is a real question because I legitimately have trouble recognizing AI that doesn't have egregious issues like mangled fingers, and unfortunately I think recognizing AI content is going to be a survival skill in the next decade.
The fun thing is, old AI slop helps new AI slop look more believable. The main tells is line work and fonts. Chat GPT has a very distinct art style, with a lot of soft lines and generic fonts. It's also extremely consistent. You could look up a dedicated sub for Chat GPT memes to get a feel for it. Then you'll start to loathe it.
The artstyle. I have learned (through experencie, more than through actual research) what artstyles AI uses, but I can't point out exactly what are their characteristics, they just give me a special type of uncanny valley vibes. In this one, the eyes are what stand out the most because I do remember more memes with that type of eyes, but I think I have also seen these face shapes in other AI memes.
Edit: The two people who hate me for not liking AI, make yourselves seen, I'm aware of your downvoting in comments!
Talk about a self-fulfilling prophecy.
You think you can identify AI because you only take into consideration the AI that you're able to identify.
Every time you get tricked into thinking AI is an actual person, you don't realize it so you don't factor it in.
I swear, a lot of the AI hate these days really outs how ignorant people are about the world they live and how illogically they go about obtaining or verifying information.
Well, yeah, when I said I learned the artstyles that it uses, I meant the low quality, barely polished ones that most people use to make AI slop.
The hate is because people will not only post slop, but it will be mass-produced slop because they have to spend ZERO time and effort on it so across different people the artstyle will be similar and, therefore, predictable.
Edit: Fixed formatting
done
cool, i’ll delete my comment
