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

Most of the time it took me do this since I posted your image as a meme, and this one I made, was installing a phone app, realizing it wasn't installing because I have it configured to not install with mobile data, then learn how the app works + I used my finger (a simple touchpen is cheap af to the point it sometimes comes with some regular pens, I have one but it's broken lmao). Hella easier on PC with a mouse and my PC shortcuts, or with a working touchpen, imo, but easy as fuck anyways.

Edit: I forgot to add the last guy his arms crossed or something, I should just go sleep XD

Last panel has strong Carl vibes

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

Probably just AI slop.

This is so much better. Thank you for spending the roughly 5 minutes to make this that OP should have spent instead of barfing out some soulless junk.

I'll learn blender just to make this a scene. BRB 1 weened

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.

[–] elrecoal19_1@lemmy.world 19 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

Uncanny valley. The AI gets things right overall, but not enough that you don't realize somerhing is wrong.

For me it's the arms being fused with the table,pessimist only having one arm, the faces that feel too generic/soulless (like, they barely change between pesimist and excel), the "optimist" being the glass and not another character...

[–] absentbird@lemm.ee 9 points 6 days ago (1 children)

The glass is also weirdly large considering it looks like it should be at roughly the same distance as the people.

[–] T156@lemmy.world 4 points 5 days ago

The glass is also speaking, as opposed to a third person.

[–] guywithoutaname@lemm.ee 5 points 5 days ago (1 children)

I noticed that the new image model doesn't like pure white backgrounds.

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 58 points 6 days ago (4 children)

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 27 points 6 days ago (2 children)

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 15 points 6 days ago (4 children)

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

[–] Irelephant@lemm.ee 9 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Still looks kinda soulless.

[–] TempermentalAnomaly@lemmy.world 18 points 6 days ago (1 children)

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 6 days ago

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

[–] TheLowestStone@lemmy.world 19 points 6 days ago (6 children)

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.

Was this made by ai? It looks soulless, and the coffee cup is talking.

[–] AugustWest@lemmy.world 8 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Who drinks coffee out of a transparent pint glass?

I can sense AI now.

[–] wise_pancake@lemmy.ca 16 points 6 days ago

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
