  2. Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
  3. You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
  4. Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
  5. Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.

When we started letting tech-bros on social media hype up AI like it would be the savior for all humanity and in just a few short years we'll all be sailing on our AI-powered yachts with AI-powered martinis and sacks of AI-powered cash from our AI-powered stock trades.

Then when they started getting snippy and biting back and saying how it "democratizes art" and it lets us spend more time working so the AI can do our art and writing, we didn't laugh and then drive them into the FUCKING SEA, instead we all politely respected their opinions and now we have at least a decade of useless, incremental "advances" to products we don't want.

You can love AI all you want, but the moment you go to bat for the corporate slop being pushed on us, you're one of them.
