especially something that doesnt generate any usefulness outside of slop.
That's not going to stop people from sending in their photos and videos to get "Ghiblified"
TIL that, according to Wiktionary, Ghiblified is a word.
Nah, but charging them would.
Ai only gets a pass until we're actually charged for it. It's a fun toy to most people, would they pay for it? Nah lol. I'd pay to get rid of it.
And that’s already begun.
The generators are now starting to shift over to paid tokens, which isn’t bringing in the profits they’d hoped.
Also coincidentally all software now incorporating ai “tools” are increasing in subscription cost! And no you don’t get to choose a non-ai option that keeps the cost where it is now!
They have to force this shit and charge extra for it to make it look like it’s making money.
Any asshole that doesn’t go bankrupt from this in the end should be angry mobbed out of their homes.
I've heard that OpenAI loses money even on their most expensive plans, which are 400$/month.
Yeah they seem to make money entirely from investments and truly how long can investors keep pumping money into something without getting any return? Eventually something has gotta give.
But of course you don’t need to actually be smart to have seemingly endless amounts of money so sadly it could take a while longer than we’d like.
To be fair some slop is very useful, but the expectations are too high.
It’s all very handy if your aim is to scam idiots and old people!
