/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags.
Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

wtf did they use AI to generate this poster?
Or it is really bad photo editing/manipulation. That poster looks really bad.
Yeah probably, none of them have extra fingers. But wow did someone screw the targ with this poster.
Given the time period it was made (ie, now) it's entirely possible there was some artist who was ordered by a manager to use more AI in their work and was forced to edit the output to try to make it look less like shit.
It's just a lot of HDR processing. You get this when you extend curves to maximize range and then crank the vibrancy and definition sliders to the top.
it looks like AI because the older Stable Diffusion models had flaws that caused them to prioritize vibrancy instead of realism.
You could be right, this does look a lot like the fake HDR pictures that were common in the 2000s
Yeah, and the AI generator was set to '90s
