Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

Xitter added a button on the corner of every image that feeds it into a prompt-based "AI" image generator. (hexbear.net)

They graciously labeled it as "Edit image" too, to rub in the fact that artists have 0 control over anything they create. It also masterfully attempts to reinforce the idea that the "AI" slop machine isn't the thing doing all the work, no, no, no, YOU are in charge of the kitchen when you give a prompt to the chef! YOU are the one editing the image!

Of course, this doesn't affect just artists, anyone that posts an image of themselves will be subject to the collective power and machinations of the Xitter user base as now they can shove it down the slop machine in just one click to "edit" it. How exciting.

Whenever I wake up for a new day I am thrilled, because I know it's one day closer to this cursed, bloated, monstrous, wasteful, asinine, ludicrous, horrible "AI" bubble finally popping. This technology is next to useless and the general public shouldn't have ever had access to it.

Happy new year to you as well! I feel you are reaching a little, This conversation is not about saving anyone; It's about artwork, and platforms, It's about consumer and vendor attitudes; I don't consider the conversation pointless because you are beyond saving,, I just see you have your opinion I have mine and there is no point in trying to change anything. Also there might be some cultural barrier between us. (clarified in case it's not sarcasm)

I appreciate it. I can get overzealous in my search for answers to why I struggle to fit in any community. I'm rather desperate for critique at this point. I'm willing to provide any proof necessary to show that I am a genuine human being willing to learn and adapt. I'd like to at least contribute to a better world for you and your friends if there isn't enough room for all of us. Nothing would make me happier to know I've at least left a positive impact.
