Looks like an AI gen at a quick inspection. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
Yup, AI (Midjourney, to be precise).
Good to know. I was worried someone didn't sheer their sheep and it was getting really hot under there.
I think it's actually supposed to be an alpaca.
*An alpaca with Shrek ears and the eyes of a demon.
Seriously, I don't know how people can find it cute, it becomes more and more uncanny and downright horrible the more you look at it.
Do you just know that from seeing it on the midjourney feed, or are you able to judge the model just from looking at it? 😮
No, I did a Google image search and found out how it was made. I'm definitely not good enough to know which AI program made an image on sight!
Maybe someday 🧐
Lighting is usually a good giveaway.
Take this alpaca(?). Standing outside, casting a relatively clear shadow, and yet still mostly lit uniformly. The background doesn't necessarily contradict where the sun is supposed to be, but it also doesn't seem give any support to it either.
I'm assuming the opposite, that AI will get so good that I won't be able to tell without searching for the image/video online. Terrifying, really.
I think that's totally possible, but I also think it's equally likely that people become better and better at recognizing it. I remember when I was a kid what now looks like terrible CGI in movies was quite believable. People are really good at recognizing patterns, and especially for any kids growing up with AI they're going to get a lot of exposure to it and likely become very good at spotting it. For all anyone knows it may just become inbred too if they can't find a way to weed out AI from the training.
I'm not saying the hype the ai industry is pushing about only improving from here couldn't happen, but it's hardly a foregone conclusion from what I've seen so far.
I'll definitely be deliberately trying to learn how to spot AI because I think it will become a more and more essential skill as time goes on. Hope you're right!
What do I have to do to get two?
Priest: I could cast Remove Cur-
DON'T YOU FUCKING DARE
This matches my thoughts on it :)
Best curse ever
Oh no, please, don't. Hypothetically, if I were to anger you further, would she get floofier?
She’s so fluffy I’m gonna die
It's pretty great that the Warlock's patron doesn't know what would actually be considered a curse for a typical mortal.
Like when Anya from Buffy the Vampire Slayer dresses up as a bunny rabbit for Halloween because she's a demon and thinks rabbits are scary.
My party artificer, making a sheering kit...
You may sheer it, but it grows back almost instantly. ;)
Yay, infinite money glitch, let's retire from adventurer life and just become wool traders
It also disappears from your hands. Monkey paw that wish!
Then make an Alchemy Jug. I don't need the sheep for an infinite money glitch.
Or every fabric woven out of that wool slowly turns the wearer mad or into a follower of the patreon.
^But mooom this sweater is sooooo fluffy^
We will kill him.
Lady Marshmallow travels like a Wooloo.
And it's not even a shiny... which means Lady Marshmallow survived the great Wooloo massaker.
