    How can you tell?

      I don’t know how to explain it, but all fake linocut/woodblock print images are kind of samey in a way that sticks out when you see it, compared to linocut/woodblock prints by artists.

      It’s almost always this same background color/texture in generated images too, whereas with real prints you might have paper that looks very different even if it’s that exact color. And plenty of artists go wild with the paper and ink colors.

      It’s not just one thing, it’s a lot of little things that give it a bad vibe.

      I think it’s a couple different things possibly? The eye is weird. The fingers and toes are weird. The belly is weird. The positioning of the so-called anus is pretty far off from where it should be and pointing the wrong direction.

      The background color and size and placement of the anus make it sus to me.

    Keep complaining while you can, in 5 or 10 years you really won’t be able to tell anymore.

      We will be able to tell. And we have plenty of media created before AI bros contaminated art, so rest assured I won’t have to interact with AI productions anyway.

      But then it won’t matter. The problem is that this looks like ass and didn’t need to be made with an AI image generator. It could easily be made with any free word processor and a picture of an embryo found anywhere.

      they said that about synthesizers. You can still tell 30 years later.

  Curiosity got the best of me.

  All vertebrates and fish fit this category it seems.

  Things that don’t: insects, arachnids, crustaceans.

    And sea stars are in our category. If you always thought of Patrick as more relatable than Squidward, now you know why

      I don’t think any individual I’ve seen on TV, real or fictional, was more relatable than Squidward.

  All humans are single tract passing through a fleshy exterior wall. We are just big doughnuts.

  See, human beings are really a lot of tubes. And all living creatures are just tubes. And these tubes have to put things in at one end and let it out at the other.

  Then they get clever about it and they develop nerve ganglia on one end of the tube—the eating end—called a head. And that’s got eyes in it, it’s got ears in it, it’s got little organs—antennae and things like this—and that helps you to find things to put in one end so that you can let them out the other.

  Well, while you’re doing this, you see, the stuff going through wears the tube out. And so that the show can go on the tubes have complicated ways of making other tubes, who go on doing the same thing. In at one end, out the other. And they say, “Well, that’s terribly serious! That’s awfully important; we’ve got to keep on doing this.”

    “Let’s not kill with knives so easily Society’s gift to the world There is no good reason to hurt somebody If you want to stab something, stab your heart Listen up boys take it easy There’s a place for you somewhere It’s probably right in front of you Find yourself Open your eyes

    Teenagers are all assholes Teenagers are all assholes Teenagers are all assholes Teenagers are all assholes

    Don’t torment your friends and neighbors Someday you’ll see you are small There is no good reason to assault somebody If you wanna beat someone, beat yourself Stress can give you good energy Stress can be lots of big fun Are you really running on your own rail Find yourself Open your eyes”
