Why an ai image

[–] glimse@lemmy.world 30 points 4 months ago

It's a way to counteract the environmental benefits of not maintaining a lawn by wasting electricity to generate an image instead of using one of the thousands of suitable pictures that already exist. Duh

[–] toaster@slrpnk.net 4 points 4 months ago

I found this image online and now that I see it was created by AI, the hypocracy is obvious.

Why not? It's a meme not the Sistine chapel ceiling

[–] drdiddlybadger@pawb.social 9 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Cause it looks shitty. A literal Ms paint scribble would be better.

Who cares? Like, I'm not defending ai images here, they suck. But are you really seeking a high quality vintage art style meme?

Pretty sure Michelangelo could figure out how a fucking hose works tho

[–] GBU_28@lemm.ee -1 points 4 months ago

Sure. Why couldn't he?

OP is too lazy to maintain a lawn do you think they’d put effort into this?

TONY! Love that man.

Join our goddamned cult. Kill Your Lawn. Create habitat and eradicate the bland. Create a native plant or a vegetable garden in your front yard. Killing your lawn and growing native plants is the best way to learn to identify the plants that USED to grow where you lived before the commercial automobile slum cesspool (trademark) was built. But most importantly, kill the lawn within yourself.

Even the video description is cool.
