Because LLMs are giving average results and cannot be creative by definition.
This is the correct answer.
AI-generated content is a race to the middle.
They're essentially supercharged meme generators.
Early LLMs were so much better for this kind of stuff.
I had a really good thing going with the old ones generating plausible random data. But now they generate the same 15 things over and over, so I went back to concatenating randomized content from lists.
Side effect of them generating all that slop is that they are now ingesting slop. Thats why everyone is so thirsty to take away your privacy, guaranteed slop-free content is very valuable to them now
They've been thirsty to destroy privacy the entire time because predictive analytics always promised better control, coersion, manipulation, and exploitation.
Now the stakes are even higher, and the surveillance can be 1000x more invasive.
I have coworkers who use generative AI for flyers and such. They all have a similar look.
As a guy who can make flyers in Publisher (or PowerPoint or even Word) and Pages (Apple's version of Word/Publisher), it's kinda sad to see. I can understand the aversion to clip art, but AI slop is way worse.
What's crazy is that they actually have an employee (me) who can do the thing, and I often have the time to do it. But, it's not like I get paid less when they use AI to make a flyer.
I'm a sysadmin and wanted a simple icon for a custom script/utility for a program.
I tried to use an LLM make a logo based on the original program logo (provided) and either gears or tools.
Holy crap the output was such garbage.
"Garbage in. Garbage out." I thought so I tried to prompt engineer that shit and 30 min later it was still garbage.
I just used powerpoint and clipart to make one in 15 minutes..
I don't understand why people struggle with vector graphics. The gipity don't even give you organised vectors. People are really fucking themselves in the long run. That is why the gipity is used for scamming because those turds don't care.
I finally convinced a colleague that a bulleted list with a JPG at the top makes a better flier than the slop she generated for the same event last year.
We fuckin' ran out of fliers this year.
If I see slop I equate it to scam. So If anyone out there wants to champion a cause keep that in mind. SLOP == Scam
I like the idea of offering two prices for a job.
$3000 for a flier without AI.
$20 for a flier with AI.
WDYM by cataract filter?
A lot of text is made to look like they're lighted up, except it makes them look like you have cataracts.
I didn't notice any of it.
... at the same time, i don't know any ai website
I am not really a web dev eventhough I am learning about said technology/skills at the current moment. I started to notice trends though. The websites I hated and clicked away from were all made with the gipity to come to find out. Now I am anti-AI evangelist. AI is for the military and soldiers who do not care about the arts and only care about baby skull crushing. It is unholy and gross. AI is theft and ugly tricks for punk ass tricks.
genAI slop websites
There's your answer.
GIGO.
Garbage in, Garbage out, ai tends to average / normalize too much
Same reason ai generated writing or art all looks the same
Because we are entering the relm of the lowest common denominator were the turds are lifted high upon the gods of baby skull crushing. Basicaly we are on pause and only the worst was preserved. I hate slopsites
Because it takes zero skill or imagination to create “art” now.
Because that's what you get with a one line prompt. Those which were crafted more with care and intent, you don't detect with that pattern detector.
are you a slopper?
I'm a critic with actual experience.
SLOPPER ALERT
Oh, this sub is reserved for people who don't know what they're talking about?
I wasn't aware.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
