@davidaugust @ai6yr Those are some bizarre “scissors.”
@trevorparker @davidaugust Oooh, good call, AI slop. Unboosted.
@ai6yr @trevorparker nope, processed stock photography, the scissors are occluded in the original, this is a filter on a stock photo. I found it as part of the Brown Black and White Modern Labor Day Instagram Post template on Canva. It is not AI:
@davidaugust Uh, is that an AI image used to illustrate the quote?
@unlambda @davidaugust I was going to say the same thing. What is up with those uh.... scissors?
@sundogplanets @davidaugust Yeah, it's clearly slop. Kind of a funny choice to illustrate a quote about "human dignity and the common good."
@ai6yr @unlambda @sundogplanets it is not slop! You make something of yourself when you assume.
I can see why you may have thought it was, but it is a stock photo put through a filter.
@davidaugust @ai6yr @unlambda That is probably the thing I hate the most about the prevalence of slop AI images. They make me doubt EVERYTHING.
Thank you for this!
@sundogplanets @davidaugust @unlambda I suspect the "filter" you used is actually AI, as well. Which is typical nowadays. It's been asked to redraw the original image in a different style, and it's not "filtering", it's AI slopping it.

@davidaugust @unlambda @ai6yr May I offer you a pile of super cute goats as a consolation prize?
@sundogplanets @unlambda @ai6yr
YES! Thank you. Quite welcome.
Still almost can't believe I not only got it wrong but I doubled and kinda tripled down on my wrong. Humiliation is mine, goats help.
Thank you very much!
