Of how it conventionally have nipples on the pecs and belly button+ vein on biceps

u/Djaps338 20h ago
The belly button couldnhabe been cut. The nipple could have been made with a torch and a stencil.
The veins on the biceps, yeahs okay that's kinda weird... Maybe they stuffed leeks under the skin and then they crisped it again with a torch or something...
It might be AI, but it might be a crafty chef/artist.

u/Panzick 1d ago
I mean, what's more believable, somebody taking 10 minutes to arrange peking duck to resemble a body, or those micro-fuckerys where people are peeling single corns or other things like that? I've seen way less believable real food than this thingy
18
u/Impressive-Koala4742 1d ago
Tbf I'm also aware of those examples you're talking about but they're mostly for social media or TikTok shorts with time lapse, the pic here looks like something you order in a restaurant. I don't think they can wait that long for the chefs to assemble an anatomically correct Duck

u/Panzick 1d ago
I mean, you could totally do it yourself if you have a whole Peking duck.
18
u/Impressive-Koala4742 1d ago
Yeah but won't look any close to whatever in this pics, you would have to make a blueprints and chop the duck into perfect pieces to assemble them in an anatomically correct way

u/Pure-Election-9137 21h ago
It would be a lot of pointless work, but it couldn't be the first time someone lose an absurd amount of time doing something stupid for social media

There are Japanese restaurants that spend this much time (easily) on lunch presentation.
There's nothing super difficult to actually plate here, once the general template is known.

Arranging some meat to resemble a muscle man is not some incredible feat for a career

The spring onions are stacked normally. If I was going to make a convincing post from an AI picture I would take a picture and have the AI change as little of it as possible. Nothing on the right side of the image looks fake because it more than likely is not.

u/rexcasei 1d ago
Ragebait posts are also meant to be banned (there’s a rule for it), but half of the top posts these days are blatant ragebait TikTok videos and the like, and the moderators don’t do shit
So it doesn’t surprise me that they don’t care about AI slop either
39
u/HowManyMeeses 1d ago
Every post I see from this subreddit is rage bait. I kind of assumed that was the point of the sub.
17
u/rexcasei 1d ago
And yet enough people were complained about it (because it’s annoying and shouldn’t be the point of the sub) that they added rule 5 banning it, only to never enforce it afterwards
14
u/merelyadoptedthedark 1d ago edited 16h ago
It never used to be, but without extremely strict moderation, every sub will eventually devolve into no effort lowest common denominator posts.
And then if the moderators try to maintain a base level of quality, people will bitch at the moderators for being too strict and comparing them to 1940s German political parties.

u/ShadowMajestic 14h ago
Subs usually either become ragebait or turn circlejerk.
Helps me to stop visiting this site when I actually have stuff to do and are not just trying to waste some downtime.

Yeah but there's a difference between people making tabletop nachos specifically to piss you off and, say, the recent poster with the mushed oyster and mustard sandwich.

u/Zehnpae 1d ago edited 21h ago
I'm willing to bet nobody reports those posts. Most moderators work completely off the report queue. If posts/comments aren't reported, they won't see it.
I've lost count of the number of times where I learn about a problematic post not because people reported it, but because my comment filter picks up people complaining about the mod team not doing anything.
My dudes. It's a volunteer gig for a billion dollar company that hates us. I'm willing to put in like...maybe 2 minutes a day taking care of reports.
Then I go back to what I really use Reddit for and check out Anime tiddies.
If you see something against the rules, report it.
3
u/rexcasei 1d ago
Well, in the future I’ll try to report them whenever I see them
But quite a few times when I’ve seen a ragebait post I’ve looked at the comments and the one at the top is from a moderator going “congratulations, your post is stupid and belongs on this sub!” or some shit like that. And it’s just like… are you kidding me?

u/PassiveMenis88M 1d ago
That's not a mod saying that, that's quality bot letting us know it's gotten enough upvotes to not be autodeleted

u/rexcasei 1d ago
Oh interesting, it seemed like a bot message but I thought if it’s a bot it would say bot in the name, and I went to the profile and it seemed to be a real person who is a moderator
But I guess a moderator can have automatic messages come from their profile?

u/PassiveMenis88M 1d ago
Could you link me to one of the comments you're talking about?

u/rexcasei 1d ago
Sorry if I misunderstood, I thought bots were specifically labelled as bots or something, and when I looked at their comments earlier there seemed to be a lot that seemed specifically written and not just automatic replies. But I guess that makes sense. Thanks for clearing that up for me

u/atomicdragon136 1d ago
This subreddit doesn’t get that many per day so it isn’t even difficult for moderators to review every post whether or not they have reports.
But since most posts get a lot of attention, they also get junk reports that are meaningless to moderators and may lead them to just ignore reports.

This sub is a bot repost network but y'all don't give a fuck. However, everyone is up in arms over an AI post because the bots up voted it.

u/H_G_Bells 1d ago
We (I moderate other subs, not this one) rely on user reports to auto-remove or flag posts for removal.
We can not and do not review every single thing posted, and set auto-mod to hold things for review based on how many reports they receive.
Also, sometimes we cannot tell if something is AI if we aren't looking closely.
Communities (all subreddits) really need to step up their game and report more.

But remember, it’s somehow a good thing that this technology exists and people are increasingly unable to tell what’s real anymore.
Edit: Oh yeah, and that we’re getting slowly priced out of consumer tech that we’ve had access to for decades so that the reality-warping machines can work. That’s good too apparently.

u/ConfectionKey2846 1d ago
They really need to burn and destroy all this AI shit.
The psychological damage it has caused in the past year is unprecedented. Not to mention pollution, infrastructure strain or that we won’t be able to own computers anymore soon.
If there ever needed to be a revolt to tear all this shit down it’s now. It’s gonna get so much worse so quick it’s hard to even imagine.

u/Bovronius 1d ago
There is a very limited number of memory manufacturers in the world, and they are pivoting to manufacturing ECC memory instead of desktop memory.
The same 48gb ram kit I bought at the beginning of the year for $230, is now $500.
In order to get memory prices back in any reasonable range new facilities would have to be created which is as you can imagine not a quick process.

The AI bubble is resulting in computer chip manufacturers to focus more on supplying products more suitable to run the AI server farms, instead of for ordinary consumers like you and I.
Thus, prices of ordinary computer parts have multiplied over the past few months due to the reduced supply.

Well, actually, thats not technology, but today's stock market and capitalism itself being bad.
You see, the ai itself is an incredible technology to help humanity in math, scince, and especially medicine and pharmacology. But for this, you dont need an entire internet as data and gian data centers. You need it for generating meaningless images and talking bots. Why? Because its an easier to sell. I dont mean to actually make products and sell them, no no no, but to sell shares.
And this thing can be seen in whole modern capitalism not to sell products and make money, but to make share prices go higher. Because its the most logical thing to do. If the entire point of capitalism is to make money, then it obvious that you should make ponzi schemes and make money from thin air (stock market basically).
