Low quality, spam, unethical
First two I definitely agree on, it does result in low-quality, low-effort spam, since they can be generated easily and people often post it automatically for a bigger boost.
Last one really does depend. Open.ai and the like absolutely are. Community driven open source projects, not so much. Actually I really admire and appreciate the work that @[email protected] has been doing with the AI-horde. It's actually pretty amazing. Especially their CSAM defense system, which really can be beneficial for Fediverse admins to clear out potentially harmful content from their pict-rs database without having to see and experience it themselves.
depends, nope, depends
Bruh why bother asking if you're just gonna "nu-uh" the response
i already had a decent reply from the mod.
"nu-uh" was enough for the knee jerk reply above.
See for yourself if they're low quality โ [email protected]
I can agree that some of them, especially the more well crafted ones can be great quality. As an example here's one of the samples I generated for the icon of the future AI dragons community.

Though unfortunately the same cannot be said for most of them. I should know since I've reviewed quite a few of them on AI Horde, mostly for the points but also because it can show you what people are generating. There were a decent number of good ones coming through, but a lot were extremely malformed and some were even just noise. And that translates to people posting a lot of funky and messed up ones.
i like "funky and messed up" but i had this one for this group before reading the 1st rule
simple but correct :
Even these are still much better quality than a lot of the stuff I've seen in the review area. A lot of which is basically unrecognizable, one of them I saw seemed like it was trying to make an animal of some kind but it was so malformed I couldn't tell what it was supposed to be, or if the things in the background were supposed to be trees, buildings, or mountains.
He wanted to understand why, that doesn't mean he can't point out if it is wrong, or situationally dependent.
