I mean, if it's some attempt at a passion project I guess it could be? But I'm usually just letting my GPU churn out cool wallpapers or character art in the background while I watch YouTube. There's no real soul going into it, but I'm not pretending to put in any, either.

I've always explained it like this:

Every time you press that button, you'll get an image. Maybe even a really good image. But it will never be the image you had in mind.

The only way I can see to do it is either stripping long-standing free functionality from other users, or making it completely pointless.

There have been a couple of these, though this one is new to me!

It always makes me sad that they never seem to gain much traction. It seems like disconnected from a larger platform (and potentially the exclusive time window?) they never draw many users.

Just like r/place 😎

Can you elaborate on this?

r/place was special enough to me that it was the only reason I stopped at deleting my content, instead of full-on deleting my account.

It just feels so hollow this year. Not sure if its all the anger, the clear repetition for corporate motives, or both.

Notably, the blobs all appear at seemingly the exact same time. Just... plonk, a random patch of noise on the art.

I might could live with repetitive if it wasn't for the anger. I've got a 2'x2' print of 2022's canvas sitting next to my desk, and I still get lost in it every now and then. Just another trip exploring a new canvas could be fun.

But then I open the page and 15% of it is just "fuck spez" and everyone is angry. Rightfully so, but... I just don't feel it anymore.

I think it felt fine in 2022, the five year gap was long enough. But this year... it just feels hollow to me. Can't tell if that's from repetition or just me being burnt out on Reddit, or both.

Hey, it can be fire. Not exactly the same scenario, but 3015-era Battletech and lostech is dope as hell.

Nothing about that looks like AI to me, beyond the uncanny valley feeling and the eerie lighting. The wallpaper and tile alone would be a big headache to get that consistent, especially with the mirror there. Same goes for the pattern on the clothes and the anatomy (hands, anyone?).
