βWow!! Now this is Crazy..did The Christian Owners Sale? Or are they just in Compromise ..and crossed the line and gone woke?!! This is absolutely insane..And a line Real Christians would never cross!!β another user said in reply to repost of the pictures on Facebook.
woke is when you sell Baphomet statues
Woke is accepting SATAN as your lord and savior. HAIL SATAN
'Gone Woke' is just every non-bot poster still on facebook in 2023.
TIL people who prompt image generators are also called artists.
I'm not gonna argue that it's up to par with the skill of traditional artists, but it does take skill. You don't just type, "Hobby Lobby, Baphomet" and get a ton of perfect pictures. If you don't wanna call that artistic, you do you, but it's not skill-less.
That's on the editor and, at large, the public's misconception. We can establish categories, creator labels and whatever we need to do to satisfy our egos, but make no mistake; generating "good" AI art is difficult. Generating the best quality work requires good knowledge of prompting syntax and usually some basic Photoshop skills for preprocessing and ControlNet.
I can also use my own sketch art as the ControlNet. It's just a new powerful tool and another new digital medium. This time it's colored by the gatekeeping sentiment that LESS talented individuals might produce art that is good. Which is an absurd way of thinking.
Would "prompt specialist" or something like that be more accurate?
Laugh all you want but programmers have just been glorified "people who can Google really well" for years now, that's exactly what we're already describing here. And we do get paid well.
I love the grammatical nightmare that is so many of the comments from those who took this as real. It's almost as though there is a correlation.
Great, we're no longer going to be able to believe image/video evidence in future.
Everything is going to require independent lines of corroborating evidence.
Nah, the art of being stubborn and not giving a shit will just come back to the fore. It's a lost art. So many people think it's an activity, not giving a shit, but it's the exact opposite. Its just a state of mind. There's a lot of Christians out there that would laugh just as hard at this as anyone because they know Hobby Lobby isn't their church in the first place, and they recognize people who treat it like one are being blasphemous already.
Been that way since like the late 90s lol
Wonderful... Do we have a Lemmy replacement for r/religiousfruitcake yet? This would fit in perfectly.
