Proposal for a new emoji to represent Generative AI
@dnorman did you use Generative AI to make that? :-)
@sleslie surprisingly, no! Google's Emoji Kitchen https://www.google.com/search?q=emoji%20kitchen (which I learned of via @kottke )

@sleslie just tried it with DALL-E. I prefer the original.
@dnorman @sleslie I dunno, this is more shit, which is fitting.
@dnorman this is fantastic, we all can appreciate the robocrap ...

@dnorman

AI is just CGI, but cheap and easy.

And just like CGI, as the bar gets raised, but we raise our ability to spot it too.

@dnorman is there a license with that icon?

Can use it in commercial project?

@mxfraud Google built the Emoji Kitchen on their Noto Color Emoji font, which is open source. There should be no restrictions on sharing the image. https://fonts.google.com/noto/specimen/Noto+Color+Emoji
Noto Color Emoji - Google Fonts

Noto Color Emoji is an open source font that has you covered for all your emoji needs, including support for the latest Unicode emoji specification. It features

Google Fonts

@dnorman @mxfraud "open source" doesn't mean "public domain"/"do whatever you want"

It allows use under terms that generally allow for modification and derivative works, but most licenses still have important restrictions (e.g., prominent attribution, patent rights) that may make it unsuitable for some people

To answer the original question, the font itself is under OFL-1.1: https://github.com/fontsource/font-files/blob/main/fonts/google/noto-color-emoji/LICENSE

needs more robber mask?

To explain, D'Arcy Norman has designed an AI emoji, it is a grey robot poo emoji with antenna, grill mouth, addicts red nose, and a robbers mask for stolen IP

@kevinrns
I thought you just added glasses, wouldn't have thought of a robber's mask...

@dnorman

@yaarur @dnorman

D'Arcy Norman is the artist designer.

@dnorman This one kind of works too.
@dnorman It just needs some 'stink lines' coming off of it to drive the point home.
@dnorman with red eyes to give it some The Matrix feelings

@dnorman Wait, isn't that based on the ๐Ÿ’ฉ emoji ? ....

Ohhhhhh.

@dnorman Too trustworthy and friendly looking.
@dnorman It has a nice Piku Niku touch.
@dnorman It should look more like a spy.

@dnorman Kinda hoping you had an LLM spit it out for you.
@dnorman @pluralistic : Use your power to make this happen! Kinda works for #enshitification too!
@dnorman it needs six or seven more fingers, doesn't it?

@dnorman

I move we adopt this as the official symbol for all AI generated content.

I am definitely adding this to my company's slack workspace as :ai:.

Guidelines for Submitting Unicodeยฎ Emoji Proposals

@dnorman I really want this as a sticker to go with the various ones from @daedalus
@dnorman @dnorman This discussion is glorious - I am never going to think about #ShatGPT (thanks Eric) in the same way ever again.
@dnorman Not sure if you're the original creator of this or what, but if so, do you mind if I add this as an emote to my twitch channel?
@dnorman it's kinda badass though, imagining the Death Poo Motorcycle Club
@dnorman Now the main question, was this picture generated by #AI or #HI?
@dnorman I would gladly have it a bit rusty. Itโ€™s kind of an old thing already, after all, and I (like|lack) the brownish colour. :)
@dnorman

I like itโ€ฏ!
โ€‹โ€‹
@dnorman I hope it was ai generated ๐Ÿ˜ญ
@dnorman
This should get emoji of the year ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ
@dnorman surely now that GenAI is now digesting its own output from various sources on the Internet it's now becoming Degenerative AI ?

@dnorman this is actually rather good!

I think there should also be a robot shaped like a heart or a star or something positive though; GenAI can be shit and stellar, like humanity
