My friend went to a tattoo artist...

Described the tattoo he wanted - Sisyphus pushing a rock up a mountain...

...found out afterwards that the tattoo artist USED FUCKING AI TO GENERATE THE IMAGE!!!!

You know how he found out?

What is AI notoriously bad at?

Can you see the giveaway in the image?

This picture is *not* AI generated... It was taken by a proud tattoo artist who hadn't even checked over the AI generated image to make sure it was good.

@tinker Umm, why did your friend not check the art before it went on his arm? Like Im not absolving the asshole tattoo artist but, yikes, always verify and approve shit.

@tinker tattooing is _not_ a fast process. I feel like there was ample opportunity for the “artist” here to notice this.

@tinker this is the equivalent of copy-pasting an llm output, but actually slowly pasting it letter by letter. If there is someone to blame here, I'm afraid is not AI

@tinker AI must cook people's brains because like, didn't the artist even notice that they were drawing six fingers on someone?

It's like we're losing our ability to be thoughtful or intentional in what we do.
