Pass it on!
@beyondmachines1
upscaling algorithms should be called PISS (Programmatically Interpolating Scaling System)
@beyondmachines1 Fully endorse this idea, but the acronym should be left out for marketing purposes. 😜
@beyondmachines1 works for Computer-Rendered Artificial Programming too!
@beyondmachines1 Images? Yes. Art? No. Art, by its very definition, cannot be created by a machine.
@ghostinthenet @beyondmachines1
I went to college in the late 90s and early aughts working on a degree in Digital Imaging Technology (basically graphic design). Your comment just made me think of that.
@beyondmachines1 what kind of soil is being fertilized here, ai wonder ..
@beyondmachines1 I am getting failed etsy shop and still bitter about it vibes, lol.
@beyondmachines1 As much as I find this funny and very well deserved, I might have a problem with the word "rendered", as this description can fit pictures made with 3D software (like blender for example). I think "generated" would be a better fit, but it ruins the initial intent.
Or maybe "regurgitated" could work ? :)

@devtest @beyondmachines1

Exactly this!

There are many better fitting backronyms and the like, even (AI) FArt for Fake Art seems a better choice.

@beyondmachines1 I'm going to stick with 'slop' because when I spend a week building models, making textures, and setting cameras and lights, I'm awfully glad there's a computer there to render it for me.

Heh, I can tell that the alt text was generated by #Tesseract ;)

| am starting a petition to no longer refer to Al "art" as Al art but instead as
Computer-Rendered Artificial Pictures (CRAP).
Pass it on.

I -> |
AI -> Al

Props for not using a CRAP generator for it! XD

@beyondmachines1 in my typography class in college, we were taught about CRAP, but we were told it stood for Contrast Repetition Alignment Proximity.
@beyondmachines1 - and the Amateurs using AI as Fartists.
@beyondmachines1 What about Synthetic Heuristic Image Technology (SHIT) or Picture-Oriented Object (POO)?

Edit: Add Synthetic Lousy Obliterated Picture (SLOP, w/ Blake) to the list.
@beyondmachines1 can we collectively refer to AI itself as Modern Language Mimics (MLMs) too? MLMs always sell CRAP anyways. It all fits.
@beyondmachines1
SLOP = SLyly Obtained Pixels
@ozone89 @VeroniqueB99 possibly, i found it on a FB group posted anonymously 🤷‍♂️
@beyondmachines1 the nice thing is this also works for computer rendered artificial programs.
