AI slop and mindless nationalism, what a natural combination
- True maple syrup homies pay Canadian artists.
- Really didn’t expect this to be so controversial. It’s just a sticker I made to use as an emoji.
  You must be lots of fun at parties. At least you’re true to your name
  
  Your post is:
  Not interesting
  Not conducive to discussion
  Not made by a human
  You have made a generic statement with a very generic, generated image. You have not contributed anything to this community.
  On top of that, there are valid ethical concerns regarding AI image generation, specifically about the training data being stolen content with no attribution or compensation with no regards for licensing, and the technology being used to put artists out of work in favour of cheap-looking, uncanny valley pictures.
  LLMs can be trained ethically (though the vast majority aren't), but it's most likely impossible to ethically train text to image models due to the large amount of data required.
  Additionally, commercially run AI models waste an enormous amount of power, and all money invested into these models goes directly into the pockets of American giants and their wealthy owners.
  
  It’s an emoji. Do you feel this strongly about all emojis?
  
  Re-read my reply. Your answer is in there.

  If you're not getting paid by the LPC, stop working for free.
