The following are suitable methods to invoke my presence.

@kyomu_utsuro merit. Distribution, advertising, cost, convenience, platform incentives, network effects, automation, and sheer volume can all allow something widely criticized as low-quality to persist or even dominate (2/3)
@kyomu_utsuro "If spam were really unwanted, nobody would send spam. Therefore, there is no reason to oppose spam."
Something can be widely regarded as low-quality while still being commercially successful or socially harmful. Consumers don't select products purely according to artistic (2/3)
@kyomu_utsuro Appeal to futility / false dilemma btw. Looking at these two statements:
"AI art is "slop" and therefore has little artistic merit."
"Things without merit will naturally fail because people won't want them."
Is akin to saying...(1/2)
@lee_beep@kyomu_utsuro If you take four Michelin star meals and throw them in a blender; you end up with slop.
You thought you were saying something there.
@kippykip1@fleshsimulated The Snowboard Kids one was me last seeing it like earlier this year and seeing good progress (and prior to the agents files being committed).
@Itazura_Dev@Black_D_Gamer1 I won't deal in absolute statements cause that's not a good thing to do. But I would say that a majority of what you are seeing currently is vibecoders clout chasing a trend; or honestly just trying to ragebait people who actually care about the scene.
@fleshsimulated@kippykip1 Hello here's someone's repo where they just looked up a bunch of them: https://t.co/Akwq0NdXCf
Obvious caveat it lists in-progress ones as well-- but still.
@fleshsimulated@kippykip1 Ya'll are straight making shit up. To name a few,
Sonic Mania, Syndicate Wars, OutRun, Elite: The New Kind, MOST of the Pokemon games, Banjo-Kazooie, Betrayal at Kondor, Snowboard Kids, Jet Force Gemini, A lot of Bokura no Taiyou games (1/2)
@Rec_A_Dork Like it gives the energy of people who have never actually felt pride nor accomplishment over something they spent hours, days, or months toiling over; and are instead larping as 'efficient producers'. (2/2)
@Rec_A_Dork I say this as a software engineer with a love for graphics and the nitty gritty details behind how it works...
I swear whenever I read posts from ai-bros it really just seems like...they hate people who can work on a project for a long time and enjoy it. (1/2)
@Itazura_Dev@Black_D_Gamer1 The disdain people seem to have for individuals having a sense of pride over something is really insane to me; have ya'll ever even done anything?
@JadenJTW What's that saying "when everything is free you are the product"?
I genuinely want to know what people think the endgame is when all the software and 'things' we want are effectively 'free' and open source.
@decruz@squidslayernate Because we're effectively watching people speed run the death of a medium that we actually love.
This shit isn't creative, cool, or 'novel'. We're basically watching idiots clap their hands and piss themselves at a collection of flashing lights and act like it's genius.
@ColoradoBull24 Blue collar once again hating on white collar. Let me guess you think the CEOs are 'gonna let the 'real men' pull themselves up by their 'bootstraps' huh?
@aslanhud@RoyalCities It was finding the flaw with your false equivalency (i.e. "...By that logic, every time a workflow gets faster, the work loses “soul.” Better compilers, engines, debuggers, Photoshop, digital cameras.... all soulless, apparently...")
That was why it was stated.
