This comic was posted to /r/comics. People realized that it was AI art and critices it.
Great. AI art. I visit this sub to see hand-drawn shit, not this garbage.
The OP himself admits that it is AI and compares oposition to it to "racism":
Mods defend the comic saying that there's no rule banning AI art:
They delete the top comments pointing out that it is AI art.

The best AI-generated art is the surreal kind. Bots can generate surreal, dreamlike text and imagery that has a beauty all its own, in ways that no human being could ever create.
I used to absolutely love the bots on Twitter that posted randomly-generated lines of surreal text, like this one and this one. Sadly, however, the really cool Twitter bots seem to have largely disappeared and been replaced by porn bots and cryptocurrency bots.

that's why people need to dream more, there is lots of stuff like that in dreams. a woman once told me while we were looking at some sort of interior mural, with wave-curved bathroom tile walls and parallel lines drawn across them(there were many people, some sort of tourist attraction) that "a stupid person fills in the lines, a stupider person comes along and makes the lines thinner." made sense to me at the time, made sense when i woke up, after 5 minutes though it didn't make sense anymore.

Yeah early neural networking programs and learning algorithms are an alien beauty. You can run them yourself, these days. They're still out there.
I used a modern GPT program to enhance searches for those old, surreal videos, and found this gem a bit back. https://rdrama.net/h/slackernews/post/276825/aicels-remember-your-roots

I miss those old Google Deepdream images where it was trained on a specific object and would transform images where it thought it detected those objects.

There's still good AI art out there that humans can't create, like all those images that look normal but where all the objects form into a recognizable Happy Merchant silhouette, etc

Eh that's not really true. We've done like that stuff for ages. Dali's work is full of that kind of idea.

I'm glad someone else feels this way. All the progress in AI has made it more boring and it's in this kinda useless middle-ground right now. I don't even like the porn.

It's a problem of concepts and composition, which existed in digital art way before the first SD model was released.
Ironically the data that's being "stolen" and fed into the newer models serves to limit their potential since that data is mostly mediocre art made by amateurs.

It takes a lot of effort just because it's funny but take an rdrama comment post or a title and just post an image that was generated from it.
