Would it have made the meme better? This is a pretty clear-cut example where I think it does practically 0 harm to generate a better image. OP isn’t going to hire an artist to draw Marx, and OP doing a shitty job drawing it would certainly add some degree of amateurish charm, but it wouldn’t make the meme better. If we are to be Marxists, as the meme implies, there is no actual benefit to making the meme the way you imply.
What would the difference be in grabbing a stock image of Marx? This meme itself is already an older one reposted. How does the AI image make the meme worse beyond your gut reaction that anything using AI is inherently bad? That seems to be more of a moralistic reason to oppose AI usage than a materialist one.
I’m not saying AI does no harm whatsoever, I just think this case is pretty clearly not that bad of a problem.
Because obsession with whether something is AI or not isn’t my identity, and I have better things to do with my life than to perseverate over it.
Hm obsession isn’t the same as awareness of normalization and the distaste therein.
Nah, it’s definitely obsession coupled with deep rooted narcissism assuming everybody needs to listen to your opinion.
Get ratio’d lol
oh no, not my internet points 🤡
You could make this wothout AI in less than 5 minutes on memegenerator or locally with GIMP

Just cut out a real imagr from the guy and slap it into the meme. Bam bravisimo meme. No AI bullshit used for classconciousness
You didn’t answer my question in any capacity. What would the difference be in grabbing a stock image of Marx?
You seem to have confused me for somebody who cares which tool was used to make a meme.
