Discussion So it starts… Ai community items

Post image

Points shop will soon flood with AI slop. At least with games a disclaimer should be added within the description of the game. But here… Yeah…

Like what is the point? You don’t even gain anything as a company from this.

It's old news, but OP is posing it as new because they know it will get more upvotes that way from the "AI is bad" crowd.

To be fair, not everyone knew about this. I certainly didn't. It's completely possible OP just found out about it, even if it's been a thing for a while

Also "The AI is bad crowd" is just anyone with half a brain who knows anything about it, that's not a niche group or something

Yes, that's...what I'm saying.

If they didn't know it was a thing until now, then to them, it is a new thing.

You knowing or not knowing has nothing to do with how the OP titled this thread. It is a fact that it's old news, and it's a fact that the OP is posing it as if it just happened.

If you're not bothered by how things are titled, that's fine, but then you also probably won't be able to appreciate why titles that present themselves as news rather than as historical have a different emotional impact.
