and his cult fucking loves it, thinking he's playing 4d chess when he can't even understand basic Candyland. Fuck our country for being this gullible, ignorant, and hateful.
A lot of unethical shit isn't going anywhere. Doesn't mean I have to like it. I still decide what I want to see on imgur, what I downvote or upvote, and when to tell people to get the fuck out of here with this crap.
It'd be fucking hilarious to see him have an aneurysm. or a coronary. I don't like thinking bad things about people, but holy shit this asshole and his fanboys, and the hyper wealthy that are encouraging this disgusting behavior so they can hoard up as much wealth as they can, honestly deserve everything that's coming to them, whether it's karma or some pitchforks, or ballistics.
that's where I differ, I do wish harm on these domestic terrorists, violating every portion of the constitution, and not one member of Congress has done enough of anything to flat out deny this flagrantly stripping down everything to make the 1% even wealthier.
Idk I’m torn here. Sure there is not an opportunity for an artist to make the meme because AI already did it, but was that going to happen? I think it’s adjacent to pirating an $80 game that you were never going to buy. It’s not good for the economy or gaming, and it’s sort of stealing, but there is joy in it also.
the only thing analogous here is your justification of it, using ai to generate an image instead of hiring an artist vs pirating a game. I think ai image generation is a mistake for more philosophical humanistic reasons than any object moral ones.
Okay so you've denied my analogy, offered 0 explanation why it isn't valid, and then pivoted to an irrelevant, subjective opinion as a counterpoint? Nice.
Stealing from an enormous corporation is not the same as endorsing an AI model that steals from countless non-wealthy people. And even setting that aside, remember that AI requires a huge amount of power to function, so it's also indefensible from an environmental standpoint.
It is market manipulation, but the orange buffoon may not know that. By his own admittance to the corporate press, he doesn't understand much of what he does. Most likely he's being manipulated by those around him since his cognitive abilities are certainly at a low ebb. Moreover, his loyal magats don't believe it. They only believe what they're told by the convicted felon's regime. So calling him TACO and pointing out that he's chicken is simply mockery. And it's fun.
I sort of understand the downvotes because people don't like being told they don't get it, but you're right. What many see as "chickening out", IMO, was always part of the plan. Announce huge tarrifs and on what day they hit, short a bunch of stocks/buy puts because YOU KNOW that when it hits, markets will plummet, make bigly money on the market's way down, then buy calls and pause the tarrifs. Make money again when the market "recovers". 1/2
He straight up said "A lot of peole are going to make big money off the market" just before he started the tarrifs, and no one batted an eye. I don't give him credit for much, but if there's one thing he knows, it's how to cheat the system. He knew full well how the market would react, and will react again when he does it again. 2/2
Imgur isn't misunderstanding, this was all brought up months ago, but if he makes a public promise and backs down he should be mocked for breaking the promise even if it was (not so quietly) part of the plan because A) he hates criticism and B) it points out his contradictions publicly. It won't change anyone's mind but we shouldn't let such contradictions fade into the background noise and treat them as normal for his office.

So when he serves up one of his bullshit, word salad answers to a question, it's basically a Taco salad?

O that's gotta burn. He hates mockery more than anything.

Trump hates everything that a card-carrying narcissist hates. Mockery, absolutely. Being perceived as a loser? Right up there.

I agree but if upsets the orange one then have at it

Both AI and wrote "chicken" instead of "chickens". Couldn't have put less effort into this, and it still somehow ended up on front page. Meh.

Obviously; however, do we really want to be egging on the moron with an ego more fragile than a 5 foot Churro who has the keys to the worlds economy?

Yeah! You should pay an actual artist to make this meme instead - as was regularly done before AI!
lastmanonearthbutidroppedmyglasses
I don’t care about someone making money off it. But if nobody cared enough to make this, why should I care to look at it?
SlyMrFox
I'd rather have a sloppy collage someone made in GiMP, than AI shit.
ThisNameUnavailable
Some people can't even do that. If you weren't going to pay an artist to do something, it's not taking from them to not use their services.
It's like saying a person who wouldn't have bought a movie, who pirates that movie, is stealing from the movie creators.

Perfect analogy.
If you honestly wouldn't have paid for a movie/tv show, and then pirate it, is that theft?
I would say no.
Same for art. NO ONE would have paid an artist to make this meme.

Not everyone even considers using training data as theft. This is just a baseless statement that anti-AI people latch on to.

Why associate something amazing with something like Trump? #TryHard
MaybeIllDisappear
Making him and his followers throw a little tantrum is worth the sacrifice.
powwerbottom
Because the only thing he hates more than being mocked is food with flavor, from Mexico

Originated on Wall Street. Traders coined this to explain their strategies regarding tariff uncertainty. Taco. Just make the trade.

Why downvote lol

Because Trump hates it.

I think of it more as using something we love to hurt him, making us love it even more.

I should clarify: Fuck Trump, Fuck AI, and Fuck you for posting AI trash.

Do you honestly think ai is going away? Here’s a hint. It isn’t.
Orionsdick
I think it should go away because it looks like garbage, steals from actual artists, and needlessly consumes precious water and energy. https://oecd.ai/en/wonk/how-much-water-does-ai-consume

Yet again, imgur fails to understand market manipulation and profiteering.
