Was hoping for something post-apocalyptic or Fallout. Was not expecting this.

I've seen the occasional nonimage post here and didn't know where else to ask this.

On another forum, a downvoter of things, with apparently support from other accounts, revealed that they are downvoting things 'because they have to do with ai'. I have heard from an admin that they have that same problem here.

But when I look it up and try to find a reference for who they are, the closest thing I come up with is Luddite, which refers to people who generally hate technology. I know antifa people are proudly antifa; same with anarchists. But what is this 'anti ai' type of person that seems to have started cropping up? I asked the person directly, but unknown whether they will respond with an accurate reference.

Reminds me of vehement transphobes specifically joining trans communities so they can downvote things; except instead of polar opposite of lgbtq, it is that equivalent except toward ai, creations of ai, and ai community. Encountered it just today and seeking a term to place on what is apparently 'the enemy' to this exact niche we are in.

I saw the Rusted Hero over at the stable diffusion community and tried a roasted variant on copilot

When i asked it to do it again, but this time the heroes being roasted themselves, it answered that we better change the subject and restarted the prompt...

Had a bunch of odd and funny leftovers from this weeks challenge.

Prompt: EGA pixel drawing, of a medieval wanderer standing on a wooded hill, in the background below can be seen rolling forest hills with a wizard's tower in the distance, a fierce vertical pillar of evil green energy erupts from the tower and pierces the cloudy night's sky, causing stark contrast with the peaceful surroundings --ar 4:3

Prompt: A lemming holding a banner, the banner reads "Lemmy!", illustrated in Yuru-chara style --niji 6

Link to an upscaled version

Prompt: horror movie, over-the-shoulder view of a man taking a bath in foamy water, an alien eye on a tendril pops out from the water, shot on disposable camera, moody lighting --ar 3:2 --stylize 75

Getting an eye on a tentacle is a lot harder than I thought it would be. You often get a tentacle and an eye somewhere, but combining the two seems to be difficult for some reason.

Some of the horrors I've seen while making this image.

She never listens, no matter how many times you tell her she's only making things worse. 🙄
