I have no interest in seeing AI art either, but complaining about something you can easily and quickly fix by just blocking the community is pretty dumb.
It sounds like there's a community making fun of bad AI images.
If I had to guess it's fuckai, I blocked it a long time ago tho, but they've got like 50 mods and when I got to block someone I keep seeing they mod there.
If you also did the common sense thing and blocked the community a long time ago, you wouldn't see it.
There's also a chance you dont federate with the same instances as OP.
I don't know why, but lots of people tend to think everyone sees the same stuff on Lemmy, there's a lot of variation
Posting large numbers of failed [thing] is adding to thr large number of [thing] being shared. Basic engagement that perpetuates more and more [thing] filling feeds.
Like how a feed complaining about celebrity gossip spam is just perpetuating celebrity gossip spam.
There's a community in which people post examples of an AI image generator messing things up. I think that's what they mean by "ai-images failing". I think they're saying: "you may think that by posting to such a community you are being critical of AI generators, but in fact you're still filling your head with AI noise."
Meh, some of the AI images have actually been pretty cool. They are art in their own way, and anyone who says otherwise doesn't understand "art" to begin with (Anything can technically be art)
I think part of the problem is the volume of it that is just completely uninteresting. You absolutely can do cool stuff with, I agree. It just seems like most people aren't. In the same way that Duchamp managed to do something pretty cool with Fountain, but I would not give the slightest hint of a damn about a collection of other readymade art made in the same quantity and with the same thought as AI outputs
