    This doesn't even look like Roman armour, it looks like some techno-feudal samurai shit. It looks like a Skyrim mod

      i'm always interested to see how an artist extrapolates the elements of pre-plate armor cultures into a theoretical plate design, but if this ai shit ass shit was supposed to look 'roman' there aint shit here. slap some pteruges on it at least

        Current models can do armor that while not historically accurate could at least be taken for a Roman by layman. This here is not only made by someone really lazy with his prompts but those prompts most likely didn't even included the word "Roman".

            I'm just wondering, how it is that AI is able to do elon musk but was never able to do Lenin and recently even Stalin (it used to be but not anymore), if it's trained on pictures in the net, there is shitton of it and Lenin nowhere look even remotely similar to what AI is cooking, and furthermore the AI is pretty consistent with the bulldog face, where do this came from?

              The AI trains itself on more commonly used prompts I believe. So a figure like Musk, who probably has a network of PCs devoted to making AI art of himself 24/7, gets more accurate results than someone like Lenin, who there aren't a lot of photos of, relatively at least. I think AI art also struggles to tell the difference between a picture and a photo, so there is a lot of actual art of Lenin, which the AI tries to use as well as photos.

              I'm just spitballing here though, I don't really know.

                Maybe but again, ever since the first models become publicly available Lenin always look like this:

                Show
                Show

                Which don't look like basically any popular art of Lenin i ever seen before, 90% of Lenin on internet is the same few of most popular photos so logically speaking AI Lenin should look like on them.

                Also Stalin. Last year or so AI could do passable Stalin, for example:

                Show

                But currently i usually get someone looking more like Ludendorf. And the situation with Stalin is similar like Lenin, 90% of him is also the few popular photos.

      There is an explanation, though. Bogs in Britain are much more sterile than in the Mediterranean due to their pH content. In fact they can preserve bodies from tens of thousands of years. For the Romans who couldn't have possibly known that and associate swamps and bogs with infection and disease, seeing people cooling down in them must have been extremely off-putting.

    If I had that kind of wealth, and I wasn't into redistribution, I'd have a personal chef, trainer, and physiotherapist. I'd actually be extremely well fed and fit. What's wrong with these people where they don't even try and enjoy the most basic human joys. Exercise and food.

          You know how quitting alcohol all at once after years of heavy drinking can actually kill you? That's how I imagine it is for gaining self-awareness. I think there comes a point of being so embarassing that growing out of it is actually dangerous, because at any moment you might remember and cringe so hard you shatter like porcelain.

      Biden's Superbowl tweet getting more likes than Elon pissed him off so much that he left the Superbowl, went straight to Twitter HQ, called in a bunch of engineers (Sunday night remember), and made them change the algorithm so that his own personal account would be more popular than the official account of the president.

      He has to be the most fragile man in the world

    More serious take: With the decline of the new Roman empire slowly starting to become obvious even to the broader, less educated masses, its leaders increasingly escape to the fantasy aesthetics of the old Roman Empire. mattjak

    For bonus cringe zoom into his right shoulder, there's a water mark there for a twitter handle. So someone made this obviously AI generated thing and Musk reposted it. Real curious what else that twitter handle is posting but I don't have twitter and I'm not that curious. Throwing it out into the world to see if someone else wants to.
