AI bros have zero self awareness and shame, which is why I continue to encourage that the best tool for fighting against it is making it socially shameful.
Somebody comes along saying "Oh look at the image is just genera..." and you cut them with "looks like absolute garbage right? Yeah, I know, AI always sucks, imagine seriously enjoying that hahah, so anyway, what were you saying?"
Not good enough, you need to poison the data
I don't want my data poisoned, I'd rather just poison the AI bros.
Yeah but then their Facebook accounts will keep producing slop even after they're gone.
Tempting, but even that is not good enough as another reply pointed out
the data eventually poisons itself when it can do nothing but refer to its own output from however many generations of hallucinated data
