This is the best AI anything ever.

[-] Snapz@lemmy.world 37 points 2 weeks ago

Remember remember!

The 4th of December

A CEO dies all alone;

On the street he was lain,

cold, pale and in pain,

thousands of deaths that he own.

The decisions he'd struck,

Layers removed from the slaughter,

Were a shareholder's treat,

Your dead mother or daughter.

Those investors all wait, on that cold winter morn,

Still unawares of profit potential they'd mourn,

Poking at hotel breakfast, bored looks on their face

As was Brian's when he denied and delayed at great pace

Endless growth, deposed, on behalf of us all

Luigi didn't do it, we were hiking in Nepal.

[-] FordBeeblebrox@lemmy.world 13 points 2 weeks ago

This is wonderful and can confirm, Luigi told me he was going on a trip to Nepal and didn’t know what to wear.

[-] meyotch@slrpnk.net 5 points 2 weeks ago

I have a little outfit Id like to see him in.

[-] Grandwolf319@sh.itjust.works 32 points 2 weeks ago

Now this is a use case of AI I can appreciate!

[-] Geobloke@lemm.ee 28 points 2 weeks ago

This is testing my Kinsey scale

[-] josefo@leminal.space 26 points 2 weeks ago

I got some Harry Potter newspaper vibes from this, I being animated was totally unexpected.

[-] Kit@lemmy.blahaj.zone 25 points 2 weeks ago

Be still my heart.

[-] sepi@piefed.social 21 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

That damn smile

[-] iAmTheTot@sh.itjust.works 20 points 2 weeks ago

Very ironic in my opinion to use AI to celebrate this guy.

[-] Doom@ttrpg.network 16 points 2 weeks ago
[-] riplin@lemm.ee 21 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Because United Health Care is using AI to deny claims.

[-] Alwaysnownevernotme@lemmy.world 38 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Yea the cops identified him using pictures too.

Oh and the media is condemning him with words.

Wow this train of thought really goes places.

[-] capital@lemmy.world 16 points 2 weeks ago

Probably use computers too.

[-] Grandwolf319@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 weeks ago

I’m curious if Luigi would approve.

[-] Railcar8095@lemm.ee 4 points 2 weeks ago

Luigi's ways are inscrutable.

That scared me a bit, last time I saw this picture it wasn't animated I think.

[-] TherapyGary@lemmy.blahaj.zone 19 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

How do people post imgur links in a way that seems to embed the video?

Edit: nvm I think I got it! Lmk if it works on your client though, please! Working on Eternity

[-] kopasz7@sh.itjust.works 12 points 2 weeks ago

Works on Voyager too.

[-] Winged_Hussar@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago

Works on boost

[-] Rhaedas@fedia.io 5 points 2 weeks ago

Many Imgur embeds don't work for me using Mbin. I usually can go to the actual title and click to go to Imgur and see it though. Here it had a "api.imgur.com=" added to the front that broke it, but I was able to pull out the actual URL and see it.

[-] TherapyGary@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 weeks ago

I wonder if you're seeing the old version of this post before I updated it, as I originally posted an api link but changed it

[-] Rhaedas@fedia.io 3 points 2 weeks ago

Maybe. Hasn't changed for me yet, even in a private browser. Perhaps changes like that are slower to federate.

[-] Zoldyck@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

The GIF also works on Sync.

[-] Zoop@beehaw.org 2 points 2 weeks ago

It works for me in Connect on Android :)

[-] Lemjukes@lemm.ee 12 points 2 weeks ago

Thanks, I hate it.

[-] Zoop@beehaw.org 8 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

I found the original still on @gedogfx's Instagram, here's a direct link to the post: https://www.instagram.com/p/DDr5FrfMl5n/

It looks like they are indeed the original artist :)

[-] TherapyGary@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 2 weeks ago

Awesome thank you for confirming that for me! I hope they like what I've done lol

[-] piracysails@lemm.ee 7 points 2 weeks ago
[-] TherapyGary@lemmy.blahaj.zone 12 points 2 weeks ago

If the way you're accessing Lemmy doesn't give you the option, you can follow the source link and download it directly.

https://i.imgur.com/XzgU9AS.mp4

On mobile, tap the video, then click the three dots that appear in the top right corner of the video, and then the option to download will appear.

[-] Classy@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 weeks ago

I really, really like this image. Can I have it?

[-] BaroqueInMind@lemmy.one 6 points 2 weeks ago

What model or tool was used to make this?

[-] xangadix@lemmy.world 19 points 2 weeks ago
[-] BaroqueInMind@lemmy.one 7 points 2 weeks ago

Ah I'm dumb as fuck lol it's right there! Thank you!

Ew, AI. All my homies Deny, Defend, Depose AI.

[-] satan@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 2 weeks ago

No homie is going to create this without AI, too much effort.

Lefty Memes

4619 readers

An international (English speaking) socialist Lemmy community free of the "ML" influence of instances like lemmy.ml and lemmygrad. This is a place for undogmatic shitposting and memes from a progressive, anti-capitalist and truly anti-imperialist perspective, regardless of specific ideology.

Serious posts, news, and discussion go in c/Socialism.

If you are new to socialism, you can ask questions and find resources over on c/Socialism101.

Please don't forget to help keep this community clean by reporting rule violations, updooting good contributions and downdooting those of low-quality!

Rules

Version without spoilers

0. Only post socialist memes


That refers to funny image macros and means that generally videos and screenshots are not allowed. Exceptions include explicitly humorous and short videos, as well as (social media) screenshots depicting a funny situation, joke, or joke picture relating to socialist movements, theory, societal issues, or political opponents. Examples would be the classic case of humorous Tumblr or Twitter posts/threads. (and no, agitprop text does not count as a meme)


1. Socialist Unity in the form of mutual respect and good faith interactions is enforced here


Try to keep an open mind, other schools of thought may offer points of view and analyses you haven't considered yet. Also: This is not a place for the Idealism vs. Materialism or rather Anarchism vs. Marxism debate(s), for that please visit c/AnarchismVsMarxism.


2. Anti-Imperialism means recognizing capitalist states like Russia and China as such


That means condemning (their) imperialism, even if it is of the "anti-USA" flavor.


3. No liberalism, (right-wing) revisionism or reactionaries.


That includes so called: Social Democracy, Democratic Socialism, Dengism, Market Socialism, Patriotic Socialism, National Bolshevism, Anarcho-Capitalism etc. . Anti-Socialist people and content have no place here, as well as the variety of "Marxist"-"Leninists" seen on lemmygrad and more specifically GenZedong (actual ML's are welcome as long as they agree to the rules and don't just copy paste/larp about stuff from a hundred years ago).


4. No Bigotry.


The only dangerous minority is the rich.


5. Don't demonize previous and current socialist experiments or (leading) individuals.


We must constructively learn from their mistakes, while acknowledging their achievements and recognizing when they have strayed away from socialist principles.

(if you are reading the rules to apply for modding this community, mention "Mantic Minotaur" when answering question 2)


6. Don't idolize/glorify previous and current socialist experiments or (leading) individuals.


Notable achievements in all spheres of society were made by various socialist/people's/democratic republics around the world. Mistakes, however, were made as well: bureaucratic castes of parasitic elites - as well as reactionary cults of personality - were established, many things were mismanaged and prejudice and bigotry sometimes replaced internationalism and progressiveness.



  1. Absolutely no posts or comments meant to relativize(/apologize for), advocate, promote or defend:
