The formatting of this joke is divine

Curious

“Yet you use AI to criticize AI. Curious!”

At least they’re honest about it, one small step up I guess
brbposting@sh.itjust.works 5 days ago
100% divine formatting
And this wasn’t ironic was it?:
”ironic, make fun of ai with ai”
If OOP was a miner they might be tired of shovel sellers but loveeee the handful of shovels they already have, including the one that made this comic
samus12345@sh.itjust.works 5 days ago
Using AI to make a stick figure comic is peak laziness.
RagingRobot@lemmy.world 5 days ago
When all you have is a shovel everything you make looks like dirt
ddplf@szmer.info 5 days ago
Nah, aside from the general look&feel - I ain’t seein it. There’s no artifacts as far as I can tell.
thatsTheCatch@lemmy.nz 5 days ago
It says “Made with AI” at the bottom left. It also just looks so AI generated I would’ve bet $50 even if they’re wasn’t the disclaimer
samus12345@sh.itjust.works 5 days ago
“Made with AI” at the bottom aside, you need to brush up on your AI detection skills. There’s plenty of AI weirdness here.

He’s heard of undermining and thinking outside the box

Almost all billboards in the Silicon Valley area are for AI and related services, it really does look like selling shovels to shovel sellers.
Ajen@sh.itjust.works 5 days ago
IMO the Silicon Valley startups are the miners, and companies like Nvidia, Anthropic, and OpenAI are the shovel sellers. And from that perspective there aren’t that many shovel sellers.
AppleTea@lemmy.zip 5 days ago
Goes further up the pike than that. The phrase is “in a gold rush, sell picks and shovels”. The real shovel seller is NVIDIA, with their graphics chips.
Really, this is just an extension of the graphics chip boom crypto started. A lot of “mining” server farms transitioned smoothly into renting server time for AI training. It’s always been the same bubble: overproduction of graphics cards.

A look at San Francisco billboards (“past month” plus “anytime“):
Tabula_stercore@lemmy.world 5 days ago
It’s actually a good analogy, where the shovel manufacturer is Nvidia/semicon industry
anton@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 days ago
They are selling shovel blades and handles, so the shovel sellers can put them together and believe they are providing a unique and valuable product.
MoonlitSanguine@lemmy.zip 5 days ago
Nvidia sells shovels, the people that push AI are the miners.
webadict@lemmy.world 5 days ago
The people that push AI are the mine owners.
modus@lemmy.world 5 days ago
There’s only one shovel in that slop. The rest are all just handles.
mic_check_one_two@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 days ago
samus12345@sh.itjust.works 5 days ago
And the only one with a blade is, ironically, missing a handle.
chiliedogg@lemmy.world 5 days ago
And the handles are on shafts that are long enough you wouldn’t want a handle.
Crozekiel@lemmy.zip 5 days ago
And they didn’t even give it the same handle to show any kind of continuity that might at least allude to all those handles being representative of a shovel… Love the meme making fun of AI has a “Made with AI” badge on it… wtf are we doing?

What is the connection between San Francisco and shovels?
Kolanaki@pawb.social 5 days ago
The California gold rush.

California gold rush
That was 200 years ago, though… Is it still some viral local joke?
Truscape@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 days ago
During the “Gold Rush” era (Wild West 1800s), there were plenty of people descending onto California to try and make their fortunes by staking out land to mine and pan for gold.
However, the first millionaire wasn’t anyone who got lucky staking out a mine. It was the largest store owner in the area selling all these prospective miners their shovels to dig with.
trem@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 days ago
Said first millionaire: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samuel_Brannan
It’s quite wild. He’s also considered the first to publicize that there is a gold rush, much like these modern AI companies hype up their products to no end.
Zwiebel@feddit.org 5 days ago
The actual store owner is nvidia and they make filthy money right now
Drusas@fedia.io 5 days ago
Or Seattle.
endless_nameless@lemmy.world 5 days ago
I was in both cities very recently and Seattle is nowhere near the level of insanity that SF is at.
Drusas@fedia.io 5 days ago
This is about the cities' history.
HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 5 days ago
yes but SF stays insane as an homage to our Emperor

Err, this is dumb as rocks. The shovels would be the hardware.
