I decided to go onto Craiyon to generate some images based on prompts I thought would be funny.
Most of them were related to batman fighting reddit sjws because I thought it would make some badass images.
While doing these prompts I discovered something pretty fascinating.
iirc a few years ago If you generated images with craiyon based on any prompt relating to a reddit moderator you would get an obese character because people would often make fun of reddit and discord mods online very frequently and obviously the ai is fed this information based on online images related to it.
They later removed any form of generation of fat bald or bearded reddit users or moderators. Instead it would just generate a normal looking person or something unrelated or just the reddit logo.
When attempting to do a prompt like I did today, I discovered 2 things
Obviously shitposts relating to r/batmanarkham and aslume related memes pregnant batman or joker, man, officer bald, etc.
Donald Trump would appear for no reason No matter what they prompt was, even though Donald Trump is never mentioned at all he will appear if reddit is in that prompt. Sometimes even nazi stuff appears with trump but it's rare.
This made me realize how much worse this platform has gotten.
Reddit has become such an echo chamber for Trump Derangement Syndrome and extreme leftism appearing in literally everything on the platform even if completely unrelated to politics in the slightest bit that the AI is literally getting fed this information from text to images that a lot of prompts with reddit involved always has what these people are saying because it's an overwhelming amount of likely above billions of TDS related comments and posts.
Something I saw but not as overwhelming in results was kamala harris or rainbows in a toilet or the same random black guy with short hair and a goatie showing up under inspirations for the prompt "reddit user taking a shower" while it was still generating... I wish I was making this up. If anyone can tell me who he is please do it's actually kinda funny.
I'm honestly very concerned now and I'm wondering if this has only happened to me so far or if this has happened to others and they noticed as well.
If you can please test this out and let me know down below to check if this is a one off thing or not.
I figured this would be the best subreddit even if its mainly for movie and game media to discuss this even if it's basically discussing woke appearing in ai slop. I doubt there's many places to even discuss this because of the way reddit is in general.
There's so many unhinged ranting people online that it's actually affecting the internet as a whole especially bots and ai fed all this information. We already have chat bots like the dead internet theory is about but I likely found another part of the dead internet stuff that people aren't talking about as well.
