90. It isn't stalking you to notice you've started posting AI slop. I pointed out to you yesterday that when you

post in reply to my OP here, I will reply.

So you posted more AI slop here today and accused me of stalking you when I responded.

You posted one of your AI images in this thread I posted Wednesday about how dangerous AI is

and I posted this reply

7. Please don't post AI art here. It's part of the problem with this unethical, flawed tech.

and you self-deleted that, but then apparently decided it would be fun to bait me here.

I didn't attack you, Goonch, when I saw you taken in by a chatbot's misinformation and post it in a thread started by someons else, whom I'd already given the correct answer to, with links providing more information for them. I know chatbots can sound authoritative. That's why their answers have to be checked.

And I know using genAI to have AI generate an image for you can seem tempting.

But I know what it's trained on, and I've met too many people it's hurt, some close to suicide, to think it's harmless.

I also know what real creativity is, and genAI isn't real creativity.

I like seeing real art from people. When I see genAI, it's like looking at something assembled from the bones of real artists killed off by that tech. There probably have been suicides already. There have been students abandoning art majors and dreams of careers as artists. That's tragic.

I'm sorry you're partially blind. But if you can see well enough to use AI to generate images, or to select other images to post as you have, you can see well enough to create your own artwork, rather than what an AI patches together for you from other artists' stolen work.

I'd be interested in seeing that. I'd be more impressed by that, even a rough sketch, than lots of images you ask an AI tool to make for you.

And from what I know of art and artists, and I've known a lot of artists, it would be more rewarding for you, too.

But if you are insistent on using AI to create images, you can, as I said, find places on the internet where that stuff is welcome.
