    I do feel like AI art has entered the boomer stage of the hype cycle, as in Trump et al use it prominently, so the kids start to think, it’s

    cringe.

    But I also feel like the blog post conflates two aspects. It’s not just about AI art, it’s also about every goddamn brainfart being turned into AI art.
    No one needs to see a t-rex giving a thumbs-up or similar.

    That’s what people are tired of, for sure. In the before times, the person would’ve chuckled at the thought and then forgotten about it. It took long enough to create an image of it, that they had time to realize that no one cares.
    That barrier is now removed, so you definitely see posts online with just the dumbest brainfart turned into pixels.
