Well, for starters the billboard is only about 15’ tall and goes over the road. That’s not normal. Everything has a odd inconsistent blurry look to it and all of the smaller text is distorted and illegible.
Finally, the details on… well everything are wrong. Why does the white truck in the foreground have one giant door with a handle in the middle and a second handle on the truckbed? What is the traffic flow in this image? How many lanes does the road have? Why are all the lamps on the top of the billboard pointed so weirdly? What sort of neighborhood is this in?
To the extent that the billboard never existed while the image implies it did – sure.
I love the term ‘slop’. It’s one of my favorite new words along with ‘nontent’.
But this, to me, isn’t that. I think of slop as ‘unrequested, unconvincing, lazy, and lifeless’. In short, ineffective and unwelcome.
I feel like this meme gets the message across. It’s not great, but it’s not terrible. The AI tells are subtle enough: the multi lane pileup in the background and some poor small size text rendering.
Not sure why I felt the need to write this. Guess I’m of the opinion that just because something is AI-generated doesn’t mean it should be discounted immediately, unless it really feels like zero effort went into it. Have a nice day!
Yeah, I feel like there isn’t much of a difference between taking an existing picture and editing the text into it or using AI to generate a picture and editing the text into it.
Because I think the text looks way too good to be done by AI.
I’m fairly certain the text is AI generated too, just because of the questionable “creative” decisions that I don’t think a human would make (why does some of the text have overlines? why is only the Canada line red? why are all the lines jarringly different font sizes?)
plus, now that I zoom in, one of the colons has different sizes for the top and bottom dots. I guess GANs can just do text now
AI slop.
How can you tell? (serious question)

I did not pay attention, dang.
I was thinking there were way too many lamps above that billboard but I don’t know what highway billboards look like, they seem like a US thing.
But the oddly placed handles and doors are a surefire way to tell this is AI, I should look out better for those things!

that was close, almost upvoted.
I mean the message is good, but the medium is, well slop.
