AIBU.... This image deserves to be seen....

[Rudicoolcat]

I came across the image this morning and haven't been able to stop thinking about it and admiring the woman the artist created. So many powerful feelings with not enough words.... amongst them warrior, survivor, leader, brave, wise, blooded, alive....you get the meaning.

Just wanted to share with you all ❤️

Shuddering at the mawkish sentimentality. Warrior, survivor, leader, brave, wise, blooded, alive. I mean, really? Give your head a wobble, OP.

I'm pretty sure the op is AI generated too.

There aren't many images of older women around which break the stereotypes you normally see

You don’t think that’s a stereotype?

Is this your own AI generated artwork by any chance OP

That is awful. Really shockingly bad.

Beat me to it

I get that it's probably AI generated.

Is it meant to be Quentin Crisp?

Stick a beret on her bonce and it's Frank Spencer joining his local am dram group!

Quentin Crisp and Frank Spencer. 😂

She's probably just wondering what to cook for dinner.

Some actual women will have had their work plagiarised to create this fake woman that the op so admires.

Cool. An AI generated image of a Game if Thrones character, I believe.

Thank you for bringing this slop to our attention.

I do not feel the power...i find it grosse.
Imagine her on a bad day!

That isn’t art in my opinion.

Don't be silly, its ai shite.

naff. About as subtle as a sledgehammer.

Not far off

She hasn’t mentioned the artist?

Who is it, not anyone I recognise. Just a generic person?

Well she's going to struggle with her arms blown up

That article doesn't say anything about how much water a single prompt/image generation uses. It's talking about the impact of datacentres as a whole. It would be like looking at how much water a dairy farm uses in an entire year and then suggesting someone is wasting that amount of water when they eat one piece of cheese.

Your estimate is vastly vastly off. I won't say AI has no environmental impact as it clearly has, but single prompts are thought to use more like in the region of 25ml. You'll get varying estimates based on what someone is using as their definition of a "prompt" and I couldn't tell TBH whether this study was looking at one text input or a full conversation, but even if you assume one line of text plus took the most extreme suggestion that image generation can use "up to 1000x more" that would still be 25L water. A couple of buckets' worth, not a couple of swimming pools.

Yes we should talk about the environmental impact of AI but let's keep it in perspective.

Not per prompt! A single prompt uses about 25ml of water. Using the internet full stop uses water.
