Since I can’t draw, but I still have ideas, this seemed like the best way. ADHDinos is basically like the same 3 images over and over and no one seems to mind that. Plus, I shudder at the thought of trying to vector trace all those pangolin scales. I’m glad you liked it though.
Everyone can draw. You mean that you aren’t practiced yet, which is perfectly fine and everyone starts that way. If you want to make comics, then make comics. Don’t waste time and energy on AI slop that doesn’t bring the same meaning as something a person made, however inexperienced they may be.
THANK YOU SO MUCH. I was honestly hoping the Lemmy anti-AI knee-jerk responses would not have bled over into this community, but clearly that hope was in vain.
Homie you’re gonna face that everywhere, not just Lemmy. GenAI is built on the intellectual property theft of thousands of artists. Nobody is going to applaud you for taking an unethical shortcut.
Just draw some doodles, you have enough talent to draw some simple characters, you’ll get better over time and I am sure you’ll have more fun doing it. Think of all the rage-comics 15 years ago, all trash level ms-paint art, massive and long lasting impact on pop-culture. Talent isn’t required for memes, just ideas!
Just ignore the anti AI dumbasses and keep doing what you’re doing. This is literally one of the best use cases for AI - to allow people to explore their creativity in the avenue of their choice.
it’s not exploring shit though, you aren’t learning how to make art by having an AI generate it for you. OP is exactly where they were before they “made” it, still as unable to create art as before, not a single tiny step forward.
You don’t have to vector trace. Just try your best freehand with simple shapes and get better over time. A lot of digital drawing software has pen smoothing and you can adjust the paths after the fact if you use Inkscape/Illustrator.
I was going to say I don’t have the desire to devote the time it would take, but then I realized: I have never tried drawing digitally before. And I totally already have everything I need to do it. And now I am intrigued.
I’m not a fan of AI but I did like your comic premise.

Quit being mean for no reason.
quit killing the planet for memes. i think thats a pretty damn good reason.

If Dinosaur Comics can write utterly classic comics using the same exact clipart every time, you can do it too.

Reality check: Most people DGAF. Check out the upvotes on the post to see how many people care.
Look at the ratio between our two comments.

How…do I do that exactly 🤷♂️

XKCD is literally stick figures, for example, and has more or less remained stick figures since its inception.
This got me thinking… Is there a place on Lemmy where you can post an idea, and others collaborate to improve it?
Like a drawing, or like other stuff?
Like when you have a joke in mind but can’t draw it, or when you write a song but can’t get the melody right, and so on.
This sounds like a great idea

nobodys memes are worth the energy use required to generate this visual slop
The author is exploring their comedian skills, not their drawing skills.
clearly they want their comedian skill to be supported by an image of sorts, or they’d just write text
it seems to me they got that.

do it!! im serious!! learn to appreciate the hard work of creativity! it’s a labor of love. your machines will not help you grow.
i deeply regret having used AI after experiencing the magic that is creation
