      What effort? I can open gemini and type “give me a shitpost meme about being angry for something random, you pick” and get a picture. I don’t even have to think about what it would be. The part that requires the most effort is copy/pasting it here.

        “shitpost meme about being angry for something random” given to shitty SDXL. Required zero effort and also zero quality. Just to prove cley_faye’s point

          There are plenty of tool for that. And, for that matter, “making an account” for gemini means having used gmail/youtube/anything vaguely google related in the last ten years. I’m pretty sure lazy people are already there.

            But that would still mean there was some effort involved at some point, which is not enough for “no effort”

            A text post would require less effort, but its still not 0

      I dick around with AI images, I can tell you there’s absofukinglutely no effort being put into it. A bit of typing, enough time to pack, smoke a bong and have a coughing fit and bam stupid pointless image.

        Very little effort is not 0 effort

        Finding the least effort for making a post possible is not so easy a question to answer

          Well, copying and pasting someone else’s shitpost is probably the lowest effort you could do, besides telling someone else to do it. AI is barely above copying and pasting so it fits within the accepted level of effort for shitposting, it meets every criteria, no where does it say shitposts have to be OG content, so AI shitposts are shitposts and shit posts, much like half the shit posts on this shitposting shit post.

            Wouldnt text posts require less effort?

            This is the ultimate shitpost, not some really low effort post that would have room for extra effort

              You’re putting in more effort to defend your absolutely shit hot take then it does to create any of these AI images. What the fuck are you babbling about?

              Copy and pasted text posts would be least effort, you can do that one handed with barely any movement.

                  Fuck it, why not a bank post. I think we’ve done it, we solved the shitpost conundrum! But AI images are still shitposts.
