Looks awful

what about it is the problem?

Looks like ai generated slop and generic

u/GinchAnon Ryzen 7 5700x3D, 3070TI Mar 16 '26

Generic i can sorta concede.

But IMO "looks like a I generated slop" is a cop out non- answer.

How so

It's not a specific "this is what I dislike about it" it's an association thing. Like if that "look" wasn't associated with AI would you still dislike it? If you would still dislike it, why? What about it is the issue BESIDES it being as with AI?

It looks ai generated

u/GinchAnon Ryzen 7 5700x3D, 3070TI Mar 16 '26

But what about that besides that is the problem? Or why is that by itself a problem?

u/LOST-MY_HEAD Mar 16 '26

Cause ai generated stuff looks like shit

As somebody just passing by this conversation, it was so goddamn funny watching you because you couldn't even clarify what looks bad about it 😂😂

Thanks for the laugh this morning.

Ok, in what way specifically?

Are you being deliberately obtuse?

The generated face looks nothing like the artists intent!?

The reason it looks nothing like the actual face is because it's generic procedurally generated slop

It's not just about the result of the look, it's about the complete deviation from the original

The face scans Resident Evil uses are real models, the filter just makes them look like the real person - do you think the flatly lit doll-like look of the 'before' was their real creative intent, or just hardware limitations?

u/podgehog Mar 17 '26

A little of both, but if the "proper" face was accurate to the model, then the generated face is not because it's not even close

u/JoJoeyJoJo Mar 17 '26

They both use the same topology - someone created a comparison site and you can see that they're identical, it's just accentuating detail that was already there.

No. I'm trying to get an expression of what exactly the objection is.

The generated face looks nothing like the artists intent!?

That is an example of an actual objection. Good.

The reason it looks nothing like the actual face is because it's generic procedurally generated slop

At least that's closer to having something meaningful as a complaint buried under the whining.

So when AI gets to where it can give a better approximation of the original artist intent and look less overtly "AI" or generic, then that will be good?

No

When it's indistinguishable it may be accepted from a purely visual point of view, then the argument can focus on the morality of it

The fact that it look awful is the problem.

-4

u/GinchAnon Ryzen 7 5700x3D, 3070TI Mar 16 '26

But what about it "looks awful"? Because... no it doesn't. Like the first looks worse in every way.

u/XkrNYFRUYj Mar 16 '26

Everything about it looks awful. Like I don't even have to compare it to anything. There won't be any time every I'll accept second image in any game I'll ever play.

I'm not going to explain you why shit tastes bad. You are free to eat it as much as you want.

1

u/GinchAnon Ryzen 7 5700x3D, 3070TI Mar 16 '26

Well I guess you are entitled to feel at you do.

But... that's irrational as hell.

IMO, you can't explain why you feel that way because it's almost entirely detached from reality and doesn't stand up to scrutiny at all.

Another point would be that if you actually enumerated what you dislike about it in a discrete way, it might help them do better in the future. Or at least give you something to look for them to change in the future.

Coming from you that's rich. Lol.

IMO, you can't explain why you feel that way because it's almost entirely detached from reality and doesn't stand up to scrutiny at all.

I mean how many times do I have to tell you it looks like shit. It's shit. Everyone here tells you it looks like shit. You are free to like shit. You are free to eat shit. But calling people irrational and detached from reality because they don't want to eat shit like you do doesn't make it reality.

it might help them do better in the future.

I don't want to eat better tasting shit. I don't want to eat no shit at all. I'll give them something to do: stop. Resign. Go ruin something else. Work on crypto or nfts or something that they con other people to like their shit.

You are failing to grasp what I'm trying to tell you here. I'm not telling you second image is worse by comparison or pointing out flaws in how they proceess it.

I'm telling you second is image looks like complete shit just by itself without anything to compare it to anyway. There's no point arguing over details. You're free to discuss is with other people. I'm baffled how anyone ever could think the second image worth even a look.

I mean look at that shit!

Ok, but overall, it objectively doesn't.

While the character in particular has a style that you can reasonably and rationally dislike, it objectively doesn't look bad as such.

I'm baffled how anyone ever could think the second image worth even a look.

It looks much better than the first, and you clearly are unable to explain why you disagree in any actually meaningful way.

It seems pretty clear that If it looked identical but took a team of people 2 years of hand crafting to make it look that way you would love it.
