I appreciate this commentary on AI slop, but I think it's missing something.

I saw THIS EXACT image slopped around, and I asked someone who shared it if she knew it was fake. She didn't, but recognized it IMMEDIATELY when it was pointed out.

And didn't care. She did NOT CARE that the image was fake. She FELT it represented her views.
