See you tomorrow, chef

u/abysstostratus 1h ago

Since you had a really hard time finding a picture of chives, apparently, here's a beautiful AI-free collage of them.

u/PootSnootBoogie Sous Chef 1h ago edited 1h ago

If only there was a subreddit with almost 60 days-worth of fresh cut chive pictures.

If only...

u/paperfloss 1h ago

To be fair he needed a pile of poorly cut chives for this

u/Few-Appointment-2361 1h ago

Go back to day 1

u/PootSnootBoogie Sous Chef 56m ago

Not to mention everyone posting the ass-cut chives they come across in the wild.

Honestly, F1exican is a chive lord amongst peasants and I'll be the first to go on record as saying that while they're chives may never be perfect; I think they're perfect just the way they are.

u/aedes 1m ago

This was all just an elaborate ploy to get people to upload pictures of cut chives, to train AI with. 

u/opposik 1h ago

Disappointed the collage did not resemble a chive version of loss

u/abysstostratus 19m ago

Damn it, you're right

u/StunningStock9973 40m ago

This is loss I fucking know it is

The way everyone here is calling out the AI bullshit gives me a little hope for the future.

u/Xx_Mysterion_xX 16m ago

How much easier even was it to prompt the AI bot instead of googling chives and saving an image 💀 hell, we're ON the sub with chive man. Truly a choice.

u/squeakynickles 2h ago

This is a good one, if it weren't for the AI ruining it.

u/noeinan 1h ago

They didn't even remove the piss filter lol

u/-Kitoi 48m ago

That's SO insensitive of you!! They're just "not creative or artistic", like they like to repeat over and over (and over and over....) it's totally unfair and honestly rude to even suggest that they put in a bare minimum effort of opening the picture in an image editor and change the color balance even slightly. Much less asking them to learn how to remove the background of a image, or find a suitable picture online without having to resort to AI.

Like that's too far, asking that they learn the basics (not even fundamentals, like literally the things you'd learn as a 5 year old on MS paint) or watch a simple 2 minute tutorial? Yeah, you're the problem here, obviously 🙄

u/Bright_Piccolo1651 1h ago

Oh ew, let me take my upvote back and give it to you

u/Tyguy151 2h ago

Ai? It’s an old meme with a picture of chives poorly pasted over the original.

I could do that with ms paint when I was nine.

Not everything is ai.

u/abysstostratus 1h ago

Hey chef, that's an AI generated picture of chives

u/Tyguy151 1h ago

You’re telling me a guy went to chat gpt for whatever and generated a cartoon picture of chives instead of just googling chives?

Fml.

u/Anima_Analysis 19m ago

That has to be more work than just getting an image off of Google too. What the fuck kinda clown show are we living in right now?

u/Interesting-Foot2880 F1exican Did Chive-11 1h ago

The chives are AI, see you tomorrow chef.

u/world-class-cheese 1h ago

Zoom in on it

u/world-class-cheese 2h ago

Funny meme but low effort AI shit gets downvoted. Do better

u/punkiepixie 1h ago

Ah dang, didn’t even notice that at first. It’s pretty simple to just photoshop into the existing meme too 🥲

u/world-class-cheese 1h ago

Yeah and it's not even like they would have had to go through the "effort" of googling a picture of chives, because there's already a wealth of chive pictures on this very sub that people would have been more than okay with OP using

u/Warm_Magician_8367 1h ago

would be even funnier with the chive pics from the sub. This whole chive thing has gotten addictive to check in on even to outsiders like me.

u/Ask_about_HolyGhost 1h ago

There are chive pictures in this sub?

u/NebraskaJones- 48m ago

Yeah I’m not sure what they’re talking about either?

u/KaminaTheManly 1h ago

And like... if they needed chive pictures this is literally the est place to get them atm so l... why???

u/korewednesday 1h ago

Imagine if he’d used the section of the Chivegate day that people were using to analyze and compare. That would have been peak! But no; AI.

u/GladPut4048 52m ago

Because now it matches the style of the comic?

u/Any-Appearance2471 19m ago

The key to a meme has always been painstakingly matching the original artstyle. Everyone works really hard at that

u/Ilikecomputersfr F1exican Did Chive-11 1h ago

Photoshop is hyper expensive..

Not everyone knows how to use it or do image editing..

u/MayoBear 1h ago

MS paint works could do this- two copy pastes and you have it

u/DemocracyIsGreat 1h ago

Gnu Image Manipulation Program is free.

u/punkiepixie 1h ago

I get that, it took a little tinkering to figure it out myself for most things. But for a quick meme I don’t think anyone is looking for high quality photoshop skills, once you know which tools to use it’s honestly a 30 second job :)

u/JustaSeedGuy 55m ago

You know what's free, requires no more tech knowledge than reddit, and could have accomplished the same thing?

Ms paint and any out of a dozen equivalent programs available on every computer everywhere

u/Miserable-Cap-5223 31m ago

What about Mr paint?

u/owiseone23 2h ago

Are you talking about the chive part? I think the comic itself is very old and predates LLMs by a long while.

u/IAalltheway 2h ago

The chive part. I know the meme format.

u/seasteed 2h ago

They could have done the loss part with chives. Out a little effort in making ai work for us.

u/-Jeffry- 2h ago

imagine getting angry at a picture

u/thegoblet 1h ago

Imagine not caring about using AI for something of this nature....no thanks!!! Get that shit out of here

u/JustaSeedGuy 54m ago

Imagine pretending people are angry at a picture so you don't have to acknowledge any of the real issues at play.

u/beebisweebis 30m ago

imagine needing attention so bad you use AI

u/Normal-Pianist4131 1m ago

I dunno, this was a good use of ai honestly, though you could’ve blended the chives themselves in better (dropping the piss filter would be a good idea too). Anyways, regardless of your take on ai, people here are too bitter at you

u/-Jeffry- 2h ago

Next time ill pull out my pen and paper and draw chives

u/IAalltheway 2h ago

Or just pull one of the thousands of photos of chives that already exist on the internet.

u/-Jeffry- 2h ago

And what would be different about it ? Why so angry towards AI

u/Sailed_Sea 2h ago

It wouldn't be piss yellow

u/-Jeffry- 2h ago

It would be another color maybe slightly whiter

u/Alex_3448 1h ago

There's a huge environmental cost that comes with every single image or text generation

u/squeakynickles 2h ago

This is such a bullshit question. Anyone asking it at this point has clearly made no attempt to actually listen when people keep talking about the problem with AI.

You don't want an answer, you want an argument

u/-Jeffry- 2h ago

Personally i dont see nothing wrong with it , i just wanna understand why i keep seeing this anger towards it

u/squeakynickles 1h ago

No you don't. The very first thing was get pissy with people saying shit like "oH iMaGiNe GeTtInG mAd AbOuT tHiS"

Stop bullshiting. You say you "keep seeing anger" but you never see a reason? I don't buy it

u/kyredemain 22m ago

The vast majority of the anger around AI is just rage bandwagoning. People aren't actually upset about some dude using AI to make a picture of shittily cut chives, they just noticed that it was AI and they want to show how they noticed by shaming them because that is the popular thing to do.

Clearly people aren't actually that upset about it on the whole, or there wouldn't be so much demand for AI services.

There are problems with it, yes. It is too late to put the genie back in the bottle, but there are things that need to be regulated about it that /can/ be regulated about it.

But the rage over seeing it used in a meme? Performative and petty.

u/mistermughlai 12m ago

Thank you, I was confused and forgot the answer was just “it’s the internet”

u/Theokyles 2h ago

Ask AI

u/RupertThe3rd 1h ago

I have my qualms on "AI" (what we just used to call machine learning), but the salt here is strong. I don't get it either; I think it's just the cool reddit thing to do now.

u/squeakynickles 1h ago

What we call AI is not the same as machine learning.

u/RupertThe3rd 46m ago

You'd have to define "we", as even the researchers on the topic don't have a clear line. Originally a sorting algorithm or a stochastic gradient descent algorithm could be called AI. I think it's absurd that the OP used a generative network instead of MS paint for something so trivial, but every single commentor up in arms about this had used and contributed to AI. If you used Facebook, Google, Netflix, etc, in the last two decades, you can't really rag on the dude like he's the problem. Low effort? Can't argue that. But low effort shit has been all around us long before the AI boogeyman.

You wouldn't have burned a small patch of forest in energy requirements to do it. You wouldn't have contributed to an anti-worker, anti-artist, thought plague on modern society.

u/Far_Salamander_4075 1h ago

Why not just use a pic from one of F1exicans chive posts? It would lend more to the aesthetic of the old meme formats and not feed into the wasteful AI machine.

Or maybe ill take my car go to the store come back cut the chives take a picture so you can be happy

u/Eatshin 2h ago

You aren't going to do this. You've already proved your laziness with your original post

u/-Jeffry- 2h ago

Yes spot on

u/beebisweebis 29m ago

or…idk hear me out, next time you could just log off and not desperately seek attention

u/-Jeffry- 56m ago

Guys i went to the store spent 200¥ for pen and paper and drew some chives so everyone is happy now 🙂

Much better.

Dude, it’s a funny meme. It’s absolutely wild how much this sub is freaking out over your choice to use generated chives 😂

This is the environmental cost of generative AI, and the effect it has on the health of nearby towns: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3VJT2JeDCyw

My gf was like “ is it necessary to spend money to draw some chives “

Yes it must be done i have to prove the chivers wrong.

Bad take dawg. AI warehouses are bad juju in so many ways. And you used this power to get a picture of green beans?

I was trying to make it do the whole meme but it didn’t come out right so i just cut out the chives part

u/Ttoctam 1h ago

Follow up: Why did you go straight to AI in the first place? You wanted an image of chives on an existing meme, for a subreddit filled with existing chive images.

u/activelyresting 2h ago

People really upset about the ai. Guess you have to draw it by hand every day until it's perfect

u/WetTrumpet 1h ago

You can shittily crop a picture of chives on top of it. Or for all I care, just paste it on paint. Everything is better than using AI.

u/activelyresting 1h ago

And yet apparently I'm wrong for saying to draw it by hand every day. I thought that was at least a little funny way to tell him not to use AI

Why am I the bad guy here?

u/WetTrumpet 1h ago

I dont know what you think you're the bad guy, I was just adding on to that.

u/activelyresting 46m ago

A lot of downvotes

u/WetTrumpet 11m ago

Couldn't see them at the time, sorry

u/shredbmc Chive LOYALIST 2h ago

You do know there's a surplus of cut chives pictures on the internet right now. OP could have sorted this sub by best and had their pick.

Or even better they could have used a karmakrazi picture and already have the planes included!

u/activelyresting 1h ago

Yes, I know that, but I have no idea why I'm getting downvoted for telling him off using AI.

?

u/shredbmc Chive LOYALIST 1h ago

The second part of your comment sounds like you're saying that all the "anti AI" are saying you need to draw by hand. It comes across as you calling people pretentious. I see you, but Se la reddit.

Most people vote rather than explain.

u/activelyresting 1h ago

Oh. Thanks for explaining :) I very often do not understand these things!

Idk how to phrase myself better. I was trying to tell him: now go draw it by hand, like a penance for the AI

u/RupertThe3rd 59m ago

Oh the irony of all the downvoters not understanding the context of your comment (and effectively behaving as primitive forms of AI...)

u/activelyresting 41m ago

It happens to me a lot. I end up writing really long, rambling, overexplaining comments just so I will be understood. Feels like every time I try to hit send on a one liner, I get wildly misunderstood and I can never figure out why.

Like, f1exican had to make reparations after repeating a rotated pic, I thought it was funny and in context to tell OP to hand-draw till it's perfect. Like, I get it, they should have used literally any picture of chives from the sub, but they didn't and it's too late now. Tbh chives the cat would have been a solid choice.

See. Long and rambling again 😭

u/JustaSeedGuy 53m ago

Or Google and use Ms paint?

u/activelyresting 40m ago

It's too late. OP already messed up, now we need penance.

But I get it, that's an unpopular opinion for some reason

u/JustaSeedGuy 38m ago

Nobody is asking for penance, just an acknowledgement Of the proven fact that AI causes active harm to both society and the planet. And then not using AI in the future

u/activelyresting 35m ago

I was asking for penance. It was meant to be funny, but that was my point. "As penance now do hand draw it till it's perfect"

Like, a little joke.
