The ship that dad is holding is sending up slop flares.
Edit: π€¦ββοΈ I know it's the original art. But the ship is huge, looks like it holds about 9 pegs, and the one on the left is lined up directly over a finger. π€·ββοΈ
... I can't tell if you're being facetious or not, but those are probably the red pegs you actually stick into the battleships in the game when your ship is hit. this is actually the box art from 1967, furthermore, I can remember seeing it before the age of slop came upon us.
Not everything is AI

I enjoy how every misplaced accusation of something being le AI le SLOP ends up just backfiring against the claim that AI only makes objectively trash things that can always be distinguished from beautiful pure human-made art. If it's plausible that AI could have made this, then it must be plausible for AI to make art as good as humans have. What's even better is it doesn't matter if you can correctly distinguish it 95% of the time. Even just one misclassification is enough to undermine the claim that AI only produces #slop. The sentiment of the claim could even be saved if people were willing to say that just X% of AI art is #slop, but this is unacceptable for the dogmatist's needs, which will only settle for 100%.
Iβve been seeing the trend recently where now anything bad with uncanny valley elements must be AI. Itβs just as much of a thought killer as blindly enjoying AI. This example was easy to confirm and before making an accusation, they just went βI should add doubt to the validity of the context for the sake of it.β
"It's not shit all the time" is a fantastic argument. Brilliant. Especially when "it's slop" isn't even close to being the main argument of the opposition.
This is old. Iβve seen this image long agoβ¦ well before AI slop was a thing.
Sometimes real people also fuck up
AFAIK, the ~~ad~~ box art is definitely real:

FYI your link has an extra bracket up front that breaks it. Was wondering why it wasn't working π
Thanks. Sorry about that. Fixed it.
