Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

I think uncanny valley isn't quite the feeling I'm describing. Maybe I'm being pedantic but it's different than that. Image generation can create some realistic people who completely avoid uncanny valley. It's just AI generated people have like "thumbprints" of AI. Like a certain sheen, similar creases, and a 'generic'-ness.

Maybe it's something that comes from looking at them a bunch. I spent a lot of time messing with stable diffusion making stupid shit. And it's like I guess the same feeling when you watch movies with a cinematographer/director you're familiar with. Like even it's a movie you haven't seen before, the color pallet, composition, and framing is like "oh this was made by x."

I've been impressed by how detailed and realistic some pictures are but like the lighting is a huge giveaway.

Ah, i know what you mean. You can often tell AI because it's too perfect. The skin being too smooth is often a dead giveaway.
I personally still put that in the uncanny valley, but i hear you.
