are restaurants near you using terrible ai slop too?
>>22186800yes. Usually food trucks
>>22186800I keep coming across it with online recipes. I won't shop at a place that uses it and I wont use a recipe that uses it. I haven't really seen it at restaurants but I don't go out to eat much.
>>22186800It’s not a novel concept. The first rule of food photography as always been don’t use real food.
I recently had a baker bag with Ghibli anime slop trying to bait alphas into joining them
>>22186800Paulie Gee's newer slice shop in the East Village uses this shit and I think it's because the franchisee doesn't give a shit and the main man has no idea about this stuff. Sad to see. damn good pizza though
>>22186800Personally I think bagels and satanic AI goes hand in hand
>>22186969>The first rule of food photography as always been don’t use real food.Not if you're an old school Asian.
>>22186969that's pretty wrong. you will repost the same epic youtube tutorial with the foam and shit but that's really specific adds for TV, not restaurant and real places standards. fucking slave.
>>22186969You could take pictures of the actual food and ask the AI to beautify them.But that would take at least a little bit of effort. Instead>Make a Philly Ugly Cheesesteak and a Bacon Egg, Ugly & Cheese please
>>22186800Chinese place nearby a place I went to had an AI slop design at their entrance of some woman eating soup with tears running down her eyes and a facial expression that says fearful hysteria instead of "damn this soup is good"!
>>22187008I don't get why you'd use AI slop in a place with a lot of arts people. L and G Train AI Ads get butchered to shit, you ought to have gotten a hint if you're in the East Village. I know the area's become more a Tech Bro area, but you're not in San Francisco.
>>22187136Yeah I think Bushwick and Ridgewood and other arty places in Brooklyn are where you wouldn't get away with this, but EV is way more gentrified now and the AI shit is just all over Manhattan in general. Lots of delis and liquor stores use them. The ones worth your time don't, though, which is why I was disappointed to see this associated with Paulie Gee's
>>22187155(and yeah I know Ridgewood is Queens and it's *the* EV)
>>22186969The point of food photography is to make the food look more appetizing, the sloppa bagels look like they have genital warts.
>>22186800half of /ck/ is ai slop now.
>>22187221It's the issue of the moment, what else are people going to engage with? It's this, uncooked chicken, McDonalds toys or pizza slices purchased in Manhattan
>>22187221this is why I appreciate hot bar anon
>>22187221There's a dedicated spammer who makes as many low quality AI threads as possible.
>>22186800>"photoshopped menus were ok.">"this ai shit pisses me off!"what the fuck is wrong with you?
>>22187002how would that work since only faggots watch anime?
>>22187341>here are photos of food, albeit just not the food present at this locationvs>heres pictures of hexagons that are food colored
>>22187136>I don't get why you'd use AI slop in a place with a lot of arts peoplecost.ai is basically free and artfags want $50k for a "picture of a pizza".they're really just going to buy themselves a new camera or lens and expensive lighting.i say this as somebody that has done graphic design work, just use the fucking ai, it's just a pizza and pizza sells itself.
>>22187347your post has no point, just statements.
>go on unsplash>switch to royalty free option>look up food type>use royalty free picture of real food>phonepost and cram phone up asshole>successful restaurant
>>22187008How does one order a whole pie on toast? How is the toast pizza?
>>22187008At least that's recognizable as food. Only thing wrong is the obnoxious font.
>>22187350Ah, so it fits yours perfectly.Perfect response to strawman nonsense.
>>22187341>Here is a woman with makeup on>Here is a woman straight up catfishing using not her own likenessHope that helps.
>>22187341Hey retard: photo alteration goes back to the dawn of photography and is in fact an inherent property of photography itself, especially film photography. "Airbrush" has been used as a verb since at least 1902 and photographers were using things like pastels, inks and gouache to alter photos since at least the 1840s. If you went to a Denny's with photos on the menu between the mid-90s and late 2000s or so those items were meticulously staged before shot with a technical film camera by a professional product photographer and then the exposures were developed and edited, digitized, and then edited again for printing. Earlier than that the process was almost the same and after that the process went fully digital.
>>22187008I don't get it, looks more like a stock photo than anything.
>>22187362holy shit it works
>>22186800I refuse to buy anything from a restaurant using obvious AI like that. If your branding is that low effort, your food probably sucks
>>22187581>If your branding is that low effort, your food probably sucksHow can you possibly say that!? It's Sysco's best microwavable meals!
>>22186800Ew this looks disgusting
>>22187503you fucker
>>22186800These look like they're from a fucking nightmare dimension.I've never seen a burger I'd actually call evil before.
>>22187015I love this image.
>>22187828>>22187868Yeah I'm personally not offended by AI use in itself but I don't understand how so many people seem fine with using such terrible gens even for the media promoting their businesses, like how is something like that getting past your own personal quality standards, how are they saying to themselves 'yes that looks good'
>>22188104I think boomers just one and done it. The gooning on the job ain’t gonna do itself
>>22188104Same, my biggest issue with AI use is the propensity for it to be genuinely bad. Y’all can’t even be bothered to fucking make it good and you’re using the easiest tool in human history? wtf
>>22186800Why do they think this looks good? It looks terrifying
>>22187093That’s actually hysterical, take a picture and post it
>>22187186>the black orbs on the "salmon bagel"
>>22187833thats fascinatingdid i really win?am i really relieved from the game forever?
>>22189154i'm assuming they're supposed to be capers, but yea those are some insidious spheresnot would
>>22189160you actually just lost it again
>>22186800>are restaurants near you using terrible ai slop tooYeah, but they all run by browns and sell dogshit anyway. Funnily, the best brown run place near me uses fucking bitmojis on their logos/menus.
there is one local chinee foo place making posts with AI slop but they're not even bothering to make them look like photographsthere's dozens of these posts on their profile with a paragraph of text on each that is also clearly ai gennedmy regular spot is closed on mondays so i went here once and the food was shit
>>22189160Yes!https://i.4cdn.org/wsg/1788740397061743.webm
yeah arabs and indians love ai slop like flies love shit
>>22189203capers do not look like that
>>22189015Agreed, it’s really off putting and I’d much rather see just a text menu. That said I have a mind’s eye and I wonder how much differently people without one overall feel more positively about having any image, even if AI
>>22189247the strangest part is that ai can make food that looks decentits still not real but it looks real enough, these horrible looking menus have to be apart of some scam
>>22189677I have never in my life seen whole olives and capers together in a pasta dish that's cursed as fuck, imagine you're eating your spaghetti and suddenly you're chrewing on a whole briney olive with the battery acid kicker of a caper.
>>22186800>implying i can afford to go to restaurantsoh you!
>>22189702thats how italians make spaghetusually unpitted olives too because the pitted ones have no flavourspaghet was never meant to be spoonable gruel that requires zero chewing
>>22189702sounds good, pleb
>>22189560exactly, but i dont think the machine knows that yet
>>22189702Look up puttanesca, thats a pretty common pasta variant
How can you even tell this is AI?
>>22190138It's amazing how even blind people like you can use computers these days
>>22190138
Yeah I saw a bunch, months ago. These fucks should be sued for false advertising>>22187015judAIsm
>>22190138>How can you even tell this is AI?
>>22190138It looking like it came from the horror dimension certainly helps
>>22189014Its what happens when you give tools to people who have no concept of what that tool even is besides generating images
>>22190507Like when we gave the wheel to niggers and they just fill them with gasoline and put them around people's heads and set them on fire. Or when we gave phones to jeets and they just use them to steal grandma's pension.
>>22190548When is the last time you talked to your family or friends in person?
>>22187362this is worse. with AI you know immediately that it's a poor representation of their product. with this you can actually be fooled because it's a "real image" and you wouldnt think twice.
>>22186800That's good. Marketing people are expensive and obviously easily replaceable. Low talent group.
>>22186800I haven't seen it on a menu yet, but my social media has been flooded with slop ads for local restaurants, all of which have that that same overly busy, overly contrasty HDR look like that one. It's fucking awful and I don't understand how they think it looks good or will get them more business than the actual photography and basic Photoshop stuff they'd been doing for decades previously, given that half the population will recognize it as AI instantly and reject it based on that and even the people who don't know it's AI will probably just think it looks disgusting.
>>22189972>Look up puttanescaAll i could find were personal ads from your mom. She does seem available for a wide array of capers
>AI food is just as good as normal food, you can't even tell the difference>you just hate it because you can't afford it, poorfag>ovenslop will be obsolete by 2030
>>22190548No thats not what i meant. This is /ck/, go to /pol/ if you care about faggotry like race politics>>22191945Your penis actually needs to be visible in order for her to consider you. Maybe drop some weight so it pokes out of your folds
>>22192080>AI food is just as goodReminds me of the (real) slop Squareat
>>22192106Man, I have never had a stringy sweet potato.
>>22192084What a way to waste a perfect floppy spaghetti comeback
>>22192106I remember this stuff and we meme'd the hell out of it on here. Not surprisingly, the company went under. >>22192120What would you have quipped, Alf posting anon
couldn't you sue the restaurant for false advertising if the food doesn't look like the sloppaat least the pretty food in fast food commercials actually looks like what it's supposed to represent
>>22186800>this leads to a future where it's not just the menu imagery that's generated by AI, the food is too
>>22192388There will always be poor people self sustaining outside things like this though
>>22186969Okay but you shouldn't use something that looks worse than real food.
>>22192391That would be an in-between step until poor people figure out how to recover, repair and maintain the older less advanced food printers which restaurant chains eventually replace with new fancier models
>>22192106I have never had asparagus or sweet potato that could be considered "dry, fibrous or stringy.
>>22189711italians also shit on new jersey retards and their gobbledeegook
Some have no shame nor taste.
>>22192792this one is obviously a joke
>>22192792imagine seeing this on an acid trip
>>22186800You will eat ze bugs and alien slop
>>22192792>5 out of 6 dishes have eyeballs lmao
>>22192792no way I'm the same specie as the creatures that see this and think it's fine or funny. no way.
>>22187008Why is he using a Nassau area code?
>>22186800I live in a aSEAn country and no one does this despite every 80 year old grandma having a smartphone and using it to order groceries and paying at shops
>>22193043it's a franchisee so presumably that dude lives in nassau county?
>>22193168You'd think he'd cop to getting a 212 Phone Number for his business, but that's just another layer of not giving a shit. The East Village isn't exactly short on pizza places
>>22192792>even the screenshot is ai generatedkek
>>22187136>literally cook dozens of the items daily>can't be assed to take a photo of it>ai sloppa a absolutely shit picture of it insteadMy work here is done
>>22186800Yes, and I refuse to eat anywhere that does this. I get wanting to save money, but I'm supposed to be eating that. Take a damn picture of your food and put it on your menu. I went to the seaside with my girlfriend one week, we ate at the only place that didn't do this. The week after I went hiking with my friend, the mountain tourist town we went to was the same. Just AI slop everywhere, the worst thing is I go to that place quite often and even half a year ago it wasn't like this
>>22190138Please stop huffing paint thinner, it's not good for you
>>22197087Looks like the fucking walls from system shock one, Im not eating that shit, nasty ass picture
>>22197087more like botfly burrito
