25. I think there was definitely some human imagination behind some of these.

Sometimes people can imagine things they don't have the skill to execute themselves (like a solid gold battleship, for instance). Looks to me like that's what most of these are: a visualization of an idea that started in a human brain.

I agree we should all have serious concerns about AI and how it's used, especially in the areas of environmental issues and taking over tasks that humans could do better. But it's here, and it's not going away, whether we like it or not. Calling everything it's used to create "slop" isn't going to change that, and neither is criticizing people for enjoying images like these.

Just my opinion, and I know you don't agree. I'm just expressing an alternate view, not trying to start a fight.
