Hey mates, recently I’ve developed a tool
[https://github.com/db0/Fluxa-Avataria] to use the GenerativeAI on the AI Horde
[https://aihorde.net] to created random avatars and banners on lemmy. To keep
things spicy, I wanted to deploy to rotate the /c/piracy banner daily, as I’ve
done in a bunch of other communities like !stable_diffusion_art@lemmy.dbzer0.com
[/c/stable_diffusion_art@lemmy.dbzer0.com]
[https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/stable_diffusion_art] and the lemmy.dbzer0.com
[http://lemmy.dbzer0.com]. So now this is now active! ::: spoiler In case you’re
curious,. the current prompt used is this: "A of a (solo:1.2)

picked from each collection wrapped in { } which allows me to generate versatile
options every day to keep things fresh ::: Here’s some sample images that will

If you have improvements you want to see on the prompt, do let me know in the
comments. In the future I’m having thoughts of allowing the community here to
automatically send adjustments ideas to the prompt for funsies.
Things got heated on the piracy community at lemmy.dbzer0.com when the admin, db0, announced plans to use a GenerativeAI tool to rotate the community’s banner daily with random images.
While some praised the creative idea, others strongly objected, arguing that AI-generated art lacks soul and meaning. A heated debate ensued over the artistic merits of AI art versus human-created art.
One user threatened to unsubscribe from the entire instance over the “wasteful BS” of randomly changing the banner every day. The admin defended the experiment as a fun way to inject randomness and chaos.
Caught in the crossfire were arguments about corporate ties to AI image generators, electricity waste, and whether the banner switch-up even belonged on a piracy community in the first place.
In the end, the admin stubbornly insisted on moving forward with the AI banner rotation, leaving unhappy users to either embrace the chaotic visuals or jump ship. Such is the drama and controversy that can emerge from a seemingly innocuous banner change!
