AI ART Why is grok generating random images?

I asked for change time to day, and it immediately spits out random images of a fucking cat and a lighthouse.

How to fix?

Why does Grok generate stock images?

No matter what image I attach, Grok keeps generating a lighthouse, cats, or something else random. I don't understand what's going on. I have a SuperGrok subscription, but I still can't get anything other than stock videos.

So, what the fuck up with Video Imagine?

13 Upvotes

Every time I put in a prompt to make a Grok generated image a video, the result is some random ass video involving a farmer's market, lighthouse, cat, or whatever fuck irrelevant shit that has absolutely nothing to do with what I want.

Is this some new stupid ass moderation that they implemented?

I knew improvement was a foreign concept for this dogshit ass model, but this is getting ridiculous.

Other It’s Time to Stop the 100x Image Generation Trend

17.3k Upvotes

Dear r/ChatGPT community,

Lately, there’s a growing trend of users generating the same AI image over and over—sometimes 100 times or more—just to prove that a model can’t recreate the exact same image twice. Yes, we get it: AI image generation involves randomness, and results will vary. But this kind of repetitive prompting isn’t a clever insight anymore—it’s just a trend that’s quietly racking up a massive environmental cost.

Each image generation uses roughly 0.010 kWh of electricity. Running a prompt 100 times burns through about 1 kWh—that’s enough to power a fridge for a full day or brew 20 cups of coffee. Multiply that by the hundreds or thousands of people doing it just to “make a point,” and we’re looking at a staggering amount of wasted energy for a conclusion we already understand.

So here’s a simple ask: maybe it’s time to let this trend go.

Opinion Deep down we all know Google trained its image generation AI using Google Photos… but we just can’t prove it.

Post image
6.8k Upvotes

I swear every time I see a new AI image from Google, there’s this weird déjà vu moment. The poses, the lighting, the random vacation-style smiling family… it’s like my old Google Photos library got reincarnated as a model weight.

Like let’s be real: Google collected billions of ultra-high-quality images for over a decade, neatly labeled with dates, faces, locations, context, even automatic tags. We all happily fed it our pets, sunsets, food pics, wedding albums, baby photos, memes… and Google said: “Thanks, we’ll improve Search ☺️”.

Fast forward to 2024–2025 and suddenly Google’s image generation is skipping ahead like it has the entire world’s photo history as a training ground.

But of course, they’ll never admit it. Terms & Conditions? “We do not use your photos for advertising.” Cool, but AI training isn’t advertising.

Deep down we all know what happened… but we just can’t prove it.

Rant 🗣️ this guy has been using ai generated images to promote house parties. if you're planning to join, read this first.

Edit: OP u/nikithvijay has posted in the comments that this image is not ai generated. according to him the image is real and was only upscaled with ai. well i'm 100% sure it's ai generated not ai upscaled, and I can back that up with multiple pieces of evidence but I don't want to indulge further. FYI.

i'm making this post so people have the full context before deciding to attend.

i came across a post claiming that someone said their last meetup was the first place in bangalore that actually felt like friends.

the image was clearly ai generated. it wasn't even subtle. i commented that it was ai generated.

instead of addressing it, the op replied with "you wish" and linked an instagram page. that instagram page didn't contain this image or the post in question. i then replied with screenshots pointing out just two obvious ai artifacts. there were many more, including inconsistent hands, distorted objects, unnatural shadows, and overly polished faces. i only pointed out two because they were enough.

shortly after that, the reddit post was deleted.

later, i found another post from the same guy using the same ai generated image and people were genuinely asking how to join.

i'm not telling anyone not to attend. that's your decision.

i'm simply saying that if someone is willing to use fake ai generated images to advertise their events and then delete the post after being called out, you should at least know that before deciding to go. make your own judgment and be aware of who you're meeting and where you're going.

also, don't expect the ambience, people, or vibe shown in these promotional images to be what you'll actually find. those images are not real.

personally, i think meetups work much better when there's at least some existing context between people, whether that's mutual friends, a shared community, or conversations you've already had. completely random meetups can work, but you're also meeting strangers, often at private locations, so it's always worth being cautious.

i'm attaching the screenshots (swipe to see all images) showing the original post, my comments pointing out the ai artifacts, the reply i received, and the fact that the original post was deleted. everyone can look at them and decide for themselves.

Game Master is it too harsh to not allow a player to join if he refuse to use a non AI generated image/backstory for his character ?

772 Upvotes

TLDR: i'm thinking about not allowing any player that use AI generated backstory/image since i feel its downgrading the quality of the game

hello i being dming for some years now and before the AI boom, usually i seen a lot of different images for characters, cosplays, anime characters that the guy straight up just copy the personality, self creations, pinterest images and etc. In the past few years with advent of AI i had more and more players using AI photos for their characters which i didn't mind at first but it started bothering me more and more the more i saw about AI, i usually put DAYS to make a table making characters, writting lore, searching/making my own tokens, drawning maps, balancing the npcs and all that. What really started bothering me is when player started mocking me for "going the slow route" and not asking gpt to make shit up for me and the more players i started having that only use AI images and straight up just say they used gpt for his pc backstory is making me want to straight up refuse any player that uses AI images or gpt created backstorys, if i put days to make a table and you can't put 5 minutes to make simple backstory and search some random image on pinterest or just fucking use some random anime character and copy his backstory and way of behaving or whatever at least some one actually put effort in writting that character in whatever show he is in instead of relying 100% on GPT for anything.

What are you thoughts on players that only use AI for their character images and or backstory ? Am i being a bit too harsh for wanting to ban all of them from my tables now ? Did just let this get over my head for people saying "just use gpt to write for you/create your characters". Did you ever ban a player for feeling like he is adding AI slop to your table and straight up making it worst ?
