Is that a tortilla blanket?
Is that my dog?
...do we all have the same blanket for real?
Fantastic doggo!
I also have that tortilla blanket. No dog atm though.
I downvote and block the poster of every piece of slop I detect. Your dog got my upvote and deserves all the rest of them too.
Looks like my dog
I hate AI. I’ll take an amateur photo or drawing before something generated by a robot every time.
"It's not great"
I don't know what you are talking about. That's about as dog as I've ever seen.
Cozy borkito
So instead we upvote the cute dog? You got me, I'll upvote a pupper every time, especially if it's what looks like a terrier mix. I had a dog with a face kinda like that, but greyer, leaning more toward Schnauzer. But, all dogs are the goodest boy (or girl) and this makes sense to dog people (though, I'm more of a cat person, though if I'm honest I'd take a red panda over either, but then again, who wouldn't?).
Looks like my dog lol
Is this a Burrito blanket? I got one too. Great taste, mister.
Yoo me too, I love my burrito blanket
I was so confused until I read this.
I see a lot of AI generated stuff getting upvoted
What alternative lemmy world are you living in? Lemmy is one of the most hostile to AI communities I know of
They almost always get removed or deleted eventually, but sometimes they'll get upvoted for a few hours until an eagle eyed user spots evidence and calls it out.
It's also not OPs fault most of the time. It's hard to spot them
I see no GenAI content here whatsoever except for what's posted on communities specifically meant for it.
In a general sense, absolutely, but there are still a good number of pro-AI communities around here that typically keep to their own bubbles. Anyone browsing by All will inevitably see them come up here and there.
I also see AI-gen content make it to the top of larger, more general communities like Lemmy Shitpost every now and then. Usually when it's harder to tell that it was generated by AI. When it gets called out, you'll typically see more upvotes than downvotes, but there will inevitably be some AI sympathist or two in the replies who won't hesitate to go off about how it's not a big deal/it's just a meme/there's nothing inherently wrong with AI/etc.
In theory, if we're growing beyond Linux nerds and harcore communists, this should be one of the biggest and most general communities as well as one of the most likely to see slop get upvoted.
ai kittens and puppies make up like 30% of Facebook traffic on their own at this point. if we're worried about ai slop taking over THIS is the community to watch.
Check. Mate.
Adding to the pile
Incorrect.
It's great!
Don't you dare call your dog "not great".
Ah I see
Lemmy comment fishing perfected
OP claims to hate AI. OP posts what is clearly an AI picture of a Dog Burrito with a giant tortilla.
Another doppledogger 
what posts here are ai gen? i haven't seen any recently.
Lies.
This is great by definition.
That dog has good taste in blankets. I have the same one. Cool shit
Doggie burrito!
lol I have the same tortillas dog blanket, it's a good one
the title isn't great, this is an excellent real dog picture, the goodest of boyz
He certainly is great!
You're correct, it's not great. It's AWESOME!!!
Oh shit is that the burrito blanket?! We have one of those too its fantastic! Cat-burritoes and dog-burritoes!
Sometimes we make a mountain out of it and bury the cat in the top like she's ruling a volcano-shaped-burrito!
No joke, when I saw the thumbnail I was just about to go looking through my photos because my dog looks very similar (terrier Chihuahua mix so his snout is a little longer) and he loves wrapping up in my tortilla pattern blanket.
10/10 doggo
This is great!
Not a dog but he sure acts like one
Harsh. It's trying it's best
Where was your real dog taken from?
animal intelligence
Lightly toasted tortilla
that's an unfortunate pattern on that blanket
