Same thing happens in the communities for AI images. Some user will make a picture of a clever idea, but then other users copy the idea and beat the dead horse.
I don’t get it.
They literally have the tools to make images of any idea, and they choose to use it to make somebody else’s idea over and over.
Sadly. I will ever understand the mindset of taking joy from bandwagoning. “yay, I’m doing something completely and utterly unoriginal for the 10000th time, wooo!”
Lazy jokes that are sometimes funny. Just like normal lazy jokes people repeat. It’s not a new phenominon. It’s just a new medium. A “new medium” that’s decades old.
Depends - sometimes you see a concept that you think you can improve on. Or maybe you read about their workflow how they did the image, learn something new and want to add your own spin. I don’t think, that’s a problem per se, as art is often iterating and innovating and that this is the root of creativity.
The problem is more when everyone does it and the whole community gets flooded with the same image concepts/jokes. In this case, the AI communities may get hit even worse in this regard, as it’s very easy to generate images and there’s less skill needed than if you had to draw/photoshop/… the whole meme all by yourself, which means it’s easier to enter the dead-horse-beating.

Many people are insanely uncreative and rather dim.
And want to be part of something, even if it’s obnoxious.
Welcome to the vast majority of social settings …

I’d fucking die of boredom.
What exactly do you think a meme is?
