Horrific, but still more lifelike than the real Zuck.

Do we need a robot guillotine for those or will a regular one do?

[–] Mwa@thelemmy.club 8 points 1 day ago

[–] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

My religion states that I have to destroy them if I see them.

[–] sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 1 day ago

No, no, thats so ridiculous, why does Kojima always do this absurd over the top nonsense?

Oh whats that?

This is actual reality?

... Oh.

Maybe that Kojima guy was actually onto something.

One, that's nightmare fuel. Two, more weird art like this please.

They can refuel each other by docking or something. It'll be like that robot thats constantly sweeping the oil into itself and when it stops, it dies.

Only one response to that:

I actually did destroy the family furbies this way.

We got them, thought they were fun for a bit... but they wouldn't ever shut up.

We put them in a drawer, and they'd just rattle and groan, in the middle of the damn night.

So one day I took em, put em in the middle of the road, covered them in kerosene, lit em up.

... with a safety lighter, of course.

I remember their protestations as they burned.

Goddamn demon toys.

Never got punished for it, couple months later somebody just asked 'whatever happened to those damn fur toy things?'

'oh, i dunno, i thought you took em away or something'

'... whatever, just glad those are gone, christ, they would not stop yammering'.

If I see anything with Zuckerberg's face, I am bailing, "human", robot, dog, whatever

I find him very disturbing on a fundamental level, I can't tell you why but he's scary to me, I would not touch it under any circumstances

[–] LordMayor@piefed.social 3 points 1 day ago

Makes me think of the dog at the end of Invasion of the Body Snatchers.

Wow. I hate it. Fuck this guy.

[–] Rooster326@programming.dev 8 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

You're supposed to hate it.

It talks of how art once influenced you, and now its algorithms.

[–] NotMyOldRedditName@lemmy.world 21 points 1 day ago (1 children)

If you take the time to actually read the article/watch the video, the dogs are constantly taking pictures in styles of their person, and shit them out onto the floor lol.

[–] k0e3@lemmy.ca 15 points 1 day ago

Public urinal on legs?

[–] NoForwadSlashS@piefed.social 5 points 1 day ago

Each of he robots poops out AI art in the style of whoever's head it is. No surprise the artist is famous for NFTs.

[–] texture@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago (1 children)

im all for art and stuff, even make some now and then, but i literally hate these things. it would take all my willpower not to stomp those things on site. sick of seeing them. cheers and be well.

[–] mosspiglet@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I think that's the reaction the artist intended: revulsion.

[–] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Don't know about you but for me it'd be less revulsion and more just an outlet for my unyielding hatred.

[–] mosspiglet@lemmy.world 1 points 20 hours ago

That works, too!

[–] melsaskca@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 day ago

Now throw the current human snidely whiplash relics in the museum as well.

[–] thecaptaintrout@lemmy.zip 26 points 1 day ago

I do not condone the abuse of animals, but I will make an exception with this. Time to put some mutts to sleep via percussive maintenance.

[–] AoxoMoxoA@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

My dog hates dogs. I would turn her loose on one of these shitboxes
