Happy Sunday, programmers! I may not be one of you, but I understand your struggle. One of my best friends in college was a computer science major , so I know exactly what it's like! Just kidding! I know I could not have lived the life that he did. I was sitting pretty getting a simple little liberal arts degree while this man had to stay up for 48 hours at a time to finish a singular project . Most of the time, he was just a cool bisexual stoner who just happened to be a STEM kid as well. But…

Things just get worse

How can a person feel so ugly and look so beautiful at the same time?

One of the coolest things about being a programmer is the lack of formality. People laughed at Mark Zuckerberg in the 2000s for enabling a culture where everyone wore a t-shirt and sweatpants to work. These days, it's not even a second thought that tech workers are not dressing up in a suit and tie. As somebody who works in an artsy-fartsy industry, I support coders and programmers wearing their pajamas to work. We've got to stick together in this world and fight against the rules and regulatio…

ChatGPT has been popping up in almost every corner of the Internet - and even at the parties that my friends throw. ChatGPT (which stands for Chat Generative Pre-trained Transformer) is an AI chatbot developed by OpenAI. The tool can be used to create AI art, to write papers, and even to create the hard-hitting content that Buzzfeed is known for. We're definitely not even scratching the somewhat scary possibilities of the service, but it seems like every week we learn of a new use. This week, G…

Decades ago, the more optimistic futurists probably thought that we'd eventually be living on space settlements in a scarcity-free utopia where robots do all the work for us and no one wants for anything. Few predicted that the future would look more like accepting “terms and conditions” before ordering a cheeseburger at the drive-thru, or internet-connected “ smart ” license plates that require a paid subscription in order to function properly. Yup, the future is now, and it's dumber than ever…

AI doesn't get better than this.

Plus: AI won't dirty talk with you.

Plus: a Twitch streamer does something deeply embarrassing again.

Look out for extra fingers

It seems like AI has totally blown up over the past six months. I remember when I first started working at Memebase, DALL-E AI-generated images were all the rage on Twitter. Personally, I thought those images were extremely cool because they could really accurately encompass the prompt. As time has gone on, AI art has become even more ubiquitous online, and it's gotten better and better. The hands for most pieces are still blurry, and they're nowhere near as sophisticated as some types of deep…

Bonus round: The Game Awards has an unexpected visitor.

It's not even free

It's just like a person

Imagination gone wild

By now, everyone's seen some of the hilariously cursed images generated through OpenAI's infamous AI system, DALL-E. Memelords and regular internet users alike have had a hell of a time testing the system's limits and possibilities, and we've gotten some pretty dank memes out of it. One redditor recently posted a series of fake movie posters that look like DALL-E vomited its closest approximations to some of Hollywood's most famous titles. While most of these are pretty obvious, we've included…
