I’ve decided to stop caring when people hit the special “AI slop!!1!” button on their keyboards whenever they see an image they don’t think looks natural. 20 years ago the same people would have angrily pounded the “Obvious Photoshop!!1!” button. It really doesn’t matter if they think AI is the only way to manipulate images now, as if Photoshop etc dropped off the face of the Earth. It’s like arguing over whether Superman could beat up the Hulk. It just doesn’t matter, and it doesn’t matter how much they hate AI. It’s not going away.

At least photoshop required skill to make anything convincing.
Who fucking cares if it’s done for a shitpost?!
