It's to the point where if you drop an AI meme or screenshot of text in chat people will mock you. I don't see that getting better?

Memes have associations, connotations, subtleties in how they're used in different contexts - they're a communication medium. A well applied meme is like (it isn't - but it can be viewed similarly to) poetry where you've matched your idea with an evocative statement to a perfect degree and the subtleties and implications in your head are well and fully transferred to the reader. An AI meme is like a dry technical paper that lays out all of the information in a kludgy unimaginative manner. Good meme based communication relies on a lot of audience understanding and can draw people together as a demonstration of kinship.
I mean I can make a good meme with AI but it requires effort to ensure it is indistinguishable from a homegrown meme.
Does it need to?
If anything, it should continue and apply to anyone using AI.
nope!
