Ah, memes. The internet’s favorite way of communication is a rapidly-growing, fast-moving combination of images and blocky text, and if you take a week off of the web you’ll have missed a generation of new memes. There are good memes and there are bad memes. The good ones get shared, reposted, and spread all across social media. You never see the bad ones because, well, they don’t get shared.
Now, a new class of memes is being born, and they’re not created by human hand. They’re AI memes, and ImgFlip — an online tool for making memes, charts, and other visual oddities — has unleashed them upon us at the best possible time.
