    It gets worse; these stamps are part of a “crypto block chain” and also are apparently “NFTs” that can be bought which were created by 2 AI “artists” for us to use.

    Holy shit I want to know how much some moron in An Post had us scammed out of.

  2. Such a stupid initiative. We have such a vast wealth of artists in the country we should be celebrating instead.

  3. AI and art, two mutually exclusive words if ever there were any. That above example is just hideous nothing, but it presumably impressed some twit at AnPost

    Bloody gross. AI artists can go do one. How about giving a struggling artist who has honed their unique craft a prompt. Circling the drain of innovation here

  5. That is some horrible AI generated crap, looks like set design from some really bad movie. Who do An Post thinks wants this, people would prefer basically anything else on stamps, Irish Art, photos of famous places, musicians, writers, sports people, actors and the list could go on.

    Landscape with giant shiny metallic dildo.

    Yes, that’s the essence of today’s Ireland….go fuck yourself.

    Such an absolute disgrace we should be celebrating our Irish artists and creatives and not some cost cutting bullshit. This is an absolute joke

  8. Hang on lads, I’m still using stamps I bought at Christmas 4 or 5 years ago. Give me time to catch up.
