I need high resolution memes to print out as protest signs
Formats:
jpeg
png
Sizes:
11" x 17"
24" x 36"
In particular, I want the bell curve meme where the dumb guy and smart guy say "this AGI thing is dangerous" and the midwit does a bunch of mental gymnastics on 24x36 sign. Please add the PauseAI logo.
You can crib ideas or images from the #memes-🤣 channel as long as they are high res enough. Please put files in a comment below. If there already a folder for meme signs, please let me know!

Is there meant to be a linked folder? I made a subfolder within "Media>Signs and Posters" labeled "Meme Collection" and combed back through the memes channel and browsed Twitter to curate some of what I thought were the strongest ones in general (though some may not be high res enough for this purpose). I believe I included the one you mentioned.
They are not yet formated to the appropriate size/dimensions. I should be able to make canva files with correct dimensions tomorrow, if no one else gets to it first.
Here is the link:

Im resizing them
wait, the iq one is horizontal, you mean 17x11 right? the other one is a square, that could be 24x36 or 36x24. I honestly don't know how the whole printing works
24x24 isnt good?
eager-peach•2y ago
I'm wondering if it would be good to include Pause AI logos/website/QRcode to website on any posters? So they can be left in public spaces and people can scan to learn more/get involved. So maybe additional space could be used for that?
ratty-blush•2y ago
yeah that's true
I will go to bed soon but someone could edit the resized ones to put other stuff there
I think the time to stop one is good too, most of the others seems to have a loot of text
also, the IQ one that I resized seemed like the most simple and with clear letters but there are 2 others that are similar

bottom part of this one seems more visual than text

we should avoid comparing ourselves to other movements
also, a project that is abandoned but have a couple of ideas (only mine 😅) that could be converted into signs: https://discord.com/channels/1100491867675709580/1227033396098760856

Hmm is there a specific reason for this? My background is climate and the primary reason I took an interest in AI safety was the arguments/reasoning I heard about the scale of impact. Maybe a meme isn’t the right medium for that discussion, but might depend on the target audience.
I made a pause AI version of the stop sign meme (17x11) in the aforementioned folder
ratty-blush•2y ago
I think unless you reach open minded people, most will take it as an attack to their movements

also mocked up some sign/slogan ideas (not memes) and shared the canva link on the "signs slogan" post, could be used/adapted for signs for this protest or future protests https://discord.com/channels/1100491867675709580/1165750739352690758/1238708174048067586

Probably too late of an addition to be printed for this protest, but I like the simplicity and clarity of this message.

@Giacomo Bonnier can you describe your brilliant idea with the fuse and the dynamite?
metropolitan-bronze•2y ago
Hey! It’s an analogy I like to use to describe the fact that we need to act urgent and we need to err on the side of precaution
“We need tu cut the burning fuse before removing the dynamite”
We need to pause, get in control of AI development before we can work on the entirety of the problem that unchecked technological advancement pauses to humanity.

Thanks @Giacomo Bonnier, let me suggest something:
Imagine a 2x2 picture where:
0. a fuse on a dynamite is burning and there are people around it looking like the person from the famous artwork "The Scream" by Edvard Munch 1. a person is putting their fingers on the fuse, making the fuse go out 2. the fuse is put in a safety chamber 3. scientists gather around the chamber, doing analysis on it to make use of the explosive power (like nuclear powerplants) What do you all think about this?

I like the idea. I’m wondering if the last panel is clear enough visually. Would the scientists be analyzing the dynamite? Because if so then maybe it should be the one put in the safety chamber. But I get that the fuse itself represents current ai threat.
