Authenticity Problem

Thanks for the support! Funny thing I wanted to plug here: I've never received comments like that here on the Fediverse , but I get dozens of them, weekly, on the Meta platforms (Facebook/Instagram)...

I'm really grateful for how this community checks artists' work and actually verifies it's real human art before throwing random accusations.

This is my favorite place to share for a reason.

I've seen this happen to so many artists and writers now... I want to burn down every "AI" datacenter and make the tech bros live in the burnt out remains with nothing but the ashes of their computers to eat.

Coworker: "You write like AI"
Me, a writer: "Bitch"

@davidrevoy Just this weekend I was at a show and thought some hand-painted bird pictures were AI, like maybe she used AI references. The beaks were just wrong.

Still don't know if I was right or if I just mistook her style, and I hate that.

@davidrevoy Ah, yes, one of the most frustraing consequences of this inflation of genAI bubble is how people are giving in to a tendency that anything slightly competent can only have been made by a computer

People are getting a bit too complacent about being stupid as hell

@davidrevoy I mean I would HOPE people would need a real smoking gun to say that YOUR art is AI. I mean a lot of MFT is Anti-AI, so that would be random if it was made with AI.

Either way it's usually better to question, but not accuse when it comes to AI I think. Unless it is very much egregiously AI than it's better not to just throw accusations.

At least in this comic the vibe I get is just wanting to be a critic and not actually appreciating art though.

@davidrevoy Also I ran out of characters, but really good comic. Glad to see Cepper and Parrot again (Not that the other comics were bad of course I just like the Cepper and Parrot series).

Yeah, I made it with AI (Artistic Integrity).

@davidrevoy On one hand, we know AI in general has a bias for yellow because yellowish images have a higher tendency of getting marked as "good looking" because of the "golden hour" in photography.

On the other, true, while AI hurts artists, due to that, even more for those who like yellow tones!
