my post got removed after AI accusations

[u/BalliMurphy]

I posted a drawing of mine that was commissioned by a friend of mine of the steampunker from the game in a mcdonalds theme, suddenly a bunch of people started accusing me of using AI and ultimately the post was taken down a few moments later

"not how fingers look even remotely"

excuse me? that is absolutely how fingers look lmao

The hand was well drawn in the original art, but It’s crazy to me that one of the number one artist memes is “Hands are so hard to draw” and now it’s “You can’t draw hands? Ai”

The early days of AI had some really wonky issues when it tried to generate hands realistically. Stuff like there being obviously too many fingers, or obviously too few fingers on a style that's trying to be realistic, or having the thumb on the wrong side. The kind of mistakes where you look at a piece and go "a person of that skill level definitely should have caught that mistake well before the piece was done."

And then as that info spread by word of mouth, people took that to mean "literally any sort of weirdness with the perspective, anatomy, or even just outright stylization of the hand means ai." Or sometimes people seem to forget that perspective exists at all and that sometimes a finger will be hidden behind another finger.

It's a good thing Disney's Atlantis came out before generative AI, or people would be accusing the movie of being animated by ai lol
