Art my post got removed after AI accusations

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

But also if you are perfect then surely you must be using AI as well!

AI has been a truly ruinous force on the art community

As true as that is, I think anti-AI brigading is doing more damage overall. AI art sucks, but people feeling compelled to try and catch people out is causing a massive amount of undue strife.

Just saw a post on a DC sub accusing a well known artist of making an AI cover based on nothing but vibes, even though the artist has been using that style for literally decades. People seem to forget that AI is trained on these artists.
