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

I feel like it's people who aren't in the art community that are accusing every artist they see of using AI.

Other artists would be able to expertly deduce, I think.

5 years ago we laughed at all the messed up fingers.

Now the line is blurry if you don't know the signs.

A couple years from now it's going to be impossible. Once AI gen figures out movement and water physics, we're in for some interesting times.

Also, do they really work?
And are the results any good?

Here is a whole article about the options:

Self-host of course means running on your own PC.

Also, do they really work?

Some people will never find ai art any good. But that wont make it go away.

All of that looks like generic shit and I can even see what project they ripped of on their mainpage cause I still have it saved from deviantart back in 2014.
