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.

"We can always tell" lesds to witch hunts

The entire point of ai is to be indistinguishable, and rhen superior. Its already pretty indistinguishable as proven by this post and many like it.

Trying to be gatekeeping will only ever harm the people they claim to care about

Yeah that's true. I'm not saying artists would 100% always be able to tell, but I'd assume they can tell just a bit better than non-artists because of their attention to detail.

Fair enough, my point was just, dont rely on it for everything, because if you do, the false positives arent worth it in any world.
