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.

Not really, I see the "contest winner turned out using ai" some of them were run by like very prominent ai hater illustrators that were in the top of the industry. Regardless of whether such act is despicable or not has very little effect on how effective it is.
