Maybe you are right, it really was only one submission I found suspect, and it could be due to style, but AI is also increasingly difficult to discern. The paper says nothing, that's just a border style:
Regardless, I'm still just describing what he sounds like, and sounding like that is what made me suspicious enough to try to check his other claims. Not sure why someone who is an artist would try to defend hiding AI usage, given they are being much more targeted and affected by generative AI. At the end of the day, it doesn't matter, he knows if he drew it or not, but I would be sus of not just him, but any artist that sounds like they are excessively defending generative AI use.
Omg this shit is ludicrous. Are you baby brained?
I don't use pencils to draw. I do this intentionally b/c I am a trained printmaker & back in the day (think sixteenth century) when making intaglio prints (that means on copper plates), there was no way to erase.
So I spent a long time learning to create line art w/o using pencil b/c I wanted to create that same weird, not-quite-right look that intaglio prints have.
I'm not sure why I'm bothering explaining myself b/c I am not in the habit of doing that, but goddamn, get a fucking hobby then maybe you won't feel so threatened by AI.
Honestly, I don't care, it looks like shit to me (to each his own). I was just telling you what your argument sounded like, and showing how much more sus I am of artists who defend AI. Lots of words, but you've just joined the ranks of the people selling themselves as artists who are just selling printed AI slop. You'll be the one to know for sure, but I don't know what else to say, you are the one who unnecessarily brought it into the reply chain so you could throw shade on yourself ... Goo goo, gaga?
Yeah, baby brained shit. Good luck, you're going to need it.
I Have No Big Brain And I Must Printmake 😥
