    What’s ironic is that the first post with the meme is AI generated. Look at the placements of the thumb and fingers holding the frame of the painting.

    The original artist who replied and is being plagiarized is being shit on by the others.

      I’m, not so sure about that? To me, that comic is critical of AI, not necessarily supportive of it. I feel like we’re not supposed to take the side of the bearded person, but the three others and their “Why the fuck should I care?” demeanour. Through that lens, I see the hand holding the painting as an intentional riff by the artist, hinting at why the technology might be dismissed by the majority.

      I’m perfectly happy to be disproven, but I think one of the worst aspects of AI is the false accusations against legitimate artists. With the subject here being AI, I don’t want to be so quick to rule out that the “obvious sign of AI” isn’t itself satire.

        I don’t usually say this, but your observation and opinion are both preposterously wrong, almost to the point of ridicule.

        Do you have any evidence that the first post was made by the person who posted it? Any evidence of anyone making it at all? There isn’t a watermark or signature anywhere in any panel.

        In fact the comic doesn’t even comform to any of the panel dimensions and sloppily overflow into the whitespace for no reason, the ear lines of the black haired girl doesnt match in either panel for no reason, the painting doesn’t match for no reason…

        I could go on nit-picking this shit for you but it’s not my job to tell you what’s real or fake nor hold your hand through this transition period where you are no longer able to easily spot AI generated fake stuff. That’s on you to train yourself to look out for this kinda shit.

          Considering how much of jerk you’re being, I’m going to reply to this with the same tone.

          Do you have any evidence that the first post was made by the person who posted it?

          I never said that person did make it, I infact don’t believe that they did.

          Any evidence of anyone making it at all?

          Jesus fucking christ, if all art is now guilty (AI) until proven otherwise, all that’s going to do is harm artists even more than they already have been.

          There isn’t a watermark or signature anywhere in any panel.

          Are you daft? It could have easily been cropped out, something that’s been happening on the internet since forever.

          In fact the comic doesn’t even comform [sic] to any of the panel dimensions and sloppily overflow into the whitespace for no reason…

          Were you literally born yesterday? Artists have been overflowing the bounds of comic panels since the comic strip was bloody invented. A character holding an object, and that object extending past the panel so it’s not cropped, is a pretty classic trope. So much so, that it doesn’t tell you if this is AI or not, because an AI would have learnt the trope from its training data.

          …the ear lines of the black haired girl doesnt [sic] match in either panel for no reason, the painting doesn’t match for no reason…

          So? Having some variations in art is pretty normal.

          I could go on nit-picking this shit for you but it’s not my job to tell you what’s real or fake nor hold your hand through this transition period where you are no longer able to easily spot AI generated fake stuff. That’s on you to train yourself to look out for this kinda shit.

          Could you maybe train yourself to be less of a dick? Cool, thanks.

    You can tell the comic is AI made because despite the the panels with the three people being pretty different, they look equally devoid of life. Also, the massive hand holding the painting.

        And the AI generated painting being different the second time it’s shown. A human artist probably would have copy and pasted the one they did in the first panel so it stayed consistent.

    Alex Hirsch is awesome. I could see Grunkle Stan trying to work AI into one of his scams, Ford would have to talk him out of it.

    People usually aren’t impressed by photocopiers either these days. When you get right down to it, “art” generated by LLMs is just photocopying with more advanced steps. I think a lot of people inherently know this. An LLM isn’t an artist, it’s a mechanism for replicating what artists do.

    I’m going to block this sub. Bunch of whiners. If it’s so bad then it shouldn’t be so threatening to you.
