Every day the feeling grows that calling legitimate art AI slop has done even more harm to artists than actual AI slop.
I very much doubt that AI would have included Homer Simpson, Brain and several other characters as well as tons of tiny yet legible text as easter eggs.
AI would include whatever the person using it tells it to.
It's fine, I seem to be in the clear minority getting an AI-vibe from this from the downvote brigading I've received.
"Brigading" implies off-channel coordination. I don't think that's really what you're suggesting is happening here.
Lol brigading as if we aren't just reducing the visibility of an incorrect and poorly communicated opinion in this comment section.
Cause nobody can just admit they're wrong or accept that people are ok to deny your visibility. It is fake internet points.
Ah, yes then brigading was a poor choice of word.
Yeah, good luck getting AI to follow such a complex prompt without plastering half the comic with unrecognizable cartoon mutants.
I downvote every comment that's accusing something of being AI. Either it's true, in which case the comment doesn't change anything, or it's false, in which case it's hurtful. The upside is not worth the downside.
I want it to become a norm that accusing something of being AI is considered rude.
If this were AI, at least some of that text would look like shit.
