There's a bit of drama going on with the popular game manager Lutris right now, with users pointing out the developer using AI generated code via Claude.
Look, as annoying as this guy is, I am pretty sure he drew these himself. I think I am usually pretty good at spotting AI and his profile doesn’t raise any flags for me. Of course I could be wrong, but just by the fact that these are often photographed pieces of paper makes me think it’s real.
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 and my deeply nested comment will be lost to time, but I would be sus of not just him, but any “artist” that sounds like they are excessively defending generative AI use. Edited my original comment somewhat tho.
I don’t use pencils to draft my work (penciling). 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 they etched balls-to
-the-wall style, mistakes & all.
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 so but, goddamn, get a fucking hobby then maybe you won’t feel so threatened by AI.

Ofc I did these people are rabid weirdos, it’s alright.

Omg this shit is ludicrous. Are you baby brained?
