AI-generated art check thread

Posted under General

I think Alerj-Roses might be using AI. I uploaded two of their works earlier, and I'm just now noticing that some areas are a bit wonky, specifically the fingernails in post post #10458088 and the hair ornaments in both it and post #10463208. There's also the fact they post almost daily, which is definitely suspicious.

I'm not really sure what to do about this. Am I supposed to flag my own posts, or is there an option to have them immediately deleted?

Agreed, these are likely AI; the eyes also look suspicious. I flag my own posts when I realize they’re AI, as happened with post #10463125 earlier today.

post #10405676

The usual. Her hair does seem to loop in on itself and some of the strap buckles looks smudged. On the other hand, artist goes back since before AI was a thing and is outspoken against AI.

The thing she's lying on has a kinda inconsistent materials, latexy leather at the bottom of the image and grey worn leather or bedsheet belo her.

Also it shares the composition of one of their earlier image, which could imply he's reusing a prompt structure or an overtrained lora network. Also shares a composition with a dikko image (whos art is often used for AI model finetuning, so compositions like his are very prominent among ai generated images)

comparison : [https://files.catbox.moe/uk910a.png]

None of this is proof of AI use tho

I suspect that yuibread is using AI.

A lot of their art is either 832x1216, some multiple of that, or very close. Also noticed a few very strange things in some of their artwork.

  • post #10469992: nonsense fingers.
  • post #9948368: Left hair bow nonsense, hair also appears to melt into itself a bit on the right.
  • post #9770851: The patterns on her left glove are wack, and her hair looks like it's melting into her turtleneck on the right.
  • pixiv #132094573: Her eyes are complete nonsense, and the dress strap appears to melt into her hand.

Their accounts are also pretty new, only being made ~6months ago.

I think post #10472648 and the parent post #5872552 are AI-generated but I'm not 100% sure. I used two AI image detectors to check and one said both pictures are definitely AI while the other gave them a 36% chance.

AI detectors are not at all reliable and shouldn't be trusted. Also, that post was first uploaded three years ago. Not to mention the lack of any sort of artifacting anywhere. And the fact that the artist has... 800+ active posts spanning almost two decades.

Not to mention that her left leg seems to be both on top of the right one and next to it at the same time.

  • post #9594888 that sand castle sure has some non-euclidean architecture right there.
  • pixiv #132094573 Fuyuan has a stick up its' ass, high heels' ornaments don't match.
  • post #9606472 has some weirdness with clouds and waves.
  • post #9908097 not sure what to think about water level between left side and right but it makes me seasick.

bigpicklesman is an AI prompter.

They started uploading later this year (around July)
The only thing in their bio is

絵を淡々と載せます。

"I will post pictures leisurely."

Yet, they did not specify the usage of AI anywhere.

Edit: (Actually, I have no idea how we dealt with AI creators. At which point do we use the ai-generated tag, rather than nuking their entire works? I would appreciate it if anyone can let me know.)

Do you have any more substantial proof? Like AI artifacts in an uploaded post? Artists can start posting at any time; them only starting this year is not proof enough that they use AI.

Edit: (Actually, I have no idea how we dealt with AI creators. At which point do we use the ai-generated tag, rather than nuking their entire works? I would appreciate it if anyone can let me know.)

If by nuking you mean expunging from the database, we don't do that here. We tag the AI usage (ai-generated/ai-assisted), flag for "deletion" (hiding from normal view), and move on.

For what it's worth, ai-assisted isn't against the rules either, unless we deem the AI usage is too much.

Alright, I understand that this might not be 100% proof that this person is using AI. But I'm pretty confident in this, which is why I'm posting here for more opinions. Sorry about the wall of text in advance.

I feel like asanagi shion is pretty obviously tracing over AI for all of their recent work, with the rendering either being painted over or heavily referenced from AI as well. Their works definitely have an AI feel just from a glance, but I know that saying something just "looks like AI' isn't a good enough argument, so here's some more reasoning:

- Their style had a sudden improvement in anatomy about 2 years ago and a very sudden improvement in rendering shortly after, and they've been putting out tons of art that all happens to look like the generic, glossy stable diffusion style since.

- Almost all of their art is the same resolution (1024x1408, which is also divisible by 8) with only occassional changes to the height. Also, the poses, perspective, and framing of all of their art are extremely similar to each other, with some being exactly the same. This isn't inherently a giveaway (real artists that reuse poses definitely exist) but all of the poses and compositions are very similar to those found in AI works. (ai-generated paizuri status:deleted to demonstrate, hey, post #7612019 even has the exact same background found in a lot of asanagi shion's works!)

- The rendering/art of the eyes is often considerably lesser quality compared to the rest of the rendering, which is likely because the eyes are being redrawn entirely instead of just painted over.

- There's an absolutely absurd amount of this art that's been pumped out over the last two years. Extremely prolific artists aren't unheard of, but they often have simpler or sketchier artstyles that allow them to work more quickly. Posting such highly-rendered art at the pace they do is very strange.

However, this artist seems to do a decent job of painting over obvious AI artifacts or mistakes, so I can't find much that would "definitively" prove that they're using AI. (I'd imagine you could probably find some if you really looked through their posts... but I've already looked through and analyzed way too much samey paizuri art so that I could write this out, and I don't really feel like looking at more.)
Would this be enough to label them as ai-assisted?

From the OP's twitter, looks like bigpicklesman can draw, and some of their earlier works do have sketches.
It's up to whether did they use AI to speed up the process or not.

Any thoughts on post #10475517? The lace trimmings, braid ornaments and bats are suspicious to me.

Yes, even I am seeing lots of artifacts in this one.

Is it okay to ask someone as to why they removed a flag from post? Probably in private message I assume.

Be respectful and not accusatory, don't pester them with multiple PMs and give them a full day to answer. That usually works for me, though I'm not flagging as many posts nowadays.

post #10474224
Flag without justification. Please tag or refute.

If it's about post #10475517, I'll just go ahead and say that I'm not at all convinced that this artist with years of experience dating to way before AI was a thing, with old works already looking very skillfully made, used AI here. Nothing in that posts stands out as particularly suspicious to me.
