C) doesn’t work much anymore because AI is becoming more advanced, but just look at the fingers. There are a lot more signs obviously but those are just quick ways to tell, atleast they work for me lol.

[@CelestrialCreations0]

Derpy and melted looking eyes are usually a sign to. Usually ai defaults to a blank expression to.

Here is the funny part. I can't draw, never dabbled in it beyond what I had to do in the elementary school but when I have an idea of what I want AI can never deliver, and not even by some small margin. It's absolutely atrocious at getting what I want. It would be much easier for me to learn drawing and make a piece of art myself instead of begging AI to finally get it right. Sure, it can get something absolutely generic out of it but If I want a humanoid mech with a chestpiece that resembles a torso of a King Crab from Battletech that transfers into a pair of robotic hips by getting thinner to give it resemblance of triangular, heroic silouhette, a pair of arms with very specific weapons, hands, huge rounded pauldrons and a knightly head on top of this torso I can't get that for shit. That's why If I would ever want an art I would ask a human to do the work, not a computer. Computer can not comprehend the web of references and design considerations necessary to understand the task at hand and make the piece work. Human using it can, but won't be able to make it work because all of his commands go through the console that can't even comprehend anything beyond signal and lack of it.

The point of 'but real artists also make these sort of mistakes' is very valid, but as someone that's been drawing for years and been friends with multiple artists over years, it is VERY obvious what's a human mistake and what's AI slop. I suppose there's no real way to explain it without having that experience and memory bank, but a good way to spot these is ask yourself: ->**"Would an artist that can render art so professionally, know colour theory and shade well, make this mistake so brazenly?"** We all have our strengths and weaknesses of course, but someone that can seemingly paint up to par with professional standards will most likely know that there are 5 fingers on and hand and that breasts aren't just water balloons that sit awkwardly. Also something not mentioned that is very often seen with AI 'art' is: look at the POSING of characters. AI heavily favours candid poses that work towards making the character look pretty. If you see dynamic, interesting and unusual poses it is most likely a sign of a real artist.

[@felix-xd4mx]

A LOT of beginners these days study randomly on the internet, they don't follow the "correct art steps". so they get really good at rendering but don't have good foundations at all. this account is definitely AI and im not talking about them. i see people like this all the time like "wow they're really good at rendering but they need to work on anatomy". i think it's really sad that AI art will make them be doubted

[@Russkayadevushkaa]

Ok so i cant draw good dynamic poses at all. I am not an artist?

[@kinmlindern1430]

i think that rather than saying "humans wouldn't make these mistakes" it should be "humans wouldn't make them this routinely". there are plenty of people who make the mistake of six fingers or forgetting to add lighting to a part where it should be, both in and out of professional spaces because these are perfectly human errors to make. i also think it's unfair to say that artists who draw mostly candid shots aren't human artists. i have seen my fair share of artists in the past who got criticism and hate, no matter how good they were, because all they drew were boring candid shots, and they draw them because, as you said, they make characters look pretty.

Another good way to pinpoint ai art to me personally is the question "if every brushstroke has an intention, what was the intention of xy brush stroke? What does it contribute to the piece?" You start seeing nonsensical brushstrokes and things that don't belong/make no sense. And ai does a lot of that.

[@algozord]

I 100% get your point, but as an artist, I know sometimes that I do stupid shit with my art, like not 100% accurate light bloob on nose or wrinkles on clothes that don't make 100% sence, however, indeed her "art" look like Ai generated piece with touchup on it

[@3v1l73ddy]

I disagree, the focal part of the image is the face so having other details be less refined is a method of following that. The lack of lines holding the falling star is a common style choice and clearly having the earrings be asymmetrical is a choice that can be easily made by a human. However, there's definitely weirdness going on with the definition between the sleeve and body and the sweater and hair that don't feel consistent skill or style wise and I can't come up with a human reason for why it would look like that. It doesn't look like something a human would do. I also guess your comment about the stars being "blobs" could be a point since they're the most lackluster part of the picture in shape and rendering... I kinda like the asymmetry though, kinda wanna nab the idea for my own design lol.

AI is the epitome of laziness. Just how uninspired do you have to be to turn your art into glossy nonsensical garbage?

Why are people so depserate to jump on the hype train? As an artist, I can never imagine turning something I pour my heart and soul into, into soulless AI garbage. My art is what makes me human, it's what communicates my thoughts and feelings, my ideas and my inner world. Why would I ever want to turn away from my humanity? And why would I want to turn my accounts into something akin to a bot? I can't understand, what is there to be proud of when you deceive people and when you post AI for quick clout? What is there to be proud of when the "drawing" isn't yours? Where is the sense of achievement and joy in reaching a big following with your own sweat and tears? Where is the effort? And most importantly: what is there to enjoy about an account that quite literally not just posts AI garbage, but also soulless bot-like captions? Where did the human communication go? Why is the internet becoming home for AI and bots? Didn't it use to be home for people who wanted to communicate with the rest of the world in an accessible way? Once again, where did that communication go? And what especially baffles me is when you clearly have the skill and the ability to draw by yourself throughout the entire process, but for some reason refuse to. And what I'm disappointed by the most, is that this is somehow normalized "Oh just get over it" "This is the future and AI is here to stay, you either get crushed by it or join it" "You're just scared of the technological advancement and that it will replace you" "AI is also art" "It allows art to be more accessible to people" "Why spend so much time on learning how to draw when I can use AI?" "Nobody cares about the process behind the image, we just want to see the result" "Artists can use AI to aid them" "AI is a tool" "AI makes jobs easier and allows people to create an image without needing to commission anybody" And a whole lot of other excuses people come up with What a bunch of blatant BS

almost every mistake you noted are mistakes i make in my own art while drawing it. some of the inconsistencies in character design of like ariel and those are things that could just be creative liberty. artist dont have ro draw a cannon character exactly how they appear in their original piece you can change the desgin and play with it thats the beauty of art people get to show their different perspectives. while i do agree everything you pointed out is AI i wanted to bring to light some of the things you said are things real artists can and do do. also the "braids" on the one black character were actually dreads and ive seen real artists draw dreads like that. and the last thing i wanted to say is i do not see anything inappropriate about the Ariel drawing with no strap on the back. her chest is fully covered and her back is already cannon 99% exposed. i donnot see how showing the remaining inch of back space that was covered by the strap makes it any more revealing or inappropriate??? like you can already see her whole back. also backs are not sexual so i really do not understand why they are being made out to be suggestive just because things that cover the chest also tend to go around the back. duh where else would they attach to?? but her chest is already just as covered as in the real Ariel movie and her original design i don't see how or why anyone would make the strap, that covers an inch width of her back, being missing a sexual thing. in alot of mermaid desgins the chest peices are only attached to the breasts and nothing else its pretty common. anyway i fond your video helpful in detecting Ai i just wnated to say real artists can do many of those things and shouldn't be discredited for some of the things you used to reason their work was AI and i am sick of people really society in general sexualizing paets of the body that have nothing to do with sex. as if women and girls werent sexualized enough. they shouldn't even be in the fiest place. no hate to you i understand your comments were all in good nature i just dont think people realized how they contribute to upholding harmful social norms.

[@terezipyrope1364]

glad someone else said this, cause so many real artists are gonna be falsely accused just for stylistic choices or not being perfect with things like anatomy if this kinda info spreads. The best way to tell in my opinion is still by artifacting and looking at how different parts of the art might blend, or sometimes anything where the more you look at it the more it just doesn't make sense even for a beginner artist. Things like anatomy errors (aside from big issues like hands and extra parts) and having trouble to draw certain hair types or drawing too stiffly are still mistakes artists will make when they are not experienced or rushing to finish. Not coloring something or not knowing how to draw side views or dreadlocks is not always a sign of AI, because it is trained on the mistakes of all the artists its creators have stolen from.

[@itsmarsh._.mellow]

@terezipyrope1364 yes exactly! I've seen so many artists experienced and inexperienced make almost all the mistakes she is talking about it just seems odd for that to be a marker of AI when humans do that exact thing and like you said that's the whole reason ai makes those mistakes. if I myself did digital art by these standards my work would be recognized as AI a lot because it's just so common to make these mistakes and I don't always have a burning desire to make everything perfectly understandable and even. I like the messy side of my work it's what make sit feel like me and not just perfectionist override.

[@Seraitsukara]

Exactly what I was thinking. There are legitimate concerns that make me believe AI was used, but much of what was mentioned here was really nitpicky. It's this kind of over scrutinization that's going to lead to real artists being accused of using AI. Real artists make similar mistakes, and have similar discrepancies where you can tell what part of the painting they have experience with, and what parts they don't. It's even a common tip, or at least used to be, that you focus the detailing on the focal point, leaving other areas softer and less rendered. And the example with the moon....has she never changed her mind while working on a painting? It looks more like the first moon was drawn, then they decided to go with the other one, and the first one hadn't been erased/deleted yet. I do that kinda thing all the time. Same with the one where the eyes shrank. Both sets of eyes were even shown at the same time, showing both had been drawn. They just decided to shrink the eyes as they refined it.

Lord ai is “fun”, I really wanted to get into art as a career but not anymore if I have to deal with companies being cheap and using ai rather than humans.

[@DeadVoxel]

I'm ngl, the mindset of "I can't draw a horse so I'll make AI do it for me!" is so weird. Like, if you can't draw a horse, why do you think AI is any better at it? An AI generated horse logo would suck anyway. That's such a ridiculous ad And I do agree with you on the art career thing. I still believe there are companies out there with a strong policy against AI, so I recommend looking into it if you still want to pursue an art career! Not all is lost. But it's true that those are going to be much harder to find now I also somewhat relate to that statement because, although I never really wanted an art career as it would suck all the fun out of drawing for me, I still took it into consideration because that's one of the not many things I'm good at in this life, at least it could have gotten me money before.

[@gray_rain]

You're definitely right that she's using AI!! But here's a tip for making your arguments stronger in the future: focus only on the elements that are *definitely* AI. What I mean is this. One of the strongest tells for an AI image isn't necessarily the hands or anatomical accuracy (though limbs blending into each other or awkward 6th fingers is obvious enough). The number one tell is ***details that are non-sensical that are ALSO rendered/polished***. You do a great job of this @16:25 . The whole image there is very polished. Everything has been "carefully rendered". Yet the details of the sweater are still complete nonsense. It's all very awkward heart-like shapes that get wonky and bleed into other parts of the sweater. No one who takes the time to render an image to this level will leave that kind of obvious structural issue while they're in-the-weeds, zoomed in, and polishing those small sections of their piece. Similar to @20:34 . The whole piece is very polished, but the headstock on the guitar and the number and shape of the tuners is complete nonsense. High level of polish on details that are nonsense is the number one tell. Not just nonsense details by themselves. However, you sort of weaken your argument @23:19 . This is not a very polished piece. The sketch is being left in as the drawing to paint under. I've definitely drawn worse hands in a sketch, before. The hair band being nonsense is a decent point, but the point about the hands isn't nearly as strong because it's very much within the realm of human error. Overall, you're right that she's using AI in some way. Either tracing, color sampling, direct referencing, or some combination of the 3. 100% no doubt. Just be careful in the future to only use the strongest arguments. I say that because the artist your talking about has "rebutted" your arguments by posting full timelapses of the *least AI looking* work that you criticized. Whereas if you only criticized stuff like the girl @16:25 and similar cases, she would have had a much harder time coming back with a seemingly legitimate response. But because you used examples that may or may not have been AI, she was able to latch onto those and use them to "disprove" your claims (even though your basic premise that she's using AI is still correct). Thanks for calling this behavior out.

See this is why I’m afraid to show progress stuff on my art. I do a lot of my sketching on paper. My sketches are often scribbly and show multiple placements I’m considering. I don’t do speed paints. I don’t show my process at all. All I need is someone pouring over my work with a critical eye telling me and others I used AI just because I don’t think my process is great or worth sharing. I’m still learning digital art myself, and will likely never do speed paints or show progress images. It feels a little too math class for me. I’m not going to show everyone each step I take because others decided to cheat. It sucks that people assume you didn’t do your own work if you don’t “prove” it. It’s setting a precedent that customers expect to be able to rifle through your files and question your artistic decisions. No thanks, I’m good. Maybe my stuff just isn’t that interesting or deep.

[@autumngrace3915]

So it’s not errors that are the issue. That happens. It’s the lack of consistency. In some pieces things are rendered one way, then completely different in another.

[@ElocinMoraesCosta]

Some AI artifacting you missed in the earlier images, is the clipping of certain things just blending into each other as well as nonsensical artifacting. Even if she's drawing over the AI images this is clearly AI because there's so much artifacting. Another point in the timelapses is how the rendering is done, and how much artifacting you can see in some of them (the Hailey Bailey one especially on the hair), and knowing AI can fake timelapses this is def fishy. This is saddening especially seeing a proper artist succumb to this.

Holy shit this is actually kind of insane to see the difference. I don’t wanna make a generalization but personally me and most of the other artists I know would be way to perfectionist to leave the backgrounds looking like that like the butterflies at 8:11 if you pause and look you can tell with the butterflies because one morphs into the earrings and some of the tiny pink hearts turned into just dots. I think she probably drew it in her style or at the very least did a super bare bones version and then did all the details with AI. That made me feel so like icky when I saw it. Her old art had so much heart and you could literally see her improvement with every new piece :(

It's when the mistakes don't line up with what an artist of that skill would make mistakes like that over and over. 11:47 See here. An artist who can draw like she can would not draw scales on her arm. It's also how the details layer, if they're all blending together and there's not of distinct separation. A lack of consistency in how things are rendered is another sign. 15:42 You can see how the hands are blended together.

hey, just an hobbyist artist here. Just wanted to point out that yes, it's AI art for sure and there is no excuse when you pose as a non AI artist to pretend like it's yours. But some of the criticisms of the arts are actually a bit wrong. Let me explain. At 17:00 you mention how she uses the same pose multiple times or some other drawings have mistakes like jasmine arm clearly not properly placed etc. While this is 100% true, it's also things, we, small time "artists" (sorry I don't like to call myself that as an hobbyist) do all the time. Yeah we fall back to drawing the same pose, we make mistakes with hands, we mess up the lighting direction while coloring etc. So while this is 100% warranted to illustrate the fakery of that person, it kinda hurt the little self confidence some of us might have left when the criticism is painted with such a large brush if you know what I mean.

The sketches kinda look like draw-overs. Like she always gets the pose exactly right on the first swing. I know when I'm drawing I'll have to re-adjust things like eyes or arms because one will be too low, or the silhouette won't look nice, or I just straight up don't like it. (at least, in her newer posts. Some older posts have the adjusting) Of course, she could just be that good, or just not showing those parts, so I think anything short of the author recording herself physically drawing out a thing from start to finish, the debate will never be settled. (and maybe even not then because the artist can clearly draw, but the accusation is they're using AI to pump out their work faster and cleaner) So in conclusion my best guess is she gets poses from somewhere, maybe AI maybe not, then draws over them and adds her own spin on the pose. Whether that would count as AI art I don't know. Possibly not.

[@feagree1036]

I don't know, something with this video doesn't sit right with me. I am a self taught artist, and many mistakes you point out look like the ones I could possibly make, some things just look like artistic liberties, and some look like the artist was just fed up with the drawing thus deciding to not go that hard at some parts of it. For example I believe that my drawings always have the best hairs and sometimes I'd spend like an hour at hair, and another hour at rest of it, body, face, clothes(an hour is like random time I just mean that there is a disproportion of time and focus), of course it would look different than the rest then, whats sus here is that sometimes it looks like the same thing is more detailed in places, but the proces of rendering might just be the reason here, no idea. But if the face is her strongest thing or she just likes to draw them I don't see why there would be no diferences between the care and the rest of the drawing. The fingers in that one drawing where they were clasped together are sus also, but they literally teach you that in the ART TUTORIALS if you cant draw it just try and trick the eye into believing it is what it's suposed to be, and we all know that AI struggles with hands, but so do artists, the second hand that was pointed out, the one with uneven fingernails? I do that. Sometimes I'd have a drawing with person having literally two different hands cus hands are hard, and I just would decide to leave it at that, cus what I need is practice and finishing stuff not polishing it so that it looks perfect 100% of the time, because I would not be able to finish a thing. And the things about strange things in lineart/skeches is that if you ever did a collab where you lined somebody elses sketch it becomes quite obvious that some people just put random lines here and there that are only for them to understand. I'm not saying this is not AI but I couldn't agree that it is either, this example is Very muddy to me, and I'd like to give people benefit of the doubt, and empathy, after all If I, a real artist, were the subject of that kinda video, because my art is probably inconsistent since I either make huge leaps, or thake breaks that hinder my progres, and had all of my human mistakes pointed, and basically laughed at that they are so bad that only stupid robot who doesn't think could make them, because *I* should now not to make them I would be actually quite upset. And no doubt other people who see their real human mistakes in these art you've shown are. This is not an obvious AI usage case and I think we should not pass the judgement on it, unless you have definite proof which your video, in my opinion lacks. Now the text of the posts looks more AI generated than the drawings imo, but that doesn't mean that 1. This person doesn't just write like that for some kind of engagemeng sake (?idk how insta works here but like I hope you got what I mean), and 2 if it is AI doesn't mean the art is. Sorry if this is all over the place 😅, I hope this is understandable, bc I sometimes struggle with conveying what exactly I mean sometimes, and this is not my first language either.

[@dashy2.0]

I can relate to everything you've said ^-^ and there's been other people pointing out that a lot of the errors that were addressed in the video can be made by any real artist too, and I'm glad there's so many people that agree; something else that I can especially empathise with is when it's said that having an inconsistent art style is suspicious 😭 and a few more people have now commented on kikowah's last post calling out that inconsistency; but if you look at her old drawings, the ones that people supposedly agree were made without AI (even according to this video's creator), you can see the same tendency to change between different art styles... It's something I do as well, but I've seen it said that it's better to have a recognisable/more consistent style if you want to gain popularity, so maybe it's assumed that any big artists follow that but yeah! even though I can see people agreeing that the reasons in the video aren't very good, they're still apparently convinced that kikowah is using AI I just replied to your comment because it was nice to see someone else leaving room for uncertainty maybe everyone else here really is just better than me at recognising AI, but I'm just not as confident that it is, and for some reason I'm clinging to the hope that it isn't at the very least I hope there isn't AI in every single picture, and that most of the things that people pointed out aren't really the consequence of AI and can be explained some other way I hope it will be comforting for you to know you're not alone in your opinion, as it was for me

I think the pressure of social media feedback, wanting interactions, and comparison can lead a lot of people down the AI road. I’ve seen it happen in so many creative outlets anymore it’s not funny. Some people that make art get tired of not “making it/being noticed”, some people that can’t use a pencil figure it’s an easy in, and to your average person buying stuff it’s all art, one and the same, unfortunately. I’ve been in the art field for almost 30 years and there are days that the proliferation of AI art just becomes overwhelming and depressing. I get it, I was working and struggling through a recent work, and had for a split second, a thought of “man, I bet AI could…” and I stopped myself and just went to bed. AI “art” is just a weird way to allow some to ride on the label of being an artist, and it’s only going to get worse.

I think the better gauge for ai art isnt the mistakes necessarily, since sometimes people take shortcuts or are absentminded, or just tired. However, the few things that i noticed is the details ai will draw will have no follow through. You bring it up but itll be straps disappearing, fingers vanishing, etc. Another is Style inconsistency. This artist poaches from disney and (probably) loish, so we hard pivot from disney concept art, loishs sketch style, and to the typical 3d render look without much overlap. With one of the posts she probably prompted a loish piece and asked to make it more disney, since that glowing fish design is exactly like something loish would make. When you're sketching thats (when i think) your personal style is the most apparent, since it is how you Most Comfortably get ideas down. If theres such discrepancy between sketches, theyre probably generated using famous sketch prompts (again, disney concept art as one)

I'm pretty sure Nimbus 2021 is a reference to the Nimbus 2000 flying sports broom from Harry Potter.

[@C3l3st14l..]

"the lighting looks like fartificial inte-" well you just called me an AI "artist"

[@connecticuti]

15:40 , this could be a common mistake, it doesnt mean shes using ai, i mean, ai just fucks up the hands to the point where you can't even fix it, for the eyes, i also think its a common mistake and not ai, 15:18, the uncolored hairtie could be a sign that the artwork isn't ai, i suspect that, on some artworks, she uses ai/traces and while also posting it among her original artworks that shes done.

[@ruffr4bb1t]

I considered the idea that it’s okay to use ai for prompts but the more I think about it it probably makes people just miss details they would put in themselves but don’t anyways

[@gregorymurphey2115]

I'm sure someone said this but Nimbus is a magic broom company in Harry Potter. Nimbus 2021 is a broom model

[@achicken5422]

Subbed the instant I heard that Majoras mask music, this shit is so scummy though. It shows that they have some conception of how bad AI is for people but they care more about outputting slop than improving their own abilities.

[@Kennydahugger]

I loved this video and now I’m dying because I can’t find another video like it. You are perfection

[@Stephnbeans]

the ai art looks like a mix of disney, chibi, and gretel lusky’s art style

[@noraraab2939]

Your voice is so relaxing- I could listen to so many of these videos where you sleuth out AI art and show evidence that it is AI. It would be very informative for people to know the signs.

[@pbbbtttt8185]

some of these i do think have ai vibes, but shit like "oh this braid is stiff" or "this lighting is odd" are entirely subjective, and common "errors" that artists can make. it is also possible to purposefully draw in different styles across different pieces. i am also not convinced that them: a) skipping steps b) showing the different layers in lieu of a speed paint means that they're faking it. this video is just silly to me. lol

[@G_come_Gelo]

also op talking about how much ai is bad etc without crediting the composers of the music used in the video + not censoring the names and saying “do not harass her” as a backup. what a clown

[@AMightyStorm]

yeah this is AI-assisted art but just to be clear everyone, do not just assume that every artist who is on social media and goes offline for a year or so is not drawing during that time and therefore shouldn't have a jump in skill when they start posting again. Some artists go offline for a while but continue to create during that time, others don't, it's totally dependent on their situation and mindset/mental health at the time. I've seen both instances. But I'd also like to offer up the other possibility which is that an artist who has creative block/burnout for a long period of time can still technically "level up" their skill just by observing the work of others and of course observing the world around them. This happened to me when I hadn't finished a single piece of art for almost 3 years and then started creating one day and my art was better than it was before the block, simply because my awareness of form and lighting and color had expanded a ton because I was being observant during that creative block. So yeah, just be careful about making assumptions about artist hiatuses.

I literally just bought the Jelly Style Brushes pack you said used an AI image X_X TBF!! It has been my favorite brush pack ever and I love every single brush in it, and they are exactly like the other example photos. I am actually interested why you think that one is AI? I dont really see any red flags on it EDIT: I also want to point out it was not one year in between the time jump. It was more like 6 months. The last "real" artwork she did was december 2022 then the alleged AI upload was in June 2023, which is not a full year. that makes it even more sketchy no pun intended. Also I noticed before she had much more diversity in faces and poses, whereas after they all feel same facey, same expressions, same featueres.... it is really suspicious. And there is no way she could develop so many DIFFERENT skills so quickly (backgrounds, clothing, anatomy, etc.) I mean not impossible but like....

[@aspicycrow3733]

I also just got those brushes and didn’t notice any red flags, now I’m kinda worried lol

[@saturn7280]

out of topic but the twilight princess soundtrack caught me off guard in the best way possible

[@cc_the_rebel]

Nahh my red flags go up when they start saying "dear" like bro I've watched too many scambait channels when the scammers start using "dear" in their vocabulary to swindle people you missed me with that 💀

[@victoriaivory2735]

5:46 probably someone already explained this but it's a reference to harry potter because there was a broom called the "Nimbus 2000"

[@wrenithilduincats]

Yep it's a HP reference, which it makes sense considering the vibes of her art at that time.

[@karolik6630]

Just wanted to say that everything doesnt have look exactly as a refrence/movie accurate, its always more funner to add your own head cannons to characters and even change their clothing to what you like more or just to simplifie it because it can be damn hard some times to draw exactly like in the movies. MAKING THE CHARACTERS MORE DETAILED AND UNIQUE TO YOU IS SUPPER FUN AFTER ALL :3 (btw i dont mean no hate i just had to get it off my chest to remind ya its tottaly ok to make popular animated characters desing to more your liking! again no hate. SUNSINE AND CREATIVITY TO YALL!!!!

[@fourcatsandagarden]

"have a blessed day" every freaking time. its almost a tell unto itself.

[@annablazeacnh1659]

5:47 nimbus is the fake brand name of the broomsticks in harry potter lol

[@vega2122]

there are ai "art" generators that allow you to input a rough sketch and then have the ai do the rest of the work. my theory is that she mightve used something like that for some of these.
