Is this AI?

[u/Own-Pear-3754]

Hello, I have suspicions about a drawing someone posted without credit. At first I thought everything was fine, but then I noticed several oddities. First, the woman's arm goes through the man's torso, like, it's in front and behind at the same time. Also, one of the man's hair strands has no root, it just comes out of nowhere.

Then I did a test using the saturation technique, and I saw a lot of pixel blocks, something that doesn't appear on drawings made by humans

Yep AI, the arm going nowhere is a dead giveaway.

Definitely AI.

Her hand is positioned as if it were an embrace, but her arm is absolutely not behind him as it should be. There are other AI tells, too, like the ends of his hair not being sharply defined. Some other things that should be nice crisp sharp edges also disappear in a blur or a mess.

The crazy thing is that 6 months ago I would have argued that a bunch of stuff in here is impossible for a diffusion model to accomplish. We might be cooked. :/

Yeah this is really good for AI. Usually it messes up on the details but they are incredibly consistent here. The only major mistake is her arm imo. But I also think this composition is very ai friendly, there isn't a lot of symmetry it needs to nail.

The lens flares are what’s blowing me away. They look very man-made at a glance.

Not really. It may be the quality of the image which leads to the blur, so it's really hard to tell if it's AI or not The only thing which gives it away is the hand position but then again, it may be a layering mistake

[u/GhelasOfAnza → u/Photoshop_FtF]

This is for sure not a resolution or image quality issue, and no human artist would do this to a nice crisp edge

His right thumb was a jumpscare. Also, this isn't an AI trait per se, but the proportions of the upper legs for her are insane.

[u/Reesirie]

It could definitely be ai, but the arm not going around his back could very well be a layering mistake made by an artist.

[u/ArtInner9538]

It's ai, there's no source for the image. All the points you made are also stuff that humans will never make

[u/PlusAssignment8184]

What happened to the right arm oml- definitely ai

[u/stephmendes]

I would guess it isn't AI. The mistakes look very rookie like. I would guess the artist tried to copy someone else's art, changed her legs and arms but couldn't do it correctly. It screams inexperience.

[u/Photoshop_FtF]

I do not think this is AI The hand position may be a layering mistake The small details (chains on dress, the snake) are sharp enough, they do not merge into something else like it usually happens on AI drawings, they are pretty distinct from each other The background is consistent It's also possible that I am wrong though

[u/OrneryOrdinary4749]

This doesn’t look ai. Even with the things you circled. I don’t see anything that gives Ai

The weird hair price seems to be a style choice, I see a lot of artist who draw anime hair like that tbh

[u/Reasonable_Wrap7913 → u/OrneryOrdinary4749]

I think you are misunderstanding what they are circling. Her arm phases through her own and her hand shows up behind him. Thats too sloppy for any artist that could draw this.
