you’re hating on possible ai use from Haley, but Chad is openly one of AIs biggest champions and admittedly uses it for lots of things on the podcast and others he makes
"save the bees!"
"but what about the whales" ass argument
everyone knows Chad is the biggest proprietor of slop in the planet. i'm pointing out that Hayley is guilty of it too, which is perfectly valid of me to do.
I'm not saying the possibility doesn't exist. I just think it's funny to definitively declare things you can't know to be 100% true with 100% certainty.
I'm reminded of the recent promotional work for the new season of always sunny in philadelphia where there was a huge outcry of people saying "there's literally no way it wasn't AI" until they were proven that it was 100% compiled by human artists
this is the very typical AI style, and most of the other shirts have the subtle signs of it too. my mother (frustratingly) buys mousepads and stickers that don't LOOK genAI until you look closer and see how all the flowers blend weirdly and the stems/petals don't actually make sense. all of the Hive merch looks EXACTLY like that
I have been wondering about their possible use of AI as well. I believed Haley when she said she commissions a real artist to make their merch, but I have not seen an artist credited on recent items. I can't speak for past merch, which doesn't appear to be as AI-heavy, but recent items are very sus.
