        pay attention to how intentional things are. nothing in this picture is motivated. the man has his arm raised, but not in a welcoming manner, more like he’s saying hi. he also isnt looking at the viewer. there is also no discernable landmark or important features. the only other thing is a bus, which doesnt have a door on the right, which i dont know about you, but every bus ive seen in north America has the door on the right.

        a real advertisement for Canada would likely ask you to visit or experience something about Canada, like a national park or iconic building in a city, or have a recognizable public figure. it absolutely would not bring up something objectively negative like being deported in the same space as an invitation to visit.

        all im saying is that, there is a basic language to art and this reads like an alien that is aware that there are rules but does not understand why there are rules nor how they operate

    Last I check, Canada isn’t accepting asylum applications from Americans, because having a wannabe dictator for president is apparantly not a good enough reason to be granted asylum.

        Line weight. The round eyes. The color. The exact same smile. Same angles to the viewer. 45 or direct… There are so many telltale signs.

            Sure. That’s an AI mistake. I was naming general thematic and design attributes, but composition and content also inform the aware viewer.

          When everyone starts using the same style, it’s either everyone’s hiring the same artist (unlikely) or they used AI.

        Honestly the silver lining with all this is how innately obvious it is what it is currently.

        Literally just reeks of the same level of effort as someone making a meme out of clipart or one of those boomers that uses that fancy Facebook status feature.

        If you need to generate a hero image to make your witty tweet good enough to share, maybe go back to the drawing board

        In this case:

        • this comic artstyle is very characteristic of AI, down to the line weight, facial expression (these soulless eyes and smile), and how the character is positioned;
        • the bus has no door;
        • the picture has a yellow-ish tint, which has been plaguing certain AI image generators ever since the AI Ghibli trend. They likely overtrained their slop machines on Studio Ghibli works and various other “cozy” artstyles/pictures.

        it’s the exact same style used in almost all ai slop comics lately. you can tell by face alone; it’s almost identical in all of them, even with different features (like facial hair).

          So these are 2 images I asked AI for, which are admittedly terrible. But beyond that, I’m unsure of the distinguishing features that pegs it as AI. Any guidance (other than never make these images again - for obvious reasons)?

            no, I don’t know what you used but this is not what I’m talking about. you can find inconsistencies, colors that don’t make sense, a whole set of issues but that’s AI in general.

            what I’m talking about a very specific style that vaguely apes the ligne claire style of comics, adding an old paper filter and completely lacking soul. they can have zero “errors” and still be recognizable because they are so exact and eerily similar in their style. there’s a difference between a person drawing in a particular style and a machine emulating it.

            You can see these comics on Lemmy from time to time, although it might be getting less common since it gets negative comments every time. I’m pretty sure they come from one particular comic generator. or possibly multiple that use the same underlying model.

            They have the same soulless faces, usually very limited and recognizable facial expressions. i recently saw one with dinosaurs and even they had the exact facial expressions that I’ve seen in other AI slop comics. they also have the same faux lettering font for text.

              I think, ChatGPT usually produces those. Very recognisable, and remind me of one comic artist that also makes characters with eerie smiles, simplified style, but also very dark humour and traumas. Can’t remember their name, though.

            If you look at the details, there are signs, like structures or geometry that don’t make sense or aren’t aligned properly. Things an artist with intent would have no reason to draw that way.

            There isn’t a real way to tell anymore other then using ai detector (there are a few free websites). What people are referring to is the specific style chatgpt uses by default when making comics. They are currently the best for generating comics with text, but they overlay their style so the hate isn’t directed towards them. We are very close to having open source tools that can generate full comic pages with text in whatever style asked of it.

      I don’t even know what it is. Ive stared at it for at least a solid two minutes looking for errors. It screams AI to me but I cant find that detail that proves it. I hate that this is what sharing pictures online has become. Scrutinizing every little detail to see if I should care or not.

        There’s nothing about this image that can tell you with certainty that it’s AI generated, but it’s an art style that has been popular with AI generated images recently, probably due to the simplicity, which makes it harder for it to make mistakes. The trend means that a lot of junk has been showing up with this style and people have a negative association with it now.

    If you insist on posting Ai slop outside of the dedicated Ai communities please at least tag it so people can filter Ai slop out.
