AI-generated art check thread

Posted under General

I had a bit of a second thought with my arguments in the previous post (forum #414501) because of when these were posted to Pixiv, but now I think I've got a better argument and now I've decided to just make a new post rather than editing my previous one multiple times.

While 2022 is the earliest year AI-generated art first appeared in Danbooru, AI-gen tools have existed before, and Artbreeder has been one since at least 2019. Of course, these were not as as the tools that exist now, but as shown in website's gallery from late 2021, it's capable of generating scenery.

Most of JAChrysant's posts on Pixiv date before February 2022, the oldest being posted in December 2021. Most of the posts have a resolution of 828x512 with the notable exception of post #9632865, which was posted to Pixiv in 2025.

If you go to Artbreeder's gallery some of the scenery posts have a resolution of 828x512 (such as this one)

In post #9759963, the trees look smudgy and the anatomy of one of the trees on the right doesn't really make sense. The leaves in the top in post #9759862 looks like it's blending with the sky. There's a dark patch of something in post #9759797 that I'm not sure what that's supposed to be, and note the broken tree structures too.

If these are AI-generated then they might be the oldest AI-generated posts to be posted here.

I'm not certain to be honest. Looking through their art, there were times when I thought "this is human" and times when I thought "this might be AI"; I could probably use another pair of eyes. I will say their account isn't acting like an AI account though. They're not constantly pumping art out and they're talking about stuff unrelated to what they're posting.

Appreciate you looking through their xitter. I guess my main concern besides not being able to tell if it's ai is how fresh the account is and you're right about how little art they posted instead of flooding shit

I would be cautious about them. The eye irregularities, similar poses, misshapen buttons, failure at pattern consistency, sweater and body being stuck together by a bra strap and hiragana (barely visible on one picture) make me feel something's wrong.

From another barrel, ludus mio, thoughts on them? Some pictures not uploaded here but on the same source website have melty eyes as the most noticeable issue, post #10655921 has hair irregularities, for example both shoulder straps, lots of melty lines, inconsistencies like below waist, her left side. post #10641116 artifacts, melty lines, something weird on the tail next to her left hand, resolution, post #10641117 messed up second katakana, wrong eyes, messed up ear cover and the dangle hanging from it, a strand of hair cut at the bottom of the sports bra, resolution. Edit: Oh, also post #10599493 Gold Ship's eyes. And whatever's happening to the girls below, being split at several heights.

I'm not seeing the problem with the fingers? The hands are all angled or holding something.

The first two you have a point, but post #10237204 doesn't make sense for the thumb to be completely invisible as if it doesn't exist at all. And post #10237188 is particularly egregious in that regard. That last one also has a completely random clump of hair that isn't connected to anything at all and is just lying on the ground...

I suggest for you to do a simple exercise with your hand. You totally can make the thumb invisible without much effort, especially from that angle. Also unless AI made enough progress at that time, watercolor having tidemarks is quoted as a decent test if the picture is real.

C'mon, applying simple digital filters is like one of the oldest tricks in the "hiding AI" book. Unless the work is shown in a real-life context, it's pretty easy to make convincing faux traditional media nowadays, so it's not a particularly useful test regardless of what you're trying to prove or disprove.

People have drawn bad perspective and bad hands since time immemorial, you don't need a wannabe sentient piece of silicon for that.
