Anyway, out of curiosity, I ran it through https://wasitai.com/. This is what it tells me.
We are quite confident that this image, or significant part of it, was created by AI.
OP is catching some grief for using an AI AI-detection tool, but I also use an AI AI-detection tool when I’m not sure, and I’m wondering we else we can do? The supposed AI image-generators are getting better, five fingers and all, and I’m not art critic enough to always be certain. It’s a problem that’ll only get worse as the fake artmakers get better.
I will say, AI AI-detection and then rejection is the only use I’ve found for AI.
The problem with AI detectors are that if you try to protect your art against being used in training, using nightshade for example, will make the detector say it’s AI enerated, even if it’s fullt hand crafted.
