I allow reposting my art, just link back to me and don't claim the art or characters as your own (unless you're the commissioner of course)!

How To Spot AI (G)
3 weeks agoI'm seeing an increase in accounts posting obviously traced generative AI images that are basically running easy YCH scams on people who are unsuspecting and not knowledgeable about what they should be looking for. They see cheap art that looks "good enough" and support these scammers. So I'm just putting up a quick simple guide for how to spot these charlatans. Unfortunately, with shitty unscrupulous "artists" tracing AI as opposed to posting raw AI images, it's harder to report them and get them removed from FA.
1. An account created in 2025 or 2026 that has "good" art with no history. No artist just pops out being very good at art with absolutely no trail, everyone has a starting point. If they have no history prior to 2025, they are likely tracing AI because they know they can scam people easily.
2. "Good anatomy", but their coloring or lineart look inexperienced. A lack of line width, overly large lines, "pillow shading" or one color shading with a multiply layer. I don't mean just simple lines or coloring, but a noticeable skill gap between how they draw vs how they line or color. Most artists are well rounded at these things and you can tell when someone has been drawing for awhile vs just tracing. This can also apply to people who are just tracing random porn images from Google. It's a very easy tell. On the other side, there are people who are feeding their art into AI to have it colored for them. This is harder to call out besides it having the "style" of AI shading, you usually have to look for markers of the AI failing to render certain details accurately.
3. Style inconsistencies. Maybe one day their eyes look very anime, detailed, and expressive, aybe another it looks Disney-esque or flat, and maybe another it looks more like general furry art. Some artists can draw in different styles, so this is best used in combination with other tells. Usually their "skill" being all over the map and not lining up with the style of what they're tracing.
4. A sudden and dramatic leap in improvement. Growth and learning are a curve. A new artist is not going to go from very basic anatomy to suddenly being a professional art expert with flawless anatomy.
5. A refusal to show timelapses, work files, or stream their art (to disprove claims of tracing AI). Now this isn't guaranteed because some AI tracers have faked timelapses using AI or even chromakeying out the AI layer (turning it green and effectively greenscreening it out) to avoid being caught. With AI faked timelapses, it's still usually pretty easy to tell because AI doesn't understand the process of actual artists. It will fully render hair before the rest of the art is lined, or fully render the eyes before the rest of the face is drawn, or skip an undersketch, etc.
These aren't necessarily fool proof, for me 2 and 4 tend to be the most clearcut in catching onto them but you have to have an "eye" for it. You don't have to throw accusations willy nilly, but be aware and be safe so you avoid being scammed or taken advantage of by unscrupulous grifters who don't care about the harm they're causing because they want the easy money with none of the work.
