Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
So yeah... maybe the turtle slowly waking up that he was just a Laptog for reddit and thrown away as soon as they didnt need him anymore ( moderation is allways a volunteer thing and shouldnt be like a 2nd job ).
Awkwardtheturtle was most likely the same asshole who unjustly banned a professional artist from /r/art on falsified accusations of using machine learning AI to produce his artwork.
It's almost hilarious that this guy was given a taste of his own medicine.
Oh, is that's who it is? If so, fuck them.
Weren't they a massive dick about as well, it wasn't just an accusation without evidence.
Seems like everyone here deserves eachother.
This case is actually even funnier because that mod turned out to be right! The art was AI generated! Aspects of other people's watermarks and other AI giveaways were left in the final art so either the whole picture was ai generated and the sketches were done after or it's all AI generated.
Edit: this might've been wrong. I'm unable to find my original source to back this up so take this story as hearsay. I'll leave it up for history sake though.
Are you sure about that? I know that was the case with some recent AI-accused artists, but I haven't seen this specific case mentioned.
The reason I ask is that:
A. There's nothing I can find online. If you have a link, I'd love to be proven wrong.
B. After looking again art the image in question from January of this year, I don't see any watermarks or AI tells (hands look perfect and natural, and I couldn't spot any watermark residuals).
I think I might've been wrong here. I had heard and looking into it at the time but it's possible I mixed multiple stories in my head that happened at the same/similar time. My original source was from a news YouTube channel that I watch/listen to but it wasn't the headlining news of the video and it was months ago so I have no idea how to search it and see what sources they used.
Sorry if I accidentally spread any misinformation here.
No worries! You realized you might be wrong and corrected yourself. I forgive you, lol!
Apparently the artist provided a lot of evidence that it was his own work and had even provided the PSD files to journalists who reached out to him.
This seems unusually high-effort for 'AI generated art.'
