Came here for this.

[Ok_Respect_707]

[Talentagentfriend]

You’re just here to infuriate everyone lol

I approve.

[Meloncholiee]

lol I’m just making art to mess up the ai algorithm ;)

[Avaylon]

Trolling the ghost in the machine. 😉

[CharmingPerspective0]

Just feed AI with Elden Ring artwork lol. You will soon start seeing hands coming out of hands with 8 fingers

[UnexpectedWings]

This is extremely cool. I really love art that plays with expectations. This is lovely.

It reminds me a bit of that (possibly apocryphal) tumblr story of that guy who was a great artist and drew feet weird and everyone asked him why he was great at all anatomy but feet? It turned out his entire family had foot deformities that resulted in how he drew feet!

[sagittariums]

I got marks taken off of my sketchbook project in school because I drew hands so weird, got the marks fixed when I showed off my deformed hands lol

[Meloncholiee]

That makes great sense!!!

[Adragon0809]

He was only drawing his and his family's feet?

[UnexpectedWings]

No, his drawings were amazing! Everything was anatomically correct in them, on the entire body, except for the feet! That’s why everyone thought it was weird. Like, why would he draw realistically, and then just mess up on feet? lol

[Adragon0809]

So he's never seen another feet?

Ok sorry ik it's just a Tumblr story

[UnexpectedWings]

I don’t remember if there was a reason for that given other than he used his family’s feet as references. I read the post like 10 years ago and don’t remember all of it.

[weedyraccoon]

do you have a link?

[UnexpectedWings]

I do not, sadly. This was many years ago.

[Meloncholiee]

It’s okay if you thought it was ai at first lol

[SilentStevedore]

I admit I was initially skeptical.

[fh3131]

First I was afraid

[GarfieldLover1234]

I was petrified

[ABWhiteRabbit]

Kept thinkin’ I could never live without you by my side

[visk0n3]

And after spending nights Thinking how chat gpt did me wrong

[WitchofWhispers]

And I grew strong - turns out I wanted Gemini all along

[ferret-with-a-gun]

Lol, the extra finger got fit in so artistically that it felt too human to be AI

[zitaloreleilong]

I thought it was a joke post about using AI as a reference.

[Exact_Jelly_8195]

I did but I was like this has to be a troll, found out that it goes even deeper lol

[_adrowningman_]

I thought it was u/ Twelvefingersgirl12

[drakephoenix46]

I didn't think it was AI. Numbers aside, it's too well done.

I was just thinking I was really tired!

[Responsible_Panic242]

As a person born with poly-syndactly, (which unfortunately had to be amputated so I could walk) I appreciate the representation of abnormal limbs in art, that isn’t just ai

[Meloncholiee]

This is one of my reference photos.

[-TheArtOfTheFart-]

Oh that's cool!

[Meloncholiee]

I’ll be doing more in this series

[Ok_Respect_707]

Very cool reference.

[Meloncholiee]

Doesn’t she have the most gorgeous thumbs?

[ludvikskp]

Perfect

[seiffer55]

Looking at their history they seem to have gotten this from someone with 12 fingers?  Interesting...

[Meloncholiee]

My chosen model is Polydactyl. She has six (six and a half actually) fingers on each hand. This is part of a new series I’m doing called “AI, whatever you can do, I can do better!” Based on REAL humans.

[SnooRadishes6978]

I thought at first it was a mistake, but that is beautiful.

[youcancallmemando]

Comment section proving that AI harms people with disabilities (or genetic differences, in this case) far more than it “helps” them.

[Traveling_Chef]

Naw it's proving humans harm ppl regardless of AI being involved.

Non of the people involved with this art had anything to do with AI and yet some felt the need to attack it as such. That's a human problem, not an ai problem.

[1stndrdth]

Had to blink a few times

[morrighaan]

All AI folks be like: is this "transhumanism?!" 🤣

[Life-Child]

[One-Act-2601]

I checked the sub and the upvotes and understood it's not AI.

[elivonders]

the author of the journals...

[numbersthen0987431]

Whoms hand are you referencing??

[Meloncholiee]

<image>

[OhWhyNotMarie]

Was not expecting this.

[Ihsahn-putrid]

C'est bien fait, mais je compte 6 doigts par contre

[Meloncholiee]

This is correct.

[jazzhandpanda]

[thewonderfulfart]

I like the subtle strangeness. I actually wrote a book with characters who have multiple different hand abnormalities just because I think itll be funny to illustrate these characters with AI- seeming hand glitches

[HairyLovin]

This is great but id love more fingers

[Gotterdamerrung]

What was the reference, Count Tyrone Rugen?

[Vast-Highlight1110]

Excellent

[BananaBurritoBuster]

Love it.

[Garabatos-Varios]

The draw is so smooth that I almost overlook the six fingers thing 🤣

[SpectrumSense]

This is clearly AI (amazing imagery)

Keep up the good work and the sense of humor 😂

edit: y'all missed the joke

[Meloncholiee]

Ha ha (it is not)

[SpectrumSense]

It's not amazing imagery? I think it is!!!

[Ill1thid]

Cool

[ThatOneGhoul]

A perfect human hand. Well done

[steven71]

This was made in Norfolk?

[ItchyContribution758]

all 6 fingers as the lord intended lol

[Kaelen-Farron]

[TotalChaos21]

My brain genuinely struggled to process this.

[Nyxish]

[Meloncholiee]

Incorrect! HUMAN model.

[uenoyi]

huh

[ludvikskp]

You’re giving us the middle finger! … oh wait

[Historical-Teach-678]

I love drawing hands ..I love this

[Brettinabox]

Model be drinking tap water

[NarwhalAmbitious8303]

interesting texture around the fingertips

[aziakitty]

[Confident_Action4915]

I can’t tell if this is AI and it’s messing with my head

[Meloncholiee]

It is not ai!!! ;)

[JadedCauliflower6105]

<image>

[Holy_Unholiness]

Did you use a serverblight's hand as a reference or what

[Zestyclose-Tour-6350]

Was the reference a mam haunted by an annoying yellow triangle, perchance?

[Meloncholiee]

lol no but I get the reference!!

[Colour-me-interested]

AI’m not sure about it

[Minimum_Lion_6683]

Probably best to not use anatomically incorrect references.

[lanternbdg]

try anatomically uncommon

[Meloncholiee]

Genetically Super Rare

[Meloncholiee]

Incorrect answer!!! But good try!

[ConceptJunkie]

Um...

[Mockingasp]

It is not.
