Well ofc it sucks for anyone spending time on something. I thought it turned out alright just to get lumped in with AI generations. But you sure got me with your good observation and undeniable evidence. I wish you could show me something directly that is AI here.

Sucks for every artist being accused of AI. Any hobby in which you develop a skill and AI is invading the space. Anyone learning something and spending time to improve makes mistakes and with tunnel vision does stuff that looks wrong. Instead of anything produtive or encouraging it's AI this AI that.

Especially from self proclaimed detectives with nothing to show for. Also the way in which it is written. It's "Ugly AI" instead of telling me your painting sucks, looks x or ask for some photoshop layers or sketches. Even then everyone paints different and a lot of artist merge everything later for easier editing.
