For anyone having a difficult time understanding why the images that Wacom posted are AI generated, I broke it down here.

@wacom I have a lot of respect for you for continuing to call out these people. And they just deleted the post?? The worst part is, soon we won’t be able to tell if it’s ai…

@wacom I agree that it’s going to get much harder to detect. For me, the biggest red flags are things that a human would never make the decision to include. Missing limbs, objects or body parts that inhumanly morph into other objects, and artifacts are usually good indicators.

@wacom and they just deleted it. Sincerely, it's a damn shame. I like wacoms. They are still my favorite tablets, and I own a bunch of different ones, but damn, this was completely irresponsible.

@wacom Wacom is a Japanese company, and the Wacom JP account made a post on New Year with a picture of a dragon by a real human artist. I think this reflects more on the ineptitude of the English-speaking community managers than the company as a whole.

@wacom This is unrelated but you sound exactly like Jenny Nicholson… it’s very uncanny.

@wacom What an incredible compliment I love her

@wacom This is insanely easy to spot! How easy would it be to have real artists submit their work and showcase the actual product in action 😒

@wacom Also taking away the moral issue for a second.. You'd think, it be a good marketing move to make the ad for the art product... With the art product it's self. You know like Apple's whole 'shot on iPhone' campaign.

@wacom All @wacom had to do was take a strong anti-AI stance and they would have looked like heroes to their main customer base - artists who DON'T use AI. They threw away decades of brand reputation for the cheapest-looking dragon cliparts.

@wacom 100% …..using AI art to promote a product for artists is just wrong and contrary to their business model
