How do we know that's Helium and not He-Man's origin story?

Polonium enter in a bar, and the barkeeper can't say nothing anymore.

I am soooooooo disappointed in the hundreds of people upvoting AI slop. Stop it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

What makes it AI? I don't see the usual style mixing that AI is guilty of.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 days ago (1 children)

There have been quite a few comics in this style recently. For this specific comic, the background is always changing.

Also, the letter E for "serve" in the second panel is almost completely merged with the line.

Not only is it AI, but also floating away in disgust is actually a reaction.

He don't react to childish voices.

I'm a simple man. I see AI, I downvote.

Congratulations

Real question, how can you tell it's AI?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 days ago

Amongst all the other tells pointed out. The most obvious one right now is whats dubbed “AI-sans font”

There is atm only a single generator that can make this quality though. All ai generators have their unique quirks you learn to identity.

Some things got me suspicious. Some patterns, the art style, the colors are "a strange choosing".. everything is so "overly perfect" except for the letters that feel kind of off... like someone had to unfuck the text. Besides, this is some polished artwork for a random comic with no firm.

But the real give away for me are the bottles

[–] [email protected] 24 points 2 days ago

Inconsistencies. The bottles are different in every panel. The door is missing after the first panel despite not being any closer to the bar. The scale is way off from the other two in the last panel. The bar fades out of existence in the last panel, and the wall panel is gone. The text being cut off on the edge of the second panel.

Same yellow-ish pallette

Bottles in the background change every panel

you're lucky my instance host won't let me downvote this AI slop

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (4 children)

How did you notice? I have to admit, that I don´t see any indicator for it, which worries me...

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago

This is the n-th so-called "AI" created comic that's posted in this style. Alsog as others have noted: inconsistent style/background between the panels.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 days ago

the font, I have seen a lot of these AI generated memes on socials and the font is almost always the same (it has inconsistencies but the style is the same)

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 days ago

Inconsistency of the backgrounds is another big hint. A human would have just copy/pasted it.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

The text doesn't align, and there was a meme about it that was uploaded very close to this
