maybe i do then because i just keep staring and thinking “how in the world did anyone sign off on this mess”. if it’s not ai, that makes it even worse.

It’s always amusing when the most hysterical person in the room tells you you’re overacting.
gilokee@lemmy.world 2 months ago
really? How can you tell? :(

the buttons on the switch and ps2, the asymmetry of the ps1 and switch, the logo on the ps4, and the lack of pixellation and strange proportions of the 360 and ps3. also the fact that only some of them have controllers depicted.

Sorry again, I know I responded below and not trying to just fight for now reason, but pointing out these different things you’re identifying that actually strongly suggest these aren’t AI, or aren’t indicators of AI or not either way.
For example, Switch asymmetry. This is how Switch directional and gamepad buttons look. It should be asymmetrical, and AI probably wouldn’t get that right like it is in the graphic. You can even see the color-distorted remainder of the “-” and “+” symbols above them, blurred to hell from terrible resizing.
Things like proportions and whether controllers are depicted are just choices either a human or an AI could make.

The fact that some of the icons are not pixelated is a huge ai red flag, no designer would make that weird mistake. Also, why have ALL the text pixelated as well? if you really want to go with that look there’s fonts in that style that don’t reduce readability.
lime@feddit.nu 2 months ago
for the asymmetry on the switch i was mostly referring to the silhouette. should havj clarified that.

And by far the most obvious: many of the Pixels are not square, or misaligned with the grid pattern

Which is AI-generated? It looks to me like real pixel art (except the 360) very lazily resized in a non-nearest-neighbor fractional scale and anti-aliased to mush.
lime@feddit.nu 2 months ago
the proportions are off and the lines are crooked. there’s also the typical latent noise on places like the controller buttons.
ReallyActuallyFrankenstein@lemmynsfw.com 2 months ago
Sorry, none of this is a strong indicator of AI. The “latent noise” you refer to is perfectly consistent with compression and resizing artifacting and noise. Other features are strongly suggestive it was originally pixel art. For example:
-All of the controllers have consistent layouts, including the correct number and orientation of buttons, player indicators, etc (e.g., the Wii controllers). -Consistent diagonal step effects, even if blurred from poor resizing (see the PS4).
-Consistent text for all system indicators that is legible without AI artifacting, even if blurred from poor resizing. -The fact that the 360 and PS3 (didn’t notice initially) are not even pixel art suggests they just grabbed random icons from the web, not ran them through AI generators.

Visual Capitalist says they make all their own graphics (so not just grabbed from the Web) from a “veriaty of tools from Adobe Creative Cloud”.
Adobe has been making a huge push for so-called “AI tools” in their Creative Cloud service.

And a couple of them (PS3, 360) aren’t even pixelated.
UndergroundGoblin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 months ago
And the ps2 controller is unsymmetrical.

Ps3 in chatgpt font,

Its very obvious for the ps1.
ReallyActuallyFrankenstein@lemmynsfw.com 2 months ago
Sorry…Again, what should I be taking from this? What is “ChatGPT font”? ChatGPT and its image tool are distillation models that do not have fonts. They produce images based on per-pixel relational distillation, they are guessing what pixels should be next to each other and do not use fonts. Current models do produce text that can be indistinguishable from fonts, but there is no single “ChatGPT font.” If there is a generic font appearing here, that doesn’t tell us anything new.
For the PS1, I don’t understand what you are referring to. The blurriness and uneven lines happen from compression artifacting and/or resizing to a non-divisible fractional resolution.
If you’re taking some other features as evidence of AI, let me know.

I don’t understand you defending ai art, but here, the extremely obvious odd coloring texturing the surface of the ps1 would be enough for anyone to notice, but the generation error in the top is proof. This smudge line is where the ai failed on its final pass, likely to do with clipskip or whatever crap open ai uses as this is clearly open ai’s image model.
Why are you defending ai art so hard, what do you get from defending a massive cooperation?
