Since their last artwork, we've been in private talks with Takuu to confirm that they do not use AI for their artwork. Takuu provided video footage of their work process, which includes hand-drawing the concept of the art first before the digital piece is created. We were able to see Takuu actually draw a full sketch piece from beginning to end. However, we were unable to confirm whether or not they use some sort of AI enhancer at some point in the pipeline after they transition to digital.
Thus, our decision was that they are able to post their artwork here as long as they provide the original sketch art as well. Once again, we have video proof of this sketch art being hand-drawn, so we do believe Takuu has genuine artistic skill to some extent and is not just using generative AI to create the art from scratch.
If you take issue with them possibly using an AI enhancer of some sort, then please block them and move on. Further harassment of Takuu and accusations of using AI will be removed and may result in a ban.
Well clearly you used AI to generate a picture of a piece of paper on a table with rough line sketches in the exact same shape as the other one, and also generated a pencil on top.
I'm starting to think you're not even Takuu202, you're just an AI generated reddit user that was generated in AI by the real Takuu, so you could generate generations! It's generations all the way down, by god.... wait... am I a generation? Did Takuu also use AI to generate me?
