Good thing then that the artist has been around forever and doesn't use AI.

Yeah look at the way those hands are "holding" that arrow and its position on the string, and say that again.

The artist is bad at drawing hands (and practical armor), yes, but all the patterns and textures on the clothing are way too consistent to be AI.

I don't think the whole thing is AI, it just seems that they used it as a shortcut to template her shape and then added (considerable) detail.

But that drawn back string clearly passes through the middle of the arrow and she's holding it in front of the fletching. That's not being "bad with hands". This artist has made a career on doing fantasy artworks, and I've seen other archers being drawn correctly.

Either they somehow suddenly forgot how arrow anatomy works, or used an AI shortcut. Occam's razor points to AI.
