Im so confused about people saying they prefer the ai one. Just to double triple check that were all on the same page here, the ai one is the bottom one, right??

I think the bottom one is extremely boring and the top one looks sick af.

The AI one is generic and easier to read. Some people like that πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

What, do you not hate everything and everyone all the time like the cool kids?

I thought AI was the top one. I actually prefer the AI one in this case. in the first one the guy's face and nose is square and the the drawing is shitty. the second is clear and not distracting

God forbid an artist ever have style and good control of light. The AI one is plain boring, and has tons of shading errors. The original artists has a cool aesthetic, with lots of detail, vibrant colors and the facial expression looking at the viewer in smugness communicates a lot more than the AI one. So does the orange baby facial expression. It is all more lively and actually translates human emotion that says something about the situation. The AI one is basic and dull in comparison. So, anyways, media literacy…

So you’re saying the first is stylized and the second is bland. We agree.

I'm with you. The top one is a unique style, while the bottom one is about as generic as it gets, not to mention it has that damn yellowed background AI always uses for comics.

AI can reproduce any style convincingly.

It can with proper prompts, but all we ever see is the generic style shown here.
