I’m with you. It seems at least in part it was AI. The shoulder is shadowed but the sunglasses are giving off a (double?) glint?
I’m really not seeing any obvious AI tells. It looks to me like it was drawn and inked traditionally, and then someone dropped in the little flares to up the cheese factor (and maybe give a little reference to JJ). I may be wrong, it’s getting hard to tell these days, but to me it just looks like someone trying to emulate a very typical comic book style.
OK, I’ve seen the images in the other thread now, and I’m seeing much more convincing evidence of AI generation there.
Like, everything about these arms looks wrong: https://imgur.com/DiRNxEY
And these shadows are just nonsense: https://imgur.com/TMZY25V
Honestly, I’m personally not too bothered if a background prop you’re not supposed to get a good look at is made with AI, but I’m also not going to argue with anyone who takes a real hard line on the subject.
