Took a bit of a liberty with translating the girl's name. Originally, her name is Doji from the word dojikko (ใƒ‰ใ‚ธใฃๅจ˜) "clumsy person" but it didn't feel right to me translating her name as Doji or Clumsy (who names their kid Clumsy?). So I translated her name as something that rolls off the tongue easily while still sounding like both a name/still retains the original meaning: Ditzi.

    Took a bit of a liberty with the translation, rendering Zanmu's line as a direct play on the famous "Rapunzel! Rapunzel! Let down your hair, That I may climb thy golden stair!" More literally, she's bluntly telling Reimu something to the effect of "Well then, use this to come up to my side" with speech patterns that make her sound elderly.

    If people feel that I've been unacceptably free with the translation I decided on, maybe try this instead:
    "Be a darling and clamber up here, won't you? Use this!"

    You don't need to respond like that to people just giving additional information. You could've done with just saying "there's also the eyebrows and bangs" and left it at that.

    They weren't "giving additional information" they were explaining that they recognized it as AI only after looking at the "artist's" account. All I did was point out how unnecessary it is to go through the effort of looking for evidence when the image is covered in easily identifiable AI artifacts.

    I didn't even say anything rude? What's your problem?

    It is necessary because a lot of people here point out "flaws" in images that turns out aren't actually AI. I provided conclusive proof instead of "hmm this part looks AI to me".

    Your comment was a textbook "duh can't you all see this" tone.

    See above + you doing this in a lot of comment sections.

    That's not how I meant it, but sorry I offended you enough with a comment not directed at you to pick a fight with me over nothing. Please forgive me, manners police, for being anything less than obnoxiously polite in every interaction I have with other people online.

    I really don't care if you have a problem with the way I talk. It's not breaking any rules, and I'm not going to stop doing nothing wrong because it bothers you.

    Many non-AI posts are being flagged simply because someone pointed out a few negative aspects. It's important to check the artist's account to verify their work. If it turns out the artist is not using AI and some of their posts are deleted and tagged as AI-generated, future uploaders might avoid archiving their works here.

    You really don't need all that evidence to identify this as AI. The multiple sets of eyebrows and the mess all over her bangs and eyes is already telling enough.

    Look if I didn't hesitate uploading this, I would have. What made me hesitate was simply how much it copies the anime's/kerorira's art direction. Copying is certainly something an AI can understand but even this isn't a consistent reason to hesitate, people make style parodys all the time.

    Many smaller flaws an AI can make were simply major artistic issues that were vetted in the queue years ago. Humans can make any number of mistakes an AI can, barring a few like the lineart not following the lighting, and even then, photobashing is a thing artists sometimes do. At this point, understanding the pattern of mistakes or liberties individual artists do across several artworks is probably a better way of knowing. If you're only looking at a single image that has been picked from a hundred generated at the same time, each with their own random, inhuman flaws, that can never be checked because they are immediately deleted, you will be debating all day about whether artists or a specific artist would "sometimes make random mistakes".
