Looks AI to me, especially with how Marisa's right wrist seems to meld into her hat's frills... and well, the frills on the left side of her head go straight into her hair. All the frills look off-putting, really. Plus, this is the first post on this very new pixiv account.
There's also those eerily straight bikini straps, so straight that you can see the aliasing on them, but I wouldn't know if they were added by an AI or added in afterwards.

This is what I'm talking about when it comes to the witch hunt regarding basically indistinguishable art coming under the gun because of a hunch or similar. Beyond being a fairly neutral anime art style, I don't see anything visibly that would suggest to me that this is AI. It's not tagged as such, there's nothing by the artist suggesting they may be experimenting with it. Even the questionable tool linked here only thinks it's a 22% liklihood.
As far as I can tell this is just a decent quality illustration without any particularly unique artist style. I'd really hate for us to pick this sort of thing apart, and start flagging them short of any kind of good evidence to the contrary and risk excluding things as false positives. Short of any evidence, it's really not fair to the uploader or artist either. I'd definitely approve this one if it was in the mod queue with a clear conscience.
I find it somewhat amusing that common artist techniques to avoid having to draw something are being taken as suspicions of duplicitous intent to distribute AI artwork now. The amount of artists who talk about hiding hands so they can avoid drawing them is more than the combined total of artists ever linked on this website, let alone the habits of "draw the body first, then draw clothes over it" for Variant Set purposes or hentai.
If that image had been linked before the bots got popular, nobody would have blinked an eye. But now we have wannabe detectives trying to find their big scoop on "Is this artist actually just using AI?" and bringing up false positives. This suspicion of any account made post-AI is ridiculous, and is hurting the art industry more than the AI-artwork itself ever will.
Remember evazion's words at the start of this thread. If you don't have something concrete, either search until you do, or leave it alone and risk that it sneaks through. Dan isn't exactly on good terms with artists as it is, do we really want to be making it worse by adding a much more significant offense of accusing the innocent of fraud?

Admittedly I should have worded my post a bit better instead of outright saying it was AI. I went back through this thread and saw the valid concerns with starting a witchhunt/crusade here, so maybe I should have just left that post alone but I still ended up coming here for a second opinion because of my own suspicions (I personally haven't used that questionable ai-checking tool). Of course, my own suspicions doesn't amount to anything since I have nothing concrete to show, I just saw a new pixiv account with that post being its first post and what I perceived to be oddities. It could very well be just an artist posting on Pixiv for the first time. Sorry about that.
It's not super acccurate but might detect some ai stuff. I've uploaded some of good ai gen images made by same person and one showed 90% probablity and another 9.97%( tho it fooled me as well, maybe it was AI assisted img instead of fully ai). Also real artists can have high % as well. Up to 35% was a common percentage I got for real artists, however, anmis old work got whooping 77%. It's a useful, still developing tool but it's better to check artists account before blindly trusting the website.
Checked it on the AI arts I make with SD anything v3 model and some were as low as 15%... I think there's no good way to gauge AI art anymore now that it's progressed too much.
edit: just made something for the fun of it in about 20 seconds and got an 11.60% score, seems VERY unreliable. for the record, this is what got a 11.60% score: https://i.imgur.com/V8KD9F7.png and you can see many faults with it.
In any given batch of 18 images, at least 6 of them seem to score under 20% so I wouldn't rely on that tool.
example of another that scored low: https://i.imgur.com/pvnADQ0.png , basically as long as you don't make the characters look too generic and add some kind of additional 'style' to the image it won't detect it as AI at all.
AI-assisted? Artist's previous works were tagged with AI related tags.
Those five fingers are looking hella s u s, but the image looks like an AI image that was further touched up upon by the "artist" instead of leaving it as is.

Yep, AI-assisted. Besides the five fingers, of which none is a thumb, setting the gamma to 0.1 also shows smooth brush strokes in several areas that don’t match the textured surroundings.
The weird thing is that this artist is legit genuinely capable of drawing, my guess is that they accidentally marked their upload as AI-generated on the upload page when it's clearly not, and there's no telltale signs of an AI image anyway.
Doesn't seem like AI to me. The artist has been drawing in a similar style for a while, and the full res pictures are detailed enough to see individual brush strokes. Possibly just an error based on their content being very generic.
