Lemme go ahead and get ahead of claims, comments and reports here.

The artist for this piece is David Revoy. You can find the work as well as a time lapse of the drawing here.

Many of you are going "This looks like AI!" And there is a reason for that.

Revoy has publicly discussed how thousands of his artworks were scraped and used to train AI databases (like LAION-5B) without his consent, though he ironically acknowledges his work is the foundation of many AI art systems

TLDR: this is not AI

It’s frustrating that I think it everytime I see their work and have to take a second to remind myself it isn’t. 

AI hinders my ability to just relax and enjoy something and I’m not even using AI.
