"Personal?" Personal what?

We will never know, because this comic was produced by AI.

And it made a glaring mistake? Who will verify these errors to ensure they don't occur? 🤔

Maybe we can make an AI-driven editing software!

You're one of several people saying this is from AI. I'm more familiar with the AI giveaways in text or fake photos, but not so much with comics. What makes this comic look so obviously AI generated to you?

This artistic style is specifically generated by ChatGPT 4o when you ask it to create a comic. You get a feel for it pretty quick once you have seen it a couple times, the same way you think “hey I’ve seen this artist’s work before”.

The text also looks generated - it’s too consistent to be handwritten, but too sloppy to be a font.

I definitely get generic kids book illustration vibes from it. Most of the comics I see tend to go for a more distinctive art style. I hadn't even considered the writing, though. Thanks for sharing.

The link you posted supports that it's AI

[–] AVincentInSpace@pawb.social 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

The original comic wasn't produced by AI, though.

Okay, but the word "personal" still presumably had some meaning in the original Portugese. An AI did not come up with that word. Google Translate isn't sure what it could translate to in English apart from "personal", but presumably, there's some meaning there that the artist intended.

I'm presuming "personal assistant" and it got cut off due to being itself AI-generated slop.

Maybe it’s supposed to be “personnel”? HR hiring processes is dominated by bots now.
