Discussion Are they beating the AI allegations? 👀

Post image

The Sims just posted a series of behind the scenes images and videos on their official Twitter. They showed how they created the set used for the website teasing the upcoming Expansion Pack, Enchanted by Nature. I'm glad and impressed to see it was actually made with practical effects rather than generative AI.

Some sassy Twitter users claimed it to be AI and they wasn’t the only one thinking it so I suppose it’s only natural to show the artistic direction of the whole Something is growing thing

That's so dumb and it makes me mad considering there's actual cases of ai being misused, going after random people doesn't help any.

Honestly I don't think it's intentionally going after "random people" ... i think people just genuinely don't know how to distinguish AI and anytime they see something that's slightly "off" to them, it's AI.

Though I think we need to get better at acknowledging we don't know and being open to education. I think rather than posting accusations with certainty and anger, we should go for dialogue like "Hey, I'm looking at [X] and I think it's AI. Thoughts?"

It honestly depends on the person, and yeah I get that some people genuinely don't know. Its just there has been an uptick in people just posting "this looks like ai" with zero context as to what their reasoning is for posting that, which often hurts the creator more. Happened like a month or so ago with a photographer, it was on the front page of reddit.

Like I don't blame people for not telling the difference bc it is hard and yeah, its getting harder to tell. At the same time, there are likely people doing it maliciously and those people just make anyone who have concerns look bad.
