ὦ Ἄρτεμι σκυλακῖτι...

PhD student researching early modern paratextuality. Professional translator and proofreader. Prone to daydream about Ancient Greece, the Renaissance, and the Romantics. I name my plants after poets and fictional characters, and someday I will publish my novel (I have to finish it for that, right?). ‘I am the woman that Artemis loves, / My garden is her seat: / I give her gifts—the bay-tree and / the rosemary do blush so sweet.’

[ID: John Brophy's "Bat Girl". It is an oil painting of a young girl holding a bat to her chest and petting it like a cat.

The bat's wings are outstretched as if hugging her back, and she is looking down on it fondly.

In the background is a dark forest, at sunset, with two more bats flying. End ID]

I bet it feels so good to return from a quest so worn out that you fall off your horse when you arrive at the gates

At risk of sounding like a hater and an asshole this looks like AI and if its somehow not, the editor who reworked images and sharpened them up made it look like AI

Edit: yeah its AI

[theromanbarbarian]

This is the actual image (from a 6 year old reddit post so def not AI). Either someone asked AI to recreate it or AI, being the plagiarism machine it is, was asked for a pic of dogs finding humans in the snow and just ripped off the first image it could find. Another reminder that AI doesn't actually create anything. Also real cute dogs.

Actually a fantastic example for when you need to illustrate to someone that AI art is theft, blatantly, and not in some abstract way
