@bobbymillsarts's post on Artfol

Wacom using A.I art is just plain sad.

That decision probably wasn't made by an artist/designer at Wacom. Most likely a higher up who was only focused on "cutting costs".

Which is ironic because artists are Wacom's bottom line. ๐ŸŽจ

Had to google this and they didnt even try to hide the fact theyre ai those dragons are so broken and ugly omg. Why on earth would they send a message of use ai instead of buying our drawing products to create art wtf. Havent had much trust on wacom in years but damn this is a new low.

XP pen was also caught using AI art along with asking artists to promote their products for free: https://twitter.com/meganroseruiz/status/1744035426942509110?t=p2D_kKgRbdA8GYLJfoZ36w&s=19

The worst part is they could have just.... Got a stock photo. It's not like there's a lack of dragon illustrations on stock websites a month before CNY ๐Ÿ˜’.
Instead they get something AI and don't even look to see if it all... Connects. Like, that tail didnt even connect to the butt....
I stopped recommending wacom products a few years back after I disliked the pro pen 2. The pen they still sell over 5 years later on their models. They aren't innovating, they're overpriced, their drivers have been dodgy for over 20 years and now they did this....
