AI generated images are getting more impressive.

Pretty sure Timo draws his own cartoons, what makes you believe it's AI?

If you zoom into the shading and into the professor’s face, you’ll see that the lineart is all wonky.

edit: I checked out his blog, he also has ai generated cartoons there, and his non-ai generated cartoons are more clean and vector-y

Looks pretty human to me ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Edit: Damn, well spotted! That is very impressive, though.
