Even GTA VI is being scrutinized for "AI sloppiness" - a graphic designer defends Rockstar Games
While waiting for new promotional materials for GTA VI, some are examining old footage and sometimes noticing strange details.
Recently, a user under the nickname Dangerous_Title_7255 was rewatching the second Grand Theft Auto VI trailer and noticed the cover of the promo video. In the background, it can be seen that several palm trees are missing their trunks.
Some users began to suggest that this might be the work of AI. Pir-o joined the discussion and introduced himself as a graphic designer. He explained that this is a common artist's mistake:
It's just the background, and you're concentrating on what's in the center of the frame. When you draw, you do the same thing — you focus on what's important.
He also suggested that the artist might not have included the necessary layer with the palm trunk or accidentally covered it:
This could be a compression and graphics artifact issue, especially with the palm tree on the left. That is, everything is visible at maximum resolution, but after compression and reduction for fast internet loading, thin lines here and there can disappear. Such drawings can have anywhere from 200 to 1000 layers. It's quite possible that one layer was simply forgotten or was supposed to be above another but ended up below it. The palm trees on the right were not part of the original image at all — they only appear in the widescreen version that briefly shows up on their website. In general, this is nothing compared to GTA IV, when the girl on the poster had six fingers, and that was long before AI. These things happen: artists often get paid little and work under insanely tight deadlines.
The discussion of Grand Theft Auto VI art also attracted attention in the community, whose members are engaged in checking images for AI. Many also concluded that it was a regular drawing.
Low_Restaurant_1509 noted:
The frame [with palm trees in the background] is a tiny part of a much larger image, and the missing trunks are barely even noticeable when viewing the entire picture; most likely, it's just a common artist's mistake. The fact that you can zoom in and crop such a small fragment, and it still remains so detailed and consistent [with the rest of the art], is in itself a pretty good sign that it's not AI.
