People noticed artifacts in the art pretty quickly:

WotC is standing by its claim but it seems doubtful that these mistakes would have been made by a human unless the artist comes out and shows their process

Oh Lord, that gauge. Wizards, tell which human so I can slap them. Or stop I trying to die on a concave hill.

The tubes did it for me. I own many vintage guitar amps. I can name most tubes on sight, even non-audio ones. These are comical.

Edit: not the pipes, but the thermionic valves glowing behind the cards.

What doesn't add up is the top line of the "drawer" on the wooden box thing. If you look, the line on the top side of the drawer is different heights on the left and right side of the land cards; this is a tell-tale sign of AI image generation.

Yeah, nobody who's obsessive enough to make this level of detail is gonna stand for anything misaligned!

Do you just assume any art that isn’t a perfect attempt at realism is AI?

That would be the CEO. WoTC fired 1900 people last year. 1100 people just before christmas.
