I promise you, I'm not.

I've been accused of "being AI" before, but I hate AI and never use it if I can avoid it.

I write in a dorky, earnest style with big words. A lot of early Internet users write that way. AI was probably trained on such writings. Therefore, people who write like old internet nerds tend to sound like the AI that scoured their forum postings for inspiration. That is my theory, at least.

Also, I went to art school, so I can talk about shit in a pretentious way.

It makes me sad that people are accused of using AI when in reality they are just mega dorks like me.

And if you don't believe me about beinf human, check out my recent posts I guess.

Ngl the original comment read as pretty sarcastic. Also, OP transparently isn't the creator, so it's a bit weird to address them directly when referring to the comic.

I figured it may be their own comic, and they were linking to their own page. Oh well
