And if you have any questions, feel free to ask. I was too lazy (and anxious) to provide any visual examples as I don't wanna be the guy to expose someone and cause drama.
Just take a look at some of the recent exposed individuals and note the similarities.

I hope this helps you all out with identifying these invaders. The use of AI Art has no place in this community. We survived without it then, we can survive without it now. Pick up a book, use real reference.

8. Patreon or other method of taking commission.
Another reason these artists will use AI is to make money. Literally all of the ones I've seen have had a patreon, kofi, take commissions, or all of the above.

7. Visual Inconsistencies with Characters.
Specifically look out for:
-Changes in key design choices (Or Missing Completely).
-Different number of fingers than the reference (If less than 5).

6. Primarily draws 1 to 2 of their characters constantly. (Most likely suggestive artwork).
Some of these artists may float the boat with different character arts until they find one their audience vibes with best, then stick with that character and that character only.

5. Constant Fan-art (Most likely suggestive artwork).
AI Artists' primary goal when it comes to posting is to do numbers. They want popularity. An easy way to do that is to make fanart. Not only of pre-existing characters, but OCs of other popular artists.

HEAD AND TAIL: Look to see if the ONLY corrections they make are on the head and tail during the sketching phase. It is very easy to slap any OC on any given body, so much of the edits AI Artists make are to the things that make the character unique.

4. Timelapses.
AI Artists rarely if ever post timelapses. But when they do, be on the lookout for these tells:
-Lack of construction on the sketch layer.
-Lack of CORRECTION on the sketch layer.

3. Frequent posts of high-quality.
The Artist will post frequent art if not daily, of a very high quality. (In some cases, multiple times a day.)

2. Change in Art Style in a short span.
At a point, you should be able to pinpoint a change in Art Style. This change can represent itself in a sudden, somewhat perfect understanding of Art Fundamentals not present in their previous work.

(Consider checking other websites in search of old art if any, especially since Twitter on desktop likes to cut you off if you go too far back in the media tab.)

1. Lack of art before a recent period of time.
These “Artists” will often remove their old art to hide the drastic change in styles. It will often be more obvious if the account has been around for longer than they’ve been posting art.

Before I begin I’d like to let everyone know that this post is NOT a go-ahead to begin witchhunting artists. An artist can possess one of these qualities without using AI, as it takes multiple of these to warrant suspicion. With that being said, here's what I've noticed:
