Can someone help me figure out if this art is AI generated? I found a bunch of really cool pieces but they seem AI It says it's a Yayoi Kusama print, but when I dig through museums for her work, there's nothing like these there. www.peardropprints.com/products/yay...

Oh yeah this specific seller is all fake generative AI work. Wrote up a piece about it: maggieappleton.com/generative-f...

Oh wow, Maggie. You could swap out William Morris for Kusama and this was my story beat for beat. Honestly. Thank you for writing this up, it makes me feel way less naive and gullible if they were able to trick you as well. I agree with your conclusion; this is all going to hell so quickly.
