Spider-Man: Brand New Disappointment.

There seems to be some egregious (but unconfirmed) AI slop in art book Spider-Man: Brand New Day - The Art of the Movie, judging by images shared by The Artbook Collector. That any editor allowed this to be included is embarrassing enough, but why even use AI concept art on a project that was rolling in money?

<em>Sure, there’s seemingly no AI disclosure on the image, but I also have eyeballs and this gets worse the longer you look at it.</em>
<em>I’m not sure even Spider-Man can help if you’re trapped in a taxi that’s melting into the road.</em>
<em>These fire escapes are a death trap.</em>
