It is getting harder to spot AI art, and the question of that Fantastic Four poster hangs in the air. Marvel may deny the use of AI, but many tell-tale signs are there – including a figure that appears to only have three fingers.

Some disagree that's it's AI (and AI detection websites say it's likely human-made), but the headlines, and discussion persists – likely due to the overall appearance of the image. When we reported on it, we felt that the whole discussion was symbolic of the kinds of negative effect AI has had on the creative industries, and that 'AI fail' has now become the standard critique (where once we would have said 'Photoshop fail').
