yeah, but it’s really easy to justify anything being AI, since there’s always something slightly off or some mistake somewhere even with human art
For emoji kitchen specifically, I know Jennifer Daniel (formerly Google’s blobmoji, now more famous as Unicode’s emoji subcommittee chair) does a lot of them (if not all?), since she tweets about it a lot. (For what it’s worth, she also seems kinda anti-AI.)
Having gone in to modify some of the emoji kitchen combinations myself, you can tell that someone was editing the original files (SVGs/Illustrator/whatever vector graphics were originally used to make them), either with a template or just some kind of copy/paste job, and there are parts that were obviously just mirrored (something genAI is usually pretty bad at). I’m specifically thinking of all the little facets on the diamond + heart combos.
I’m like 95% sure you’ll be able to find tweets where she talks about actually drawing the emojis if you scroll back far enough, but Twitter is so completely unusable now I’m not going to be the one to look for them
