CHATGPT CAN IMITATE A CARTOONIST. NOW IT'S SIGNING THEIR NAME, TOO

Summary from the TLDR Design newsletter

ChatGPT has generated cartoons containing signatures associated with more than 15 New Yorker contributors, potentially making AI-generated work appear to have been created by real artists. Cartoonists including Brendan Loper and Emily Flake have encountered images bearing recognizable versions of their names despite having no involvement in creating them. OpenAI has introduced warnings for some New Yorker-style requests, but signed outputs have reportedly continued to appear, raising concerns that style imitation can cross into false attribution.
