oh i couldn’t figure out what the other words mean! that explains a lot. so it will probably just be tailored clothes for the elders?

it’s from the animated roadmap overview. here’s the full screenshot without the icons with the dates on them

i am always happy whenever i see your art on my timeline 🩷 i didn’t read the title first an thought these resemble some sims. so now i imagine they are moira and dominic fyres as children 😇

thank you!! ❤️ i luckily wasn't attacked or anything, but i guess people have just been extra cautious.
oh but i really hope this doesn't spark more people to seek out other cc creators who might be 'guilty'

tysm!! ❤️ i am glad to see so many in the community are vocal about this and it makes me happy to see how much some people appreciate all the effort creators put into their custom content even though it might just be some silly pixel items 🥹

right!! it's not even my morals that have priority here but also to not feel discouraged by so many creative tasks being replaced and feed into this efficiency and profit driven mindset.
tysm, i'll see if i can figure it out but otherwise i'll get back to youuu 🥰

i get that but that's also why i want to not participate in slapping ai art on everything i make and of course for my own sake of not giving up on my creativity

it's unfortunate this is happening with a pack lilsimsie was involved in and she shouldn't get blamed for this but at the same time it shouldn't stop us from criticising ea's products.
we should keep in mind that ea mentioned several times they are planning to implement ai in their development!

rescaling or other methods they might have used like some filtering or vectoring could probably also result in similar odd shapes. i still find it hard to believe that someone would have made some of these as stylistic decisions and that's mostly my issue with these, but that's not the point
comment in response to
post
thank youu!! though i have still not heard them talk about ai here and unfortunately i also didn't see the posters in question in the concept art?
but what i found interesting is they mentioned first making the clutter item before they making the posters and them being short on time and budget

turns out these screenshots have actually been distorted while the uploading process since it's not exactly how they appear in game but i am still not sold on some of the proportions and odd shapes some of these illustrations have 🫣

the hostile office building could easily be mistaken for an ea build with the lack of decor and illogical floor plans. the repetitive work tasks would perfectly resemble active careers as we know them.
basically be an extended version of get to work lol

an hour later and you wonder how the single sim you started out with ended up being married with 3 kids and 2 pets 😩

i have also been sharing my concerns on this before and have been looking for those statements. pls let me know where i can find those portions of the stream

in the end, we are dealing with a company who is very open to implementing ai in it's development and cutting costs everywhere
comment in response to
post
yes of course, it can just as well be some kind of tracing/modifier/filter method resulting in those kind of shapes, it can be stylistic choices, whatever.
it still seems mentionable to me when it looks odd to many people, that's basically it

i actually went further and actually purchased the packs to have a closer look at the actual texture and it doesn't change the uncanny look some of these images have to me...
comment in response to
post
everytime a pack comes out simmers pick apart every pixel and polygon, so i don't understand why this discussion is now causing more controversy than usual, when so many people find something odd about the new images, i think there's still reason to discuss it here!
comment in response to
post
and i'm sorry lilsimsie is getting the backlash for this now.
there are many image alterations methods or effects that can result in effects that can be easily mistaken for ai, so if the artists used some of those and suspicions can be proven as wrong easily.

first, thank you for your indepth answer!! i don't want to throw around accusations, i have serious concerns because ea stated multiple times that there will be more integration of ai.
i don't own these sets myself yet, so i used screenshots other people shared in this discussion.

it's a vicious circle of cluttering up the mods folder until you can't handle it anymore and then getting rid of it all together just to download everything all over again 😅

i always find so many little mods that become essential for my game experience, fixing things i didn’t even realize were annoying me before 🙌
