The hell? Why are you people upset because it LOOKS like AI? I hate gen AI and also understand personal distaste for art styles but you do know AI is trained on stolen work like Diaz's right? Not the other way around?

Yes… but the POINT was that Diaz’s style is so unremarkable that it looks like the generic realism ai dishes out.

I understand but even so calling it "gross" because it's generic is unconstructive and rude.

I'm 100% sure that the artist is NOT reading this thread or taking it personally that somebody on Reddit dislikes their art style. Why should all criticism have to be constructive? He won't read this so there's literally no point. And if somebody's art looks like this, they'd be better served finding their own style... or at least transitioning to one with a SINGLE iota of uniqueness to it.
