I’m not sure of the timeline here because the acct is suspended now and it’s difficult to find screenshots or the art they uploaded but I think at least some of their art predates the good furry art generating AI models
Differing styles wouldn’t be unusual because they could have been commissioning different artists rather than drawing it themselves

Maybe feds had their own before the idea made its way out into the public. Generating fake pictures of people would be a useful thing for a fed faking identities online.
The feds creating novel solutions (as of the time of posting) to one of the big problems of computer science to create online furry drama seems unlikely to me
Beyond just the furry drama it still seems highly unlikely the feds had/have exclusive AI tech that can generate pictures of new, realistic human faces when there have been conventional image editing techniques to do the same for decades now at much, much less cost than AI
This kind of thing isn’t unheard of but it’s usually exclusive to things like… cryptography (like the NSA figuring out differential cryptanalysis before anyone else) where there is no substitute for having this advantage regardless of cost
Well feds created the internet and try to propose changes to FOSS so it’s not out the realm of possibility. But it’s unlikely they’re infiltrating the furry community, and if they are, they’re lying to their boss about the reason.
I’m sure they’re using AI now that it’s out there and they probably have their own models or variant tech cuz it’s not that hard to make your own at this point
(CW: imperialist war in Iraq, killing of George Floyd) To those who haven't seen it before: click here for instant and total psychic annihilation
It was obviously someone fucking with people to cause drama or some kind of psyop that became a bit but yeah
:what-the-hell:
Saddam Furssein
Meowmar Gaddaffi
Oxama bin Laden
Xi Jinpenguin
Batimir Putin
Mrowseph Stalin
Third picture feels like AI. It has that “I am an image generated based on a training set” feeling to it really strongly.
Given that none of the images this poster makes have the same style between them I’m going to guess they’re all AI.

Edit: I found a source for the first image
https://www.deviantart.com/playfurry/art/Battlefield-560638322
It’s from 2015 and unrelated

Feds have better things to do than manufacture furry drama online lol
If it was them they could have easily just paid someone to draw it
Why pay someone to draw it if you have a generative image tool to play around with?
