Tencent's AI Art Tool Acts as a 'Genshin-Exclusive Filter'? Netizens Suspect Training Data is Loaded with Nintendo

Recently, a user on NGA exposed a curious discovery regarding one of Tencent's new AI art tools. It appears the AI has a 'preference' for Genshin Impact: when users upload character screenshots, the AI automatically transforms them into a visual style remarkably similar to 'The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild'.

To confirm this wasn't a fluke, the original poster conducted extensive tests. Regardless of the character, the AI consistently maps these images into that specific, stylized cartoon render. This high accuracy has led players to jokingly call the tool a 'Genshin redirector'.

The comment section exploded with speculation. Seeking the truth, fellow netizens ran comparative tests using other domestic open-world games like 'Tower of Fantasy' (referred to as 'Ta-Ta' in slang) and 'Wuthering Waves'. The results showed that these games didn't receive the same 'Zelda-esque' polish, creating a stark contrast that has kept the community buzzing.

Netizens are having a field day. Some teased that the AI was 'raised on Peter Pan' (a Chinese slang allusion to Nintendo's iconic style), hinting that the training dataset might be heavily saturated with Nintendo's intellectual property. While some users worried about whether this 'gossip' might be too controversial or 'bite back' (referring to potential legal or PR fallout), most are simply here for the drama, with many expressing that they can't help but laugh at the irony.
