This is somehow less terrifying than AI generated human faces.

That’s by design. The uncanny valley is meant to guard us against things that are close to human, but not quite. Specifically corpses/dead things or extremely sickly people.
This is intentionally drawn as a monster, and doesn’t resemble a human as much as an AI generated image is trying to.
Our brain is, subconsciously, able to discern the difference.
One is only a threat in our head (the monster) and the other is a potential disease carrier (AI Generated)

It’s kind of disappointing that I haven’t seen more deliberate uses of bad AI imagery. I think it’s just too powerfully uncanny for people to voluntarily stomach.
