@eWalthert @Tarnport Not exactly autotrace but admittedly similar. I started with brightness steps (the initial output is basically 4 grayscale vectors representing 4 ranges of brightness on the source image, excluding the lightest range). After, I colored the steps and I did some changes to the brightness steps, such as removing the lighter tones near right and adding in the lightest (yellowish) tone. I also did the background but that was just 4 rectangles and Futura letters.

@judahhansen @Tarnport This still sounds rather mechanical. To make a point agains AI art, I sat down and gave this an hour of my creative time. Thanks for holding my beer! 🍺
