Because the AI one are soul-less, and the badly drawn ones are not, simple as that.
Still, while "it's AI generated crap" and variations thereof are all perfectly valid reasons by themselves, they are way, WAY too shallow for the average guy who looks at both versions and prefers the AI one because it looks "better". I would probably sound crazy and/or pretentious trying to explain to him why I prefer the badly drawn one to the perfect AI generated one, I do not know exactly why myself.
You already sound pretentious - that ship sailed a long time ago. This is one of these moments in life that doesn’t matter one bit.
