We have gone AI art-free here, and I have removed them all from the blog. AI art was a novelty, but the longer the technology has gone on, the more ethical questions and problems arose. Not to mention putting traditional artists out of work and dissuading anyone in the future from having to learn highly-rewarding art skills. Morally and ethically, it is not something I feel good about.
AI art was very inspiring and mind-opening, but after a while, it got repetitive, and you could start to see how it copies and spits out the same thing at you time after time. It can't draw hands. It can't do a side-shot of a figure. It is just dumb, a remix machine that isn't art. It is not owned or copyrightable. There is great potential in the future of AI, just - not this way.
Today's artists need jobs.
Future artists must know investing years in their skills will not lead to a dead end in life.
Wizards of the Coast is doubling down on AI in D&D. Considering their statements on the topic, I would not be surprised to see them reverse their earlier anti-AI stance for art and book content.
Chaosium, Kobold Press, and Legendary Games have announced that their games and books will not include AI content. If this matters to you, consider supporting your beliefs with your gaming budget.
