I was immediately excited to hear about this, but I’m disappointed to see that the use of AI generated images is accepted ‘if disclosed’ (disclosed how? where? how clearly?). As an artist who’d otherwise be excited to incorporate hand drawn illustrations in my entry, I dunno what to say other than this sucks and is exhausting.
It’s not even about the fact that that I’ll have less of an edge as an artist (I just wanna join this to practice adventure design), but when a pretty high profile designer with a platform shows this kind of lax acceptance of generative AI, it’s absolutely going to shift the Overton window in the exacct opposite direction any kind of indie artist wants.
What’s the logic behind this? How do the benefits possibly outweigh the negatives?
