I think this group really needs a clear stand on AI generated work.
To be clear: I am not against AI generated work, as such. I think it is fine to use AI in your workflow as inspiration or as an assistant while adding your own touch. And with that I think I have already a more liberal view than most on AI generated work!
However, I think it is not okay to put out some AI generated work while claiming a) it is your work and b) it was not AI generated. This is just dishonesty and in general we (in this subreddit) don’t like to be lied to or taken advantage of.
Unfortunately, there is no rule (yet) that says one should clearly state something is AI generated. Rule no 1 is: be nice, but how civil is it when a poster tries to fool the audience?
But pointing out the AI tell-tales puts one immediately in the mod’s crosshairs and many comments were already removed. But is this being nice? I would say: fair is nice!
Please add a rule that makes it mandatory for the poster to be clear if the image was AI generated or not.
