In light of the recent revelation that WotC chose to include artwork that was at least partially “AI”-generated in Bigby Presents: Glory of the Giants, I will not buy that book or analyze any creature in it unless and until the art in question is replaced with entirely original art by a human artist

    Yeah, and it better come with a certification confirming that every single pixel was hand placed while they pedaled the bike that powered the computer, too!

    I have similar opinions about books. I will only read books made on a Gutenberg press because if a book takes less than a year to print, I am denying the painstaking hours of hard work these artisan printers have put into their craft and reading any other book printed through more efficient or modern means is an affront to my beliefs and constitutes an egregious attack on the printing press community such as my landlord and adjacent neighbors.

    This is horribly backwards thinking. This is the same kind of opposition to technological advancement that has been common with any leap forward.

    What you should he angry at isn’t that the work can be done more easily and more readily accessibly, but that the artists that may suffer from lower demand will suffer from it, rather than being able to make art for their own pleasure. Don’t fight what is not a problem.
