I use Stable Diffusion daily. I’m vehemently against people spouting nonsensical fear mongering against AI. But I completely agree with the author here: a company using AI-generated images in a published book that they charge money for is despicable. AI should be a tool artists choose to use to enhance their workflow, just like Photoshop and tablets. It cannot and should not replace them entirely.
I had no idea that Hasbro had done this. Have they released a statement trying to justify this, or are they just hoping that nobody will care?

From the comicbook.com article regarding what the artist did:
The pieces of art aren’t fully AI-generated but rather use AI tools to touch up or clean up pieces of the artwork.
I think you are getting upset over an AI outrage piece.
Not from comicbook.com, but close. Looks like you’re right: just more anti-AI nonsense. I wonder if there was this much vitriol when Photoshop first released.
I’ve heard art student friends 20 years ago talk about how digital art isn’t real art. I’ve also heard from them that in art history (although I can’t confirm) that oil painters had a similar opinion of acrylic painters.
It sounds like Mattel will disallow the use of AI generated images in future official works:
The Dungeons & Dragons role-playing game franchise says it won’t allow artists to use artificial intelligence technology to draw its cast of sorcerers, druids and other characters and scenery.
That’s why, in light of the recent revelation that Wizards of the Coast chose to include artwork that was at least partially “AI”-generated in the upcoming Dungeons & Dragons book Bigby Presents: Glory of the Giants, I will not buy that book or examine any creature in it in this blog unless and until the art in question is replaced with entirely original art by a human artist.
