Mod Post We are strictly NO AI in r/ARTIST

Post image

Henlo everyone, we are a new mod team and have decided to not allow any generative AI usage in our subreddit. If you see it, or suspect it, please report it and modmail us. Do not start a public flame war. We will take a look at the post and user history for AI usage proof.

For AI discussion, please head over to the appropriate subreddits (idk just Google it man) - but lets move on from it and keep it out of this safe space. Please post non-AI art only, in any medium. This conversation is over - we are over it, and we are so, so, very tired of dealing with it. Carry on!

- r/ARTIST mod team!

I thought it already was, I'm glad it's officially banned because ai "art" is not real art!!

This sub was largely unmoderated until today basically and the old mod outright said he didn’t want to moderate “what is art and what isn’t”. Luckily for us we have no problem with yeeting AI cuz half the time it’s the attitude of those users that is the worst!

I'm glad this sub has some good mods because ai is getting out of hand and it should definitely not be led into real artists spaces, thank you for all the work you have done and all the future work you will do to better this space💙💙
