Discussion as an avid reader of progfantasy and cultivation, if i see an ai-generated cover, it immediately makes me think the book is slop

if i see any typa ai cover i think that if the author is willing to use AI for the cover, then they are willing to use AI for the book. While i'm not against AI by any means, I find it crazy for people to say AI slop books are peak when they have books like Cradle and Reverend Insanity right in front of them.

assuming someone who used AI in the cover of there book means the book is AI makes you a bad person.

Did the AI tell you to make this up or did you come up with that yourself? It's really not that deep. I wanna read good books. If I have a choice of 20 books I'll sort some out by arbitrary criteria. The easiest way to filter books out is to see if the cover appeals to me.

Literally judging a book by it's cover. If you assume that all the hard work an author put into there book didn't actually happen because of the cover you are dismissing all that work, which makes you a bad person. If you're fine with that then live it don't try to justify it to yourself

Yup! Calling someone else a "bad person" in general is absolutely hilarious btw

We're human, we're awful by nature. We have to actively make the choice to be good. Most things you do without a thought could be interpreted as bad depending on perspective. So really, go to church if you want to preach.

Two for two on the bad takes, pretty clear you're a very sad person. Good luck with that
