Did you people even read the article? This is about an official artist creating official artwork using AI.
And expecting DMs to pay for artists to create fanworks of characters or other campaign backgrounds and whatnot is really outlandish, sorry.

@DarkThoughts @TheTango @RGB3x3 paying for a service is outlandish. Oh boy you need a reality check.

You think people, including poor ones, are going to pay hundreds of bucks for some artworks for their D&D sessions? And you think I need the reality check? lol

Maybe just stop the whole bad faith trolling entirely because this is just cringe.

People get art commissioned all the time though

Cool, but completely besides the point.

[–] SendMeBakedBeans@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Ah, you mean art for individual sessions. Got it, misunderstood that.

[–] ClydapusGotwald@mastodon.social 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

@DarkThoughts @TheTango @RGB3x3 you don’t have to pay hundreds for good art. Art is subjective. Please stop trolling.

The linked article doesn't provide any details, it merely states that an artist used AI to "create" or "generate" artwork. However in a different article about the same incident the artist claims that he only used an AI as a tool to enhance his own drawings, and provides before and after images. Assuming he isn't lying to cover his ass, IMO the AI contributed very little to the artwork.
