Animé Los Angeles, which is being held at the Long Beach Convention Center in January 2023, issued a statement earlier today “Regarding...recent discussions involving AI-generated art”Al-generated artwork and its place in the convention space has recently become a focal point in many online discussions.
We at Animé Los Angeles do not condone or accept any form of Al-generated art piece being used within our promotional materials, nor sold in our Exhibit Hall or Artist Alley. In regards to our brand, we are very protective of the work that our contributing artists create and recognize the value they bring to our identity and convention space. Anything you see on our website, our promotional pieces, or our products is created by an artist that we have reached out to work directly with. Anything Al-generated is unofficial and not approved by Animé Los Angeles staff.
Art is Art.
I hope the AI convention bans anime
Thought this article was about Akumakon for a second. They've also banned AI artwork.
BREAKING: people have been selling it for years and will continue to do so.

Let this be recorded as, I, for one, WELCOMED, our AI overlords and await for my place in your kingdom to com. (Man, hope that robot d!ckriding was enough!)
As it should. It's art theft.
What were they 'wordsmiths'? How do you claim credit for AI art? I PUT THE WORD IN. ME! Spaghetti Shadow Zombie Lady Waterslide is mine!

Time has come for AI to take over 🤖 'AI life Matter!' 🤖☝️

That’s impossible as AI “art” doesn’t exist.
Some questions: Outside of the blatantly obvious, how will one determine accurately what counts? Will ai-assisted be lumped in as well, or just 100% generated pieces? And how will false positives (and negatives) be handled?

Good. It has no place in places that celebrate art, it can be shared in AI/Tech based conventions.
Good!
Hell yeah
Racist! This is probably why the machines will end up exterminating us one day. I just want them to know I like their art.
How easy is it to distinguish Ai art?
Nice

The animatrix warned us about this! It’s not too late, we can still welcome AI generated anime art into the United Nations to avoid the second renaissance
