Enough with the AI Generated Art

I want to believe that inevitably AI can be used with ethical datasets and could be a collaborative tool for artists. Unfortunately, right now doesn't appear to be that moment. There's a flood of new accounts and existing accounts posting AI art that's been trained on thousands of other artists in order to publish a swarm of derivative and often hollow artwork.

The website is hard enough for newer artists to be found but these accounts flooding a bunch of AI art into the mix is severely damaging the community within the site. This isn't even bringing up the numerous accounts publishing AI art packs onto the marketplace hoping to swindle artists into thinking they're buying a reference pack when in reality they're just buying 900 different seeds of a prompt entered into an AI art generator.

I'm hoping this protests brings Artstation to address the situation and actively do something. Deviantart has basically been sunk by a flood of AI art and now the same is happening to Artstation. Protect your artists.
