Lately I'm finding a lot of damaged(broken art) 2D items created by AI. Is it allowed to sell that here?

it is a very hard blow for the small 2d creators......

Hi there, I understand your concerns and frustrations about AI-generated content, especially if it's not of the highest quality or if it feels like it's displacing human creators. It's indeed a challenging issue. But I believe it's worth considering another perspective.

AI has the potential to be a powerful tool in the hands of artists, including 2D creators. While there may be AI-generated assets appearing on the marketplace, there are also many artists using AI to improve their own work, to increase productivity, and to take on tasks that were previously time-consuming or difficult.

By integrating AI into their workflows, artists could potentially create assets faster and more efficiently, allowing them to take on more complex projects, or increase their output. This is not to say that AI should replace human creativity - far from it. There's still a distinct difference in the results produced by AI and by human creators, as the latter are capable of nuances, emotion, and originality that AI simply can't replicate.

The key might be in finding a balance and making sure we, as creators, harness the benefits of AI to further our own creative capabilities, rather than seeing it as a threat. This way, we can continue to produce high-quality, original content that will stand out in any marketplace.

Of course, platforms should also have guidelines in place to ensure the quality of the content being sold, regardless if it is AI-generated or not.

I use ai -- but only to get an inference for a facial feature, then i take it to 3d creation to create characters. so AI can be helpful in some aspects of human creation. :)
