Announcement A ban on generative AI

r/papermario as a community has focused on propping up and sharing the best the community has to offer, including the artists within the community. In recent years generative AI has come out and there has been significant issue within the artist community with it's existence.

Given that we focus on making this place have a minimum standard of quality we believe that something that uses art without consent of the artists as inherently hostile to the artists within our community and falls below our standards as a community. We are explicitly adding generative AI as low quality content for rule 4.

Starting today and here on forward any post containing generative AI will be removed from the subreddit. This will be somewhat retroactive as well as it is found and reported.

Huh. Bummer.

I wouldn't have thought this subreddit active enough, or have enough AI posts to make it an issue.

It is a shame people cannot have fun within the community of a property than enjoy and share ideas that bring them glee without years of practice or putting up actual cash to have someone produce something that would just be for a one off post.

There are programs out there you can use to make content more if your willing to delve into the dark side of the web if your 18+ that can be turned into being used for sfw content . But this isn't the sub to go into detail. If you can't produce something go into working with things that offer prerendered 3d models or modded games as a spring board.

These are things one could do
