GalaxyCon Has Banned AI, "Art," From All Events

GalaxyCon is a popular purveyor of comic conventions. They are actually holding their first Saint Louis show this October, and I have been cleared to attend as press. I've been seeing it discussed online how they are banning any AI-generated, "Art," from future shows, with that word in quotations because so-called AI artwork lacks any soul/imagination/effort and isn't art. I applaud this zero-tolerance attitude to AI-generated imagery being sold as if it were an original creation. It was good to hear an AI, "Artist," was escorted out of Dragon Con recently, and conventions need to draw this, "Line in the sand," before comic conventions become a morass of vendors selling AI-generated slop. I am excited to attend GalaxyCon Saint Louis during the weekend of October 10th-12th and am pleased there won't be any supposed, "Art," created by AI there.
