Police were called to Dragon Con after an artist was accused of selling A.I.-generated artwork at their booth.
Vendor Oriana Gerez faced backlash and was asked to leave, sparking heated debate across social media platforms.
Dragon Con currently lacks a clear public policy addressing A.I. art in its Artist Alley or exhibition guidelines.
Controversy follows past A.I. art incidents, with the Dragon Awards and Fan Expo Canada grappling with similar issues.

How do we know they sold AI generated images? Seems all the images on their site is hand made at least.

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
