Is an a.i. derivative image of a political figure considered art or a political figure? I'll poll my fellow mods on the rule 4. Interesting. Because this is the issue in Hollywood. I'll vouch for you, Stamets.

I don't see "AI" being a relevant factor here, it should be treated the same as if it was drawn, photoshopped or otherwise.

Although I don't know the full intention of the rule as it was originally created, I assume the intention to be avoiding political debate here. One of the easiest ways to accomplish this is by banning political figures, no questions asked, but that also prohibits a bunch of content that is unlikely to result in political debate.

At the same time, we have

Exceptions may be made at the discretion of the mods

so I would consider this an exception on that ground.

Genuinely didn't even realize this was AI until it got pointed out. If you wanna remove it I totally understand and you have my apologies.

IMO this post stays. It breaks the letter of the rule but does not break the intent of the rule.

Honestly didn't even realize it was AI until it got pointed out. My genuine apologies. If y'all wanna remove it then I totally get it

I like timetravel and mindbenders. The things AI can come up with can be surprisingly comical. I wonder what the original creator typed up in the generator prompt.

Oh same here. I think AI is going to be really amazing when it gets to a holodeck type point and you can just get ask them to make anything. I desperately want to see RDJs Tony Stark and RDJs Sherlock Holmes have to team up to take down a xenomorph.
