    How would they even begin to enforce this? With the way AI art has been advancing, it will be nigh impossible to tell painted artworks from the real thing, and if an actual artist uses another artist as a reference, they will immediately be put under suspicion. I’m so curious to see how this will play out and what kind of moderation tools, if any, will be created to mitigate this. I feel like while this will help combat cash grabbers and asset flippers, this could become a real problem for traditional digital artists.

      That’s why I feel this is something they’re announcing for their own legal problems. Don’t think they’ll actually enforce this for people who actively alter their ai art to look authentic.

        This makes me wonder what kinds of legal problems they are facing that would lead them to make an announcement like this. Are investors threatening to pull out or is it to placate artists? Or another reason entirely?
