Statement on AI

In light of the release of AI graphic generators to the general public, I have taken a firm stance against the use of generators in both my own works, as well as the publications I compile and edit. Individual use of generators by artists using their own art (as conducted by some artists in the past) is their prerogative, but I have no desire to participate in it. The theft of art, exploitation of labor, and displacement of artists in the community at large goes against my ethics.
