Would a network-wide ban include chat? Maybe I can't be too critical of it because I've posted AI images to chat, but chat isn't supposed to be serious academic prose like much of the network.

@Laurel I can't see any reason to ban AI generated content in chat. MSE main room, Tavern, already has a lot of AI generated images for several months, and everyone are fine with it. Same can be done with actual messages, within the CoC and ToS of course.

@Laurel: I'd defer to those who are more expert on that. If Chat's content is meant to be covered by copyright that could get complex. If it's an objective conversation about it then I don't think I'd care too much, personally.

While I basically agree, there are a lot of exceptions. Besides for Shadow's, there are also e.g. pfps.

@Adám: If you're saying that someone should be allowed to use an AI-generated piece of art as their avatar or in their profile, I'm going to firmly disagree with that. No reason to make carve-outs there, after all.

@Makoto It'll be their responsibility to deal with copyright (but that's already the case with pfps). I should be allowed to use "AI" to generate a pfp e.g. based on all the photos and images I created myself.

@Adám: It's been a minute since I've had to deal with this, but it's not the individual that receives a DMCA complaint, it's the site. They'll delegate all of the appeal process down so that yes, if you own the copyright on all the things then you can deal with it then, but it's not the case that these DMCA complaints are targeted so specifically to the individual.
