While images generated by artificial intelligence are a simple way to create images that perfectly fit your project, they should be used with the following considerations:
Professional artists are concerned that Artificially Generated images will affect the demand for their services. Artists’ intellectual property is also sometimes aggregated into the large databases that AIs pull from without the consent of the artists. The images, or even parts of those images, may also have been taken of individuals who have not consented to the use of their likeness as exhibited by the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike.
It is often thought that people of color are underrepresented or, in the case of Google Gemini, overrepresented, in AI databases.
Using AI images without citing the source of the image may still be considered plagiarism.
