Games publisher Wizards of the Coast has recently come under fire for using AI art after firmly stating that it would not be using artificially generated content. After fans noticed a promotional post that appeared to use AI art, the company was forced to admit to using "some AI components" in its new Magic: The Gathering marketing campaign.
While AI art generators are now a widespread tool, artist Dave Rapoza recently chose to cut ties with the company, highlighting its contradictory ways. With a slew of recent staff layoffs causing further contention, it seems that many fans were left disappointed by the company's apparent double standards.
