Artstation only said they will let artists add a tag to any of their portfolio images that they don't want scrapped, but the tag will not be used on art by default (and AI may or may not ignore it). Also in related stories: https://www.gofundme.com/f/protecting-artists-from-ai-technologies
The three biggest issues: -AI generated reference packs being sold on Art Station. -Portfolios filled with hundreds of AI generated works from the last few months basically becoming spam. -Completely AI generated work in Trending Artstation hasn't really taken any strong stances or made any statements on those issues.
"But speaking as a site admin, in general it's not our job to police content. Where we do step in, and with prejudice, is when an artist is clearly stealing from another." Well, this might be one of these edge case where there is indeed a line to be drawn. Because this "we do not police content" position is precisely what…

Yes it just breaks up communities seems to always happen every so often, artisans,…
@pior doesn't mutual trust mean that community has to stay tiny?
