How do you feel about AI artwork used in your campaign?

I’m involved with a couple or PbP games that use it to help keep people involved and I rather enjoy it.

Just to be clear, I’m not talking about AI art being used in manuals. I’m talking about art being generated for use in a specific campaign.

Thoughts?

    I’ve created a showcase for my group using Midjourney so that they can see what it’s capable of. When we start our new campaign - in the next month or so - I’m going to spin up several variations of each character for our players to pick, based on the descriptions they provide (I’m going to try and post some examples of what I’ve achieved so far here, lets see what happens).

    Frankly they’re over the moon about the idea :)

      Ooh, these look great! I tried using midjourney, does it require a subscription at the moment? The free ones I’ve been playing with have been decent but these look way better.

        Yes it does, but it’s a pretty small amount - I subbed to the $10 tier for a month to put together test images for the group and then stopped my subscription, and I’ll do the same when I ‘create’ these characters - I don’t need access to that kind of tech all the time.

        If you’ve planned out a campaign I’m sure you could generate all the images that you need for that fee and then un-sub once you’re done.
