#2They should also ban creating digital art, as digital art takes less effort than paper.

#5> Left unchecked, it’s not hard to imagine AI art crowding out illustrations that took days or weeks for someone to make.
This reminds me of what someone from the 1800's would say:
"If left unchecked, it is not hard to imagine photography crowding out paintings that took days or weeks for someone to make."
Or several thousand years ago when the pottery wheel was invented.
Or when humans learned to cast metals instead of having to chisel stone.
Art is the expression of human creativity. Art transcends the medium. In addition, making art more accessible to more people is a good thing.
There are probably a lot of people who did not consider themselves artists, but with creative use of prompts and img-to-img can actually create stunning works. That is a good thing, not a bad thing.

#6It's going to be interesting to see how this is going to get enforced in the likely future in which AI art becomes in every way indistinguishable from human art.

#7Art takes effort. Training models and feeding them information takes effort. AI is not magic. Art is just getting another toolset.

#8Perfect. A huge niche opportunity to focus on an art community dedicated to AI generated images.

#9Challenge accepted. How will they know?

#10They should also ban people that have seen more art than others as they may be inadvertently creating derivative artwork from their more thoroughly trained real neural network in their brain.
Purposely being facetious, but seriously, we will likely see more and more of these type of rules being applied to competitions or groups. It will be harder and harder to define the rules. At some point, it becomes moot. Did I draw it? Did my toddler? Was I on hallucinogens when I drew it? Did I use computer algorithms (filters) on any form of the digital art? If the intent is to preserve the "effort" that goes into art, fine, but that will be a really gray line. I guess it's all fine to have the rules, it's similar to the natural body building competition.
