Hi friends, mod here.
I want to take a moment to address the issue of low-quality AI-generated content that occasionally gets posted in this community.
While /c/comicstrips hasn’t had a specific rule about this until now, it’s become clear that some AI-generated comics being shared fall well below the standard of quality we aim to maintain. These low-effort posts not only disrupt the overall experience for readers, but they also devalue the hard work of the illustrators and artists who contribute original content here.
Starting today, a new rule is in place:
AI-generated comics are no longer allowed in this community.
Thanks for understanding and helping keep /c/comicstrips a high-quality space for everyone who loves comics.
Just make a comic with stick figures. Cyanide and Happiness literally became famous for doing it and turned into a semi-refined art style. You don’t need AI if you got a good joke on your hands.
So did xkcd.
or sprites from a video game
Exactly, the art style doesn’t matter if the written content is good. But this doesn’t need to exclude AI at all, because as you mention the art style is not the critical piece. I don’t care if the art is made by AI, as long as the written content is good.
please dont remind me of loss comic
edit: ok…i think i need to drop some context with what im saying
Speaking of loss
You just lost The Game
Almost everyone, anyway
Was ready to unfollow and block.
Glad we decided to preserve the integrity of the art.Let the ai-bro tears flow.
How the mod ruled:
Great choice!
Awesome! Thanks for this decision.
Thank you for making this choice, and keeping this community worth visiting. And thank you for the hard work you do in moderating!
Excellent decision! The simplest way to enforce this would be to require all comic strip submissions to include a source link.
While I think Ai can make some cool images, it sucks at comics.
They look souless, have weird facial expressions and have inconsistent fonts.Stick figure comics are far better.
how do you feel about posting a comic that occasionally uses ai tools in it
