    To the several people who reported this post:

    This community does not have a ban on AI generated images. Especially ones as silly and harmless as this.

    Should a user abuse AI generated images, such as spamming them, then action will be taken against them. But one-off silly images like this are fine.

      There are ethical concerns with the use of AI, especially image generation.

      c/dogs has a strict no AI policy, and it seems to be appreciated by our users.

      This decision should be reconsidered and I would downvote if my instance allowed. Almost every comment is against it here.

        I prefer to allow posts with controversial subjects that don’t otherwise violate any rules, such as AI generated images, because it allows for important conversations.

        I would rather allow the occasional AI image be posted so that people can discuss why AI images are bad.

      This take is this community’s equivalent to the sole c/dogs mod (who very recently took over) banning people for putting up facts about pitbulls: pitiful
