I don't think I need to share screenshots to prove it, you can literally go to any pro-AI circle and see the hundreds of DDLC-generated images in the past few days promoting AI art or fitting it into their agenda. Not a single one even cared about DDLC until it became relevant to their interests.
Like, the AI-generated images aren't even "drawing" new styles of Sayori, or Monika, or the rest of the cast. It doesn't even disrespect the actual creator, Dan Salvato, but the artist behind the artwork of DDLC, Satchely.
The AI doesn't draw anything new. They manipulate Satchie's artwork to generate images in her exact style, emulating the official artwork, into pro-AI Propaganda with no distinction what's AI and what's drawn by her(Unless it's ChatGPT images, which are clearly and distinctly AI). They don't stop to consider if the artist is also okay with having her artwork and style treated as a propaganda piece for an agenda she might not agree with. Not that it matters, since the IP is owned by Dan Salvato, but the moral question is still there.
They can't claim to be all about creativity and freedom when they can't even respect the wishes of IPs to begin with. Look at Umamusume. The creators of the game made it very clear: don't make lewd artwork of the horses. A lot of them respect that and choose not to do it. There are still those who don't listen and do it anyway, but they get shunned very quickly for it. Why do they get shunned? Not for drawing the lewd but for disrespecting the rules set out by the franchise.
Dan Salvato made rules for his franchise; no AI-generated artwork of his game. Real fans will respect it and move on. Others will simply use it as an excuse to disrespect the "enemy" while continuing to generate pictures that disrespect both Dan Salvado AND Satchely.
Because they don't care about DDLC, they care about their agenda. It will always be about the agenda.
