    you’re still asking for a character from a video game, which implies copyrighted material. write the same thing in google and take a look at the images. you get what you ask for.

    you can’t, obviously, use any image of Mario for anything outside fair use, no matter if AI generated or you got it from the internet.

      But the AI didn’t credit the clear inspiration. That’s the problem, that is what makes it theft: you need permission to profit off of the works of others.

        you need permission to profit off of the works of others.

        but that’s exactly what I said. you can’t grab an image of Mario from google and profit from it as you can’t draw a fan art of Mario and profit from it as well as you can’t generate an image of Mario and profit from it.

        It doesn’t matter if you’re generating it with software or painting it on canvas, if it contains intellectual property of others, you can’t (legally) use it for profit.

        however, generating it and posting it as a meme on the internet falls under fair use, just like using original art and making a meme.

          The users are allowed to ask for those things

          The AI company should not be allowed to give it in return for monetary gain.
