Science fiction writers, Comic-Con say goodbye to AI

SMRTR summary

San Diego Comic-Con and the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers Association have both implemented strict bans on AI-generated content after initially proposing more lenient policies that sparked backlash from their creative communities. SFWA revised its Nebula Awards rules twice, ultimately prohibiting any works created wholly or partially by AI tools, while Comic-Con changed its art show guidelines to completely ban AI-generated artwork after artists complained about earlier rules that would have allowed display but not sales of such pieces.
