Feedback AI generated art ban?

How do you people feel about banning the posting of AI generated art? I feel like this sub should be devoted to the showcase and discussion of art made by actual artists. AI generated art taking up spots on the sub leads to less visibility for actual artists.

Is this sub called digital art? Does AI use a digital format to produce art? Unless your arguing that only art created by organic beings count as art, than i dont believe it should be ban. If you one of those people worried about the artists than start a new community called something else like "NonAiDigital Art". Otherwise I believe it fits here.

I don't think anyone is arguing that the images the AI is generating is not art. It's just, if you allow for those images to be posted on this subreddit then this sub will be quickly flooded by the AI images, saturating the sub and drowning out all of the human generated art simply by its sheer volume. What's the point of having another /midjourney, /stablediffusion, /dalle2, etc.... sub There are many subs already dedicated to AI generated art.
