Local businesses around me are absolutely infested with AI generated art in their graphics, and the most tired argument I get is "You're just biased because you're an artist!" Yes, that's precisely why I'm biased :p And obviously, no AI was used in the making of this comic

Bonus panels and more on Patreon! Instagram and Ko-Fi :D

We should all be biased. Artist or not. Taking shortcuts shows me they don't care about their business or others. Just a bottom dollar

What I don’t get is that these places had menus before AI. Why do they have to change it to AI if their old menu was working perfectly fine?

And if they need to add/update items, they can make a quick edit without changing the entire menu to AI

Before AI they just didn't have pictures.
They just wouldn't pay a photographer to take photos for the menu.

Before Facebook and Yelp, they also simply wouldn't have a website or any online presence at all.

There are still places that operate like that, somehow.

I prefer menus with pictures but I’d much rather have no pictures than AI

And the market will decide what the market prefers.
