I just found out about our policy of not allowing AI art (huge thanks for that, by the way), and coincidentally also recently heard that DeviantArt is currently swamped with scam accounts that use AI art to advertise bogus commission sales. So naturally, I am now suspicious of LITERALLY EVERY NEW ACCOUNT ON THAT SITE, but especially ones that are selling commissions and also don't show up on this site despite not being on the DNP list either. Since DA absolutely has no plan to deal with this and is in fact actively encouraging it, I feel like we're going to have to start up a whole new DNP list that's just "these people are all scammers posting AI art". Is that a thing that can happen? Is it being worked on already?

Or we can just blacklist DA as a source entirely; frankly I'd be fine with that too at this point.

This seems pretty ill-advised because there are artists who do manual work in addition to Stable Diffusion generations, and if somebody is incorrectly accused of AI generation we don't need to take part in spreading those accusations.
Deleted posts are much less visible than a wiki page or public list, and they're always related to specific uploads (instead of a blanket ban/deletion of an entire artist tag.)

True, somebody got banned from r/art becouse they were accused of using ai by a moderator, but they werent. You cannot trust nobody.

I suppose from now on, when an artist uploads a new drawing (or any other kind of art, like a 3D rendering), they also need to upload a "making of" video.
But that'll only work until AI learns how to make believable "making of" videos...

Artists are already doing this when they live-stream an art session, so it would probably not be too hard to automate.
And I'd want a "certificate of authenticity" when I pay for a commission.
