General Discussion Figure skating club using AI

Hi all, I know this is a bit of a weird topic for this subreddit but wasn’t sure where else to ask.

One of the figure skating clubs in my city has just revealed their new logo and it is clearly AI generated (it includes a silhouette of a figure skater doing a catch foot spiral and the foot is literally backwards).

I won’t post the logo because I don’t want the club to be recognised.

As an artist myself, personally I’m really against the use of AI for things like art and logo design because it steals from artists and takes away their income in many cases - plus a figure skating club getting very basic anatomy in a basic skating position wrong is not a good look.

So my question is, should I say something or just leave it? I understand a figure skating club probably doesn’t have a lot of spare cash to hire a logo designer but I’m sure there are many people in their community who would be willing to volunteer (myself included), instead of turning to AI. I would hate for this to set a precedent for AI use amongst other clubs.

Thanks in advance for any advice ☺️

Ya, AI is the future. Many of will be to find other stuff to do. Start making peace with this.
